Crowning two individual champions, the CSU wrestling team romped to a record fourth consecutive NAIA National Championship Saturday in Wheeling, W.Va, easily outdistancing runnerup Alaska-Pacific by 21 points. The Bronchos had actually wrapped up the title in Saturday's consolation round, but capped off the tournament in fitting fashion when Todd Steidley won the 142-pound individual championship and Johnny Nimmo captured the 150-pound crown. After trailing Southern Oregon by two and onehalf points following Thursday's opening round, the Bronchos stormed into the lead Friday night, winning 10-of-11 matches to carve the 21 point lead. "Friday night was the key," said CSU head coach David James. "The kids hung in there when things got tough and we came back Friday night and did what we had to do.
"I was concerned after the first two rounds (Thursday)," James continued. "We put three guys in the finals and that's where we scored the big points. That popped us up about 20 points on everybody. If we hadn't done that, I'm not saying we wouldn't have won it, but it could have been hairy." Steidley pinned Jeff Dravis of Minnesota-Duluth at 2:45 as the Tulsa junior finished the season with a 30-match winning streak. Nimmo, a freshman from Del City, rallied for a reversal with 22 seconds left in the match to upset top-seeded and defending national champion Ed Sernoski of Simon Fraser. Nimmo was named the tournament's outstanding wrestler in a vote of the coaches. Sernoski had defeated CSU's Stoney Wright for the national title in 1986. CSU's other finalist, Brett Beams, lost when Chuck Phipher of Southern Colorado scored a takedown at the buzzer for a stunning 7-6 win.

Mayor to teach Lillard discontinues assistant position due to budget cuts By Shannon Blockcolski Editor
The position of Assistant to the President of CSU has been
discontinued as of June 30, according to Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president. "During the past seven years of
economic downturn, I asked all of the administrators to cut back on personnel costs. Even though it was a difficult deci.son, I decided
T uition cost at CSU lowest in 8 state region The cost of attending institutions in The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education remains well below the regional average, according to a study of student costs released by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.
The study compares student charges in Oklahoma with those in nine surrounding states. Student charges for both resident undergraduates and graduates in Oklahoma's senior colleges, such as CSU, rank lowest among the eight states in
the region having state senior colleges. The average charged resident undergraduate students in Oklahoma senior colleges is $660, and $620 for graduates. The highest average for resident undergraduates at senior colleges is in Colorado, $1,227.
I needed to make cuts in the president's office," Lillard said. Carl Reherman, also mayor of Edmond, has served as assistant to the president since 1981, after he came to CSU as a tenured political science professor, Lillard said. "Mr. Reherman has served the position very faithfully and in a most admirable way," Lillard said. Reherman will return in the fall 1987 semester as an assistant professor in the political science department.
"I've been looking forward to going back to the classroom, I'm working on the fall schedule and am ready to begin teaching," Reherman said. He will be teaching two classes of freshman government, one course on urban politics and a new graduate course titled the politics of economic government. Lillard presented the proposal of discontinuing the position last month to the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, who approved the decision.

Opinion Page Reherman helps CSU students? By Shannon Blockcolski Editor In the Associated Collegiate Press review of The Vista, the judge criticized the newspaper for its lack of praise in editorials. I would like to praise Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president, for doing something that should have been done years ago — eliminating the position of assistant to the president. I always questioned the ethics of having the mayor of Edmond, Carl Reherman, being paid a nice sum of money to play with the radio and
television stations at CSU, to hand out awards at ceremonies and to have very little say about administrative matters.
Commentary
What has Reherman done in the last few years to make CSU an integral part of Edmond? I think this town would not be hampered, in fact, would be happy, if the university closed.
Edmond does not cater to the college students. There are no "college hangouts," and the small number of places students can go are too expensive. Only a few businesses offer student discounts, and with the cost of living so high in Edmond, many students cannot afford to even buy groceries. At the annual homecoming parade downtown, one doesn't see many members of the Edmond community who are not parents of CSU students or alumni. The people of Edmond
show no support for CSU sports, but they will turn out in droves for a high school football game, which, incidently, is played in the CSU stadium. Can any student on this campus actually say what Reherman does as the assistant to the president, or even who he is? Being a politician, and obviously a successful one since he is running for his fourth term as mayor, Reherman can help CSU more by teaching political science courses
Editorial:
Movement needs to support working mothers By Sue Starkey Student Writer What ever happened to the Equal Rights Amendment? The women's movement resulting in feminist demonstrators burning their bras and the spectacle of Oklahoma women carrying home-baked bread to congressmen at the State Capitol seems almost ludicrous now. So, it may come as a surprise to the women and men poised in the middle of these two extremes that the bra burners and the bread bakers are still at it. Congress had barely begun its 100th session when Sen. Ted Kennedy, Mass., proposed reconsideration of the ERA despite the apparent fact ERA is
unpopular and would probably do more to defeat women's common goals then to strengthen them. Bread baker Virginia Smith, a senator from Nebraska, has proposed a provision be written into the Constitution guaranteeing the right to life of unborn persons, which would not exempt even women whose pregnancies
result from rape or incest. Isn't it about time the men and women who occupy the position now inelegantly called the "mushy middle" begin to protest all measures taken on behalf of women which are not helpful? Sylvia Hewlett, an economist and feminist author of "A Lesser Life,"
argued the real issues today are not so much access to jobs and education, but to enhance recognition that the two goals of most women are having a family and earning a living. Most women would probably like to do both, and the challenge of the women's movement today is to help them achieve this.

Closing of Indian 'smoke shops' illegal To the editor: In recent weeks, several "Indian smoke shops" have been illegally closed or raided by the State Tax Commission under the direction of Chairman Cindy Rambo and consent of Gov. Henry Bellmon. These shops were on restricted Indian land, over which the state has absolutely no jurisdiction. When Oklahoma was admitted to the union as a state in 1907, it gave up all claim to unappropriated land "lying within" the boundaries of an Indian tribe or nation. In fact, under the provisions of the United States Public Law 83-280, the state of Oklahoma could have amended its constitution to assume jurisdiction over Indian tribes within its borders between 1858 and 1968. Oklahoma did not do so.
It seems apparent the state's desire to assume jurisdiction over Indian tribes coincides with its need to make up a shortfall in state revenue. Legally, when one drives on Indian land, one technically leaves the state of Okahoma, is in the jurisdiction of another state and is obligated to abide by its laws and ordinances. The Indigenous Tribes Oklahoma do not try to collect tax on cigarettes sold on their land, so why does the state persist on enforcing its laws on Indian tribes? Robert Jenkens, a Cherokee Indian who is "spearheading this goon squad" for the State Tax Commission, and his illegal antics were brought to trial with the Creek Nation in Tulsa County. The judge ruled the state has no jurisdiction on restricted Indian
land. The judge told the Tax Commission to stay away from Indian smoke shops and bingo parlors. Jenkins and his comrades are wasting the tax payers money and wasting the time of the already overcrowded court system. Tax revenue generated through smoke shops and bingo halls are used to supplement elderly nutrition, women, infant, children's feeding and other social programs. It is being proved the "John Wayne mentality" in our court system is over. If the state of Oklahoma is going broke, it is not because of Indian tribes.

Dimension News: World, state and local Senate may hear Poindexter A Washington Post report Sunday said former National Security Advisor John Poindexter is prepared to tell Senate investigators he told President Reagan two different times funds from the arms sales to Iran were being funneled to Contras fighting Nicaragua. In exchange for Poindexter's testimony, the Senate panel investigating the arms-contra deal said it may grant him immunity. Poindexter stepped down after the IranContra scandal broke in November. Both Poindexter and fired aid Lt. Col. Oliver North have refused to testify before the Senate, using the fifth amendment. Poindexter's testimony, if given, would differ from Reagan's claims, who said even though he knew of the arms sales to Iran, he was unaware funds from the arms sales were going to the Contras.
Shultz, Shevardnadze to deal Secretary of State George Shultz is being sent by President Reagan next month to discuss a proposed arms deal with the Soviet Union. The agreement would remove medium range missies from Europe, allowing each side to keep only 100 missiles apiece at the country's borders. Shultz will travel to Moscow to discuss the proposed treaty, as well as another possible summit with Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev. The talks between Shultz, who is scheduled to return from the Far East, and Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze, are scheduled for April 13-16.
Firestone plant gets new lease The local union shop in Decatur, Ill., decided to take another vote on the concessions package approved by the union at the Oklahoma City Firestone plant. A 79 percent majority approved the concessions package. The new vote shifted the balance of nation-wide ballots cast last month. The next step for the package is approval by the international union, a step at the end of last month that Oklahoma City plant workers thought unlikely. Firestone company spokesman Bob Troyer said the reversal of the Decatur plant vote will result in the lifting of the closing notice previously posted for the Oklahoma City plant.
OSBI in court over dismissal A former Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation agent is taking his dismissal, initiated more than two years ago, to federal court this week. A federal jury is expected to decide whether Leon Gillum was released from his job because of allegations he made about another agent to someone outside the agency or if he was released because of an alleged investigation initiated by bureau chief Ted Limke. Limke said he believed Gillum was responsible for leaks to the press concerning deficiencies in bookkeeping at the agency. In December 1985, the State Ethics and Merit Commission overrode the decision by Limke to fire Gillum, and ordered him reinstated.
Liquor store thief booked A Guthrie man, arrested on charges of the armed robbery of three Edmond liquor stores, is being held in Oklahoma County Jail pending arraignment. Edmond Detective Theresa Mangion said Robert Emmons, 26, a Guthrie native, was arrested last week after being shot by a liquor store attendent while he was allegedly trying to rob an Oklahoma City liquor store. Besides allegedly robbing three Edmond liquor stores, police said Emmons also is suspected of robbing two other liquor stores in Oklahoma City.
Readers' forum
Who needs parking? To the editor: Has everybody in the country forgotten, with a few exceptions, they were born with two legs? I can not recall the last time I heard of a dime being spent on this campus somebody didn't write The Vista to ask why it wasn't being spent on parking lots. The basic idea behind budget allocations is to divide one's money up into categories deemed necessary, and to disburse what funds are available into those categories in percentage amounts representing the best overall benefit to the campus. It's clear to me, from the information which the administration puts out, there are funds allocated
annually for parking lot construction and maintenance. Since this money comes from a source other than activity fees, it makes no sense to point to a project like the student senate's building plan and ask why the money isn't being spent on parking lots. A quick look at the senate's budget showed it was only allocated $14,000 for the year. The amount would solve nothing if it was spent on parking, and the greater good would not be served. It made me sick to see the "Civilized Tribe" having to stand on the corner with their straw boaters in hand, trying to raise the money to accept an invitation to
the Montreux Jazz Festival. Their invitation was an honor and privilege for America, Oklahoma, Edmond and CSU, as well as the members of the group. They had to perform several fundraising concerts to pay for the trip, and that's not right. It already should have been paid for. But what I hear from fellow students is, they should have had to pay for 100 percent of their expenses, since the miniscule sum they were allocated would be wiser spent on achieving the American Dream: A front row parking spot for everybody. Mark Pfeifer
Tougher education needed To the editor: American higher education is "not underfunded, but unproductive and underaccountable," according to United States Secretary of Education William J. Bennett. He is correct. A degree from a university, Central State included, ought to represent a quality education. In college today, the traditional liberal arts education has all too often been neglected as students opt for career-oriented, specialized degree programs. The result, Bennett said in a recent speech in Texas, is a system of higher education "indistinguishable from a shopping mall, in which all classes are created equal." The active role colleges and universities once took in setting academic priorities has fallen as colleges — with fewer people from which to choose than when "baby boomers" filled the classrooms, coupled with rising costs for education — have tried to become more marketable to maintain enrollment. Not to long ago a student with a liberal education had a broad background and understanding of English, foreign languages, science, mathematics and the history and cultures of Western Civilization. Today, what once took years of study is lumped into a general humanities course lasting one semester. CSU is fortunate to have people who have the courage to take steps to reverse this trend — people who will meet Bennett's recommendation "to offer the intellectual guidance that suggests we have some judgment about these
priorities." One such person is Dr. Cliff Warren, dean of the College of Liberal Arts. Dean Warren has submitted a proposal that would signify students graduating with a degree from the College of Liberal Arts would have earned a degree in the tradition of a liberal education. Under his proposal, incoming freshmen would test to determine which level of class difficulty they should be placed. Another test would be taken at the conclusion of the sophomore year to ensure that the student has learned a general, core curriculum. During the junior year, a project incorporating individual, original research within the student's discipline would be required. Finally, the senior year would have the student writing a thesis over a topic within his major. In addition, at some point in the student's career, he/she would be required to fully complete two years of foreign language. Such a program, at CSU or at other colleges and universities, would force students to work hard throughout their college careers. Colleges, as a result, would become more accountable as they are forced to set priorities. Likewise, students' accountability would increase, but would also have incremental steps to take in which to meet the established priorities. Finally, a sense of accomplishment would be instilled within the student, and the diploma received after years of concentrated effort would represent a quality education. John D. Buttry
Holes make commuting difficult To the editor: This is another desperate cry for help from the depths of the canyons in the parking lots. Can someone please throw me a rope? I'm already late to my 8:40 class. He'll never believe this one. I feel I am running an obstacle course every time I come to class. If the traffic on Broadway Extension doesn't get you, count on the mortar range (alias the parking lots). It was even worse with the rain.
Thatcher Lake was the least of my worries, the Great Lakes in the parking lots is where I almost drowned. Is it that costly to put some tar or concrete in these canyons before the entire campus is lost in the depths of the earth? Isn't it cheaper than providing new shocks for each student every month? Make your choice, CSU administration, fix the canyons or provide every one with a new pair
of oil field shocks every month, before more students are lost in those great depths. Yes, these are exagerations now. But given a few more months without repairs and they won't be too far from the truth. Please do something, soon. I'm working my way through college, like most of the students here. I can't afford new shocks every semester. Especially with this talk of tuition increases. Samantha Spencer

By Shae Naro Associate Editor There is a new movie out, "Angel Heart," with only one word to describe it: bizarre. The movie deals with the occult, voodoo and contracts with Satan. The end results are far from expected. "Angel Heart" begins like any other detective movie, a deserted alley with smoke coming out of the street reminiscent of a Mickey Spillane novel. The similarity ends there though, the camera pans to a bloody body with the throat slashed. The blood and gore are very graphic throughout the movie. Review
The year is 1955 and Harry Angel, played by Mickey Rourke, is a small time private eye until he meets Louis Cypher, played by Robert De Niro. De Niro hires Rourke to find a man who has welched on a contract agreement. Rourke is wary of taking the case, but the money is too good, so he goes on a wild goose chase for Johnny Favorite. Favorite, who has been missing for 12 years, was a singer before the war. Rourke's chase takes him to Louisiana and into the middle of a group of voodoo lovers. From the beginning the religous overtones are strong. Cypher looks like a modern day Satan, which he turns out to be. Lisa Bonet makes her movie debut as Epiphany Proudfoot, a voodoo priestess. Bonet does a good job, except for a scene with the chicken at a voodoo ritual. An understanding of voodoo and the occult is needed to understand this movie. Throughout the movie Rourke flashes back to the same dream, which makes no sense until the end, actually the movie makes no sense until the end, and even then there are still some questions to be answered. The acting was superb, De Niro and Rourke were wonderful. The sex was not much but the violence was bad. The common thread throughout the movie were the fans, there was always a fan going, their meaning was lost on this writer. The mystery of the movie was good, but the movie itself leaves an eerie feeling. The audience does not walk away feeling good about this one.
During his search for a mysterious former big band singer, Harry Angel, Mickey Rourke, becomes involved with Epiphany Proud foot, Lisa Bonet, the daughter of a voodoo priestess.
King's 'It' novel horrifies readers By Almarah Uwzayaz Student Writer "It," Stephen King's new novel, is a wonderfully intense novel created to horrify and entertain the reader to the point of exasperation. It succeeds. It began on a hot June day in 1958 when six boys and one girl faced an evil presence none of them understood, but their young minds conceived to be reality and not fantasy. It ended in August with these seven children in search of a creature of unimaginable horror
in the drains of Derry, Maine. They were in search of "It." Then it suddenly ended - or so they thought.
Review
It wasn't until one night in the spring of 1985 any of them thought about what had happened that summer of 1958. Mike Hanlon, once one of those children, made six calls to: Stan Uris, accountant; Richie
"Records" Tozier, L.A. disc jockey; Ben Hanscom, renowned architect; Beverly Rogan, dress designer; Eddie Kaspbrak, owner of a successful New York limousine company; and "Stuttering" Bill Denbrough, bestselling writer of horror novels. As adults, they have forgotten the days of their childhood, forgotten the day when they were losers, and suddenly a forgotten promise pulls them back to Derry, where they all lived — 27 years ago. The town where "It" was — or is.
They must reunite and face "It" again, together. This time it has to be for good. But they have yet to behold or comprehend "Its" true reality; or fantasy? "It," very meticulously illustrates the gap between the understanding of a child and the way a child perceives things to be real or make-believe, and the understanding of an adult. Stephen King, once again, succeeds in inescapably suspending your imagination in space, while he does his work of horrifying you.
Campus cafeteria ranks lowest in Edmond restaurants By Sabrina Stanley Student Writer The 89'er cafeteria received the lowest health inspection score in Edmond, according to recent reports from the Oklahoma CityCounty Department of Health. The cafeteria was given 79 points out of 100. An average of 80 percent of all restaurants in Oklahoma score in the 90 percentile.
Following the Rules and Regulations Pertaining to Food Service Establishments, the grading is based several factors, including: storage of food, presentation of food, cleanliness of personnel, sanitation and storage of equipment and utensils. The Health Department is required to make two random inspections per year on unsuspec-
ting food facilitators. If a critical violation is cited, the establishment has one chance to correct its mistake. A score of less than 60 percent will result in closing the facility. Only 50 percent receive critical violations. "We are here to educate food business operators, not to put them out of business," Noble D. Stanfield, Chief of Consumer Protection, said.
A course certifying food service operators, including college level instruction on food service sanitation, is a requirement for management in Oklahoma City, Midwest City and The Village. The Edmond City Council refused to pass an ordinance making the course a requirment for Edmond, even with the course being offered at CSU.
Forum to highlight oil, gas industry concerns From Staff Reports A special forum on Oklahoma's declining oil and gas industry will be presented at 7 p.m. March 24 in Mitchell Hall.

Veterinarian focuses on minority education By J. Burst
Student Writer Dr. John Montgomery, a black veterinarian for 36 years, spoke to a small group of veternary medical workshop students March 3 at the invitation of the CSU science department. Montgomery spoke on the opportunities available in the field of veterinary medicine. He stressed the importance of minority students to excel in education. "These are times that demand brains — sharp, inquiring minds," Montgomery said. "Your potential is the sky, so make a commitment and do it." Only three black veterinarians work in Oklahoma, and less than 2 percent of all veterinarians in the United States are black, Montgomery said. "Children coming from affluent families have access to travel, encyclopedias and other assets a disadvantaged child will never know." said Montgomery. "Minority children need role models, someone in a responsible position they can identify with." Montgomery recalled the first time he assisted in an operation. The patient was a cow with an eye disease, and he was told to swab the eye and keep it dry. When the first incision was made, Montgomery, "keeled over until someone threw water on me." He said that was the first, and only, time in 36 years he has ever fainted. Montgomery said veterinary medicine is a field needing more people. The industry involves $50 billion, with jobs available in teaching, administration, research, regulatory work, zoos, meat inspection and labratory animal medicine. "This is a job women handle well," he said. `fMy daughter became a veterinarian and worked as my assistant for two years — she loved it." Montgomery finished his speech on a humorus note, "Veterinary school is difficult, so don't try it alone. Get married and it will be easier for both of you."

Wrestling dynasty comes full circle VISTA Sports
By John Helsley Sports Editor
In 1979, CSU won its first NAIA National Championship in Wheeling, W.Va. Saturday the Bronchos claimed a record fourth straight national title and their seventh in nine years in what has become a dominating dynasty. The Bronchos also captured this year's NAIA title in Wheeling. Ironic, considering it will be their last as CSU moves into NCAA Division II competition next year. "1979 was a special year for me," said Broncho wrestling coach David James. "I was an individual champion on CSU's first national championship team that year. Now, to go back as coach and see the team win it at the same place in our last year of NAIA, it's very satisfying and a great feeling." James' squad wrapped up the title Saturday afternoon when Jerry Goss and Darren Peaster won fifth-place matches, but the finals were left and the Bronchos had three wrestlers going for individual championships. Todd Steidley put an end to a fabulous season as he won the 142-pound crown, pinning Jeff Dravis of Minnesota-Duluth at the 2:54 mark. The junior from Tulsa cruised through the tourney winning each of his matches convincingly. His closest match was a 12-7 semi-final win over Steve Giadone of Southern Colorado.
"He won 38 matches this year going into the tournament and I had no doubt that Todd Steidley could be a national champion," James said. "I've said it before and I believe that Steidley could be a national champion at any level. "He got Dravis on the edge of the mat, did a hip tuck and threw the guy to his back," James explained. "He squeezed him and flattened him like a pancake." In the night's next match, Del City freshman Johnny Nimmo rallied with a late reversal to down defending national champion Ed Sernoski of Simon Fraser 6-4. Nimmo was named the tournament's outstanding wrestler after beating the top-seeded Sernoski 150 pounds.
"We are leaving the NAIA in style and on top" =11•1■11■
"The reason that Johnny Nimmo is successful is that he's not shy to work," James said. "He works hard, is dependable, responsible and he earned the title. "He came into our program as a freshman at a weight where we
had a returning national runnerup (Stoney Wright). Wright injured a knee, Johnny took over and now he's a national champ. Johnny had a brilliant high school career, but finished second two times. His win was an emotional moment for the entire team." The Bronchos just missed winning a third individual title when 167-pounder Brett Beams was taken down at the buzzer by Chuck Pipher of Southern Colorado and lost a 7-6 decision. Beams was leading 6-4 with seconds remaining. But the Shawnee freshman had been penalized for stalling twice and to avoid a possible two-point stalling penalty for holding on, he let Pipher up. Pipher then immediately shot in and scored the takedown for the stunning victory. "That was a heartbreaker," James said, refering to Beams' loss. "I felt Brett was the superior wrestler and he outwrestled the guy for six minutes and 45 seconds. But you've got to wrestle the full seven minutes. Brett had a great season and a great tournament, it was just one of those things." CSU finished with 92.5 points, while second place Alaska-Pacific had 71.5. Southern Oregon was third with 64.25 points and Adams State placed fourth with 62.75 points. The Bronchos clinched the title when Goss won his fifth place match at 134 pounds 6-2 over Jeff Yerous of Adams State. Peaster also placed fifth when he got a forfeit from Todd Ponick of Wisconsin-River Falls at 158. Senior 190-pounder Bill Ogilvie placed sixth for the Bronchos and freshman Shawn Fleming finished seventh at 118. In CSU's last NAIA season, the team broke their own record of three consecutive team championships and tied Adams State with the most all-time team championships with seven. "I'm proud of the nine guys who went to nationals and the rest of the team members too," James said. "We lost some AllAmericans from last year, had some true freshmen in our lineup and we molded into a great team. We are leaving the NAIA in style and on top."

Sports Profile: Doug Folks By John Helsley Sports Editor
111111111
Photographic Services: Dan Smith
Doug Folks is in his sixth year as CSU Sports Information Director, and he's just where he wants to be.
Although he's just 29-yearsold, Doug Folks has already found a job he would like to settle into for the rest of his working life. Folks is the CSU Sports Information Director, in charge of preparing media guides and press releases for various sports, compiling statistics, serving as department historian, providing media with all pertinent data before, during and after athletic contests, and serving as liaison between the media and the athletic department. Most larger sports-factory universities have full staffs to handle the various sports information duties, but at CSU, Folks is assisted by one parttime student-assistant. Still, Folks claimed he wouldn't trade his job for any other like it in the country.

"I feel like I have the best job in the profession," Folks boasted. "I'm my own boss and I make all the decisions about what goes on in the department. I get to work with some super people and I really enjoy working here. "All my family has been rooted in Oklahoma and I don't think it would be a good move for my family if I was to leave," said Folks. "I don't see myself going anywhere else." His family includes a wife of six years, Terri, a 1980 CSU graduate, and their son Jordan, who is almost six months old. Folks' CSU ties go back to his days as a student. After attending Western Heights High School, Folks moved on to CSU, where he served as editor of "The Vista" and president of Sigma Delta Chi, The Society of Professional Journalists. He was graduated in 1979 with a bachelor's degree in journalism/public relations. Following graduation, Folks moved into a spot at the Edmond Evening Sunas a sportswriter, mainly covering CSU sports. "I went in with no sportswriting experience whatsoever," Folks recalled. "I had an interest in sports and I never really had a problem with it (sportswriting) once I started."

sports information, became available in 1981. Folks was named to the post effective July 1, 1981 and he admitted, "I was in the right place at the right time. "It was an easy transition from the Sun," he added. "I had done some part-time work here, and had been around CSU sports because that was my beat. I had a lot of duties at the The Edmond Sun, and that really helped." Folks' media guides have won awards in three sports and his 1986 Wrestling Guide was judged as the best in the nation by The Sporting News. Guides for each of the Broncho sports are compiled during the year. Combined with putting out news releases, keeping statistics, working with the media and accompanying the Broncho teams on many road trips, the SID position becomes quite a demanding position. "The only really bad aspect (about the job) for me is the amount of hours you put in for the pay," Folks said. "I often work 60-70 hours a week, but it's not any different at other schools. The good thing is that you're getting paid for watching balls bounce. "Sometimes it gets hard working the late hours and with the travel, but I really enjoy it," he continued. "It is always so easy to look forward to another game."

Poll shows aid not missed The results of a poll concerning the possiblity of tutoring services at CSU have been released by the Faculty Senate. Out of 100 students polled, 22 are freshmen, 15 sophmores, 34 seniors and two graduate students. According to the report, the average amount of hours taken were 12 to 15, with 25 of the students taking more than 15 and only 10 taking under 12. Only 12 of the students asked have ever been tutored. Of the people asked, 50 percent thought a tutor would be helpful, 16 said most definitely, 19 said definitely, six said greatly and nine said not
at all, the poll stated. The most convenient time for tutoring is 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. with 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. being another popular time, according to the poll. Some think 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. is a good time while five said they were not available at all. If a tutoring sevice was offered, 27 students said they would seldom use it, while 23 said they would use it frequently, 18 would use it often, 22 very little, and 10 not at all. The subject which needs tutoring the most, according to 41 students, is math; business is the second biggest area with 19;
science and biology, 15; liberal arts, 11; and computer science, nine.
The grade point of students polled was: 37 have a 2.5 to a 3.0, 36 have a 3.0 to a 3.5, 14 have a 2.0 to a 2.5, 11 have a 3.5 to a 4.0 and two were not given. If tutoring could help the grade point, 52 said none at all and 52 said a little, 21 said definitely, 15 said most definitely with four saying greatly. Of the students asked, 57 said they would be willing to be a paid tutor, with 43 saying they would not be willing, according to the poll.
Club elects honored artist as officer The art club has elected a new president and vice- president for 1987. Julio Gonzalez, art major, was elected president, with Claude Westfall, photojournalism major, as vice-president. Westfall was a recipient of the Oklahoma Centennial Celebration Committee's Award of Merit for his entry in the emblem cornpetition designed for the 1889 Land Run Celebration. The celebration will take place in conjunction with the Olympic Festival in 1989.
"I was honored to be recognized. I am not your everyday artist who has had an education," Westfall said. "I have raw talent, which needs refining as well as the mechanical and technical skills that enhance any art. "My favorite mediums are photography, sculpting and painting and drawing and painting. I love art. Julio and I work well together and hope to instill a new attitude in the club." Teachers and art students are invited to attend the Senior High
School Art Festival on April 3 in the University Center, the Art Building and Evans Hall. Jo Ann N. Adams, coordinator, art faculty, graduate students and professional artists will serve as evaluators and presentors. For this festival the Art Division has been divided into 12 classifications, the Craft Division will have eight and a new division will feature nontraditional media with two classifications.
