Regents want 4 percent tuition hike

By Penny Owen Staff Writer Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education suggest a four percent across-theboard tuition hike to begin next fall and will hold two open hearings to find out what the public thinks about it.

Also open for public debate is a two dollar-per-semester-hour student facility

fee proposed by the University of Central Oklahoma.

Together, the tuition and fee increases would raise the cost for full-time UCO students by about $100 per year for residents and about $150 per year for non-residents.

The first meeting will be held at 5 p.m. on March 12 at the State Capitol Complex in Oklahoma City. The second meeting is set for March 18 at the same time and place.

The proposed tuition hike is for all Okla-

homa colleges and universities and would be the fourth increase in five years, said state regents representative Jeanie Edney.

At UCO, the student facility fee would be resurrected from its removal two years ago, when students paid fifty cents per-semesterhour for facility care, said UCO Vice President Joyce Mounce.

The new two-dollar-per-hour proposed fee is earmarked mainly for maintenance and capital improvements of auxiliary ser-

vices, such as the University Center and dormitories.

It will also help pay for longer hours of operation for services such as Central and the 89er cafeterias, Mounce said.

The UCO facility fee is among the lowest in the state. Both Oklahoma State University and Oklahoma Christian University of Science and Arts charge $4.30 perSee Tuition, page 5

Bush campaign trail pauses in Oklahoma

By Sam Powell Staff Writer Blue skies, gentle breezes and the cheers of thousands greeted President George Bush Friday at the Oklahoma Christian University of Science and Arts.

The president appeared at the local university as part of what he said was a campaign media event designed to increase support for the Republican party.

During his 25-minute speech, the president addressed several political issues including the family, morality, taxes and the military.

Bush said he was pleased to be with some of Oklahoma's finest citizens and hoped they would vote to give him four more years in office.

Election held today

By Marcia Benedict Copy Editor Oklahoma voters will go to the polls today and select their choices of candidates for the 1992 presidential election.

Pat Buchanan, Tennie Rogers, Isabell Masters, George Bush and David Duke are listed on the Oklahoma Republican ballot, and Lyndon LaRouche, Jerry Brown, Bill Clinton, Charles Woods, J. Louis McAlpine, Tom Harkin and Bob Kerrey appear on the Oklahoma Democratic ballot.

Voters today also will decide State Ques-

tion 640, the controversial measure that would require a vote of the people for any future tax increases.

Although Kerrey quit the presidential race last Thursday, his name is still listed on the Democratic ballot.

See related chart, pages 6 and 7 Approximately 280 polling places will be open throughout Oklahoma County from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. for voters to cast their ballots. V

"We are in a battle for our future and we must leave young people the best possible legacy," he said. "We are fighting to protect our most basic institution, the family."

"We must work to track down dead beat fathers who won't pay their child support," he said.

The country was built on faith, morality and freedom and the people should work to restore those values, Bush said, as the primarily partisan crowd roared approval. The president also said that if re-elected, he will work to bring back prayer in public schools, another idea that was well received.

"There is something wrong when our kids can't participate in a voluntary prayer in the classroom," he said. "Parents, not some bureaucrat in Washington know See Bush, page 5

Matmen win NCAA II title despite top star's arrest

By Roger Groce Staff Writer Central Oklahoma's wrestlers grabbed their first NCAA II championship Saturday despite the loss of a top-ranked, AllAmerica performer who was suspended from the team last week after felony charges of concealing stolen property were filed against him.

See related story, page 8 Wayne Cole, 21, a junior from Norman majoring in physical education, was suspended from the team March 5 when UCO police informed coach David James of the charges. UCO policy requires that any athlete charged with a felony be automatically suspended from the team.

Tne loss did not deter UCO's grapplers in their championship bid, however. The topranked Bronchos crowned three individual champions and placed first in the national tourney Saturday night in Greeley, Colo. The win ended two straight runnerup finishes.

Randy Zellner, Keith Cunningham and Howard Moore all won titles for Wayne Cole UCO. "It seemed like everything was going against us, even before we got here, but the kids didn't get down," James said. "They stayed focused on what we came here to do.

Who needs a garage?

T

he familiar lament is heard all over campus every semester. "There just isn't any place to park on this campus."

In an effort to ease the parking squeeze that so many commuters seem to perceive, University of Central Oklahoma officials are considering construction of a multilevel parking garage.

This campus needs a parking garage about as much as Sam Walton needs another discount house. The funds, which could amount to as much as $3 million, would be better spent on additional classroom space.

Lest students be fooled into believing there is need for such an extravagant expenditure as a parking garage, aerial photographs taken of the UCO campus during the so-called "prime time" of 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. show a 300-slot lot holds only one car. Logic would dictate there are 299 too many spaces.

However, the shunned parking lot is way over there in BFE (Broncho Fieldhouse, Fast) and most students will say they don't want to walk that far. They just don't have that extra seven minutes. But some will admit that they spent far longer than seven minutes searching for that prime spot that never materialized; they ended up parking in a staff lot so they wouldn't be later than they already were. Whoever said America is in the throes of a fitness frenzy hasn't visited UCO. Campus Police Chief Bob Roberts said it best: "I think the difference is in terminology. There is parking; there's just not convenient parking."

Students obviously want convenient parking and some will pay $15 a day in parking fines to get it. So why would university officials want to raze that revenue paradise to raise a parking garage?

Before anyone gets too excited about a nice cozy, convenient garage, the proposed locations for the building are sites east of University Center or at the corner of Bauman and Ayers Streets. So much for convenience.

While the dream of the 1500 additional parking slots the proposed structure would provide is a pleasant one, the thought of the 11:30 mass exodus from that garage on one exit ramp is a nightmare that even Stephen King couldn't imagine.

And what about the 500-plus students who currently park in the lots on the proposed garage sites? Where will they park when the area is taken over with construction equipment and hard-hatted scratching machines? Will BFE fill up then? Probably not. Staff lots will just get more congested.

With enrollment growing every semester, this university is begging, no, screaming for more classroom space. Students are tired of being treated like sardines. A parking garage may be a nice idea in a few decades, but without a new classroom building there won't be a need for more parking spaces. Students will go someplace where they can breathe in class. And they won't mind the walk.

egarding Jim Watson's letter in the Feb. 27 edition of the Vista (Letters, "Violation of King's dream") regarding the racial discrimination of the Miss Black UCO pageant.

I have to agree with Mr. Watson's view. Can you imagine the uproar if we had a Miss White UCO pageant?

R

What about the Miss Asian UCO, Miss Hispanic UCO, Miss Native American UCO, Miss (fill in the blank with any race in the world) UCO? If individual communities organize and support such pageants, that's one thing. But this is a university, which orignates from the word universe, meaning all

people.

By denying anything but a completely non-discriminatory pageant, open to every student, UCO would take a big step forward in race relations.

We've got to stop segregating ourselves, people.

UCO student

Writer uninformed, student says am writing in response to Tom Chasteen's letter of Feb. 25 ("Sniveling brats should grow up") which suggested that the distribution of condoms on campus would lead to the labeling of his dorm as "a haven where homosexuals are encouraged to become roommates and engage in safe sodomy." I would like to say that this is not a rational thought, but is the result of uninformed homophobic speculation. The use of condoms is a health issue, not a moral one, and it is imperative that

I

all sexually active persons be encouraged to act responsibly, regardless of their sexual orientation. I fail to see how the availability of condoms would suddenly spur a rash of promiscuous homosexual liasons in the dorms.

I would also like to clear up some of Tom's confusion surrounding coed dormitories with 24-hour visitation rights, which he seems to envision as being proverbial hotbeds of fornication. After having resided in just such a dormitory for two of my undergradu-

ate years at Washington University, I can assure him that nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the arrangement encouraged members of the opposite sex to view each other as people first— as friends and study mates, not potential sexual partners. This may be disappointing to him, but it is true. So open your eyes, ears and mind, Tom, your fears are unfounded.

his letter is in response to the letter from Shemal Medawattage (Vista Letters, "Pageant criticized by students"). He speaks of Dr. King's dream, and then criticizes one organization for making itself "segregated from the university" which is not the goal of the Black Student Association (BSA) or the Singapore Student Association or the Malaysian Student Association, which he left out.

These organizations are there, in my opinion, to uplift their members and fellow students by saying "Hey, you're not alone," and its most important belief, "Be proud of who you are and where you come from." I don't believe that the intent of these organizations is to segregate, nor should anyone who looks at it rationally should!

one that wishes to assimilate into the American Society without being spat upon for doing so, and the other is not to lose his/her identity.

All minority groups fit into that struggle of wanting to create selfidentity.

Lastly, I would simply like to close with that for many weeks I have read in the Vista the debate between Dr. King's holiday vs. the message of his dream. When will we all realize that this battle is not to be waged in courts, or Congress, but in the hearts and minds of individuals here in America.

You can talk, protest, yell and scream, but if you cannot change the heart of my neighbor from riating me, then do you think he cares about this holiday?

I hereby invite Mr. Meddawattage to attend a BSA meeting, better yet, any minority student association meeting. Learn about them before criticizing.

. Columnist scoffs at pageants

W

hile never having had to put my neck on the chop ping block, so to speak, I was acthe on the fringes of the civil rights movement of the early and mid-1960s. We lent our support to the cause of liberty for all, but especially to equal rights and opportuniy for black people for the obvious reason that they were America's most unfairly treated group.

My role model at the time was Roy Wilkins (1901-1981), head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) from 1955 to 1977. This man put his neck on the block many times, and it saddens me today that few of my students, black and otherwise, have ever heard of him — nor of Bayard Rustin, nor A. Phillip Randolph, nor Whitney Young. I wonder if David Dean, who feels the Miss Black UCO pageant is a means of preserving African-American culture, knows of these black heroes who gave so much of themselves for a better America?

Mr. Dean needs to realize that no one is saying that members of his ethnic group nor any other should be "stripped of their heritage." Cultural background is important.

What Dr. James Watson seems to be saying, however, is that ceremonies which involve ethnic exclusivity have no place at public institutions. How does Anglo Pride Week sound? How about Miss White UCO? Bigoted? Certainly. How is Miss Black UCO different? Many feel it's not.

One other thing about Mr. Dean's letter bothered me. I have heard almost the exact phrases he employed used by members of

Column

o

the American Nazi Party, the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, White Aryan Resistance and similar groups. They long have spoken of how their race "has been stripped of its heritage;" how they "deserve to be recognized as a separate entity, in order to maintain some type of identity of race and culture in this country." They feel that "white people" have few rights. Ironic.

What has become wrong with an identity as a decent human being rather than a group identity? That's how many of us try to deal with our fellow humans — as individuals rather than as members of a group. Woody Allen expressed it well in his "Random Reflections of a Second-Rate Mind": "We're not talking here about exclusive 'clubs' that serve no good purpose; they exist only to form barriers...and provide additional differences amongst people so they can further rationalize their national distrust and aggression." Woody was speaking of Jews, but the application is universal. After all, ethnic conflict is one of the salient characteristics of our little planet.

Yes, the Miss Black UCO pageant is ethnocentric. And, may we ask, in what way does it help to preserve black culture? How gratifying would it be if a number of UCO' s African-American students would take the lead in asking for its abolition. After which they could join with all like-minded students in seeking the demise of the "other" Miss UCO pageant. Aren't such goings — on a bit out of date? Think about it.

Preserving heritage not discrimination am writing in regards to the statements that were presented in the Feb. 28 and March 3 issues of the Vista, written by Mr. Watson and Mr. Medawattage. It was very disappointing to me to see a faculty member of the university and a senior preparing to graduate into the community, voice concerns on a subject that they obviously know little about. Mr. Watson and Mr. Medawattage arrived at the conclusion that the purpose of the Miss Black UCO pageant is to discriminate against a certain group of people. Neither of the two had taken the time to review a copy of any application for a Miss Black pageant, they would have found that it is not stated that a contestant must be of a certain color.

I

Before the formation of the Doctrine of Equal Opportunity, beauty pageants were closed to black participants. As a result, black pageants were formed on a smaller scale, but have gained national recognition.

Even though pageants are now open to black participants, it is felt by many people that the pageant should be part of the celebration of our heritage.

Another point I would like to address is that the Black Student Association (BSA) is open to all students. Mr. Medawattage, maybe you should attend a BSA meeting to allow yourself to acquire a better understanding of its purpose, which is not to discriminate, but to allow students to learn about our heritage. Yes, there should be a

"melting point," but you should not forget our heritage. The BSA also functions as an avenue that allows students to express problems and concerns they may encounter as a result of attending a predominantly white university.

Yes, Dr. King did have a dream and someday that dream will become a reality and it is the responsibility of all citizens to continue to work towards that dream, but until that day arrives we as AfricanAmericans must do all that we can do to keep our right to equality on the forefront of all social issues.

Official says 'no' to SQ 640 n March 10, Oklahomans will be asked to make a decision that could be the most critical one they ever make at the polls. That decision, on State Question 640, will determine whether or not our state will maintain its representative form of government, or turn governing into a popularity contest.

State Question 640 would remove our state's ability to deal with emergencies, would automatically reduce Oklahoma's bond rating and would hamper our ability to recruit new jobs and economic opportunities for our citizens. Approximately $143 million will most likely not be budgeted for Oklahoma cities and towns.

The State Question calls for all revenueraising bills passed by the legislature with less than a three-quarters vote to be placed on the ballot at the next general election.

General elections are held in evennumbered years, or only once every two years. If this restriction is approved, what will we do if there is a prison riot, or critical

infra-structure needs, or another United Airlines bid? How will our state respond?

Despite what you may have been hearing, State Question 640 involves much more than the people's right to vote on tax increases.

—Gary D. Rader Weatherford Mayor Even after the legislature votes or a ballot measure is approved, under State Question 640 there would be another 90 day waiting period before a revenue-raising bill would become effective, adding additional delay.

Despite what you may have been hearing, State Question 640 involves much more than the people's right to vote on tax increases. Oklahomans, like citizens in 22 other states, already have that right, through

the initiative and referendum, to bring any issue to the ballot by circulating a petition and gathering a sufficient number of voter signatures. (That's how State Question 640 was placed on the ballot).

In addition, voters express their opinions on taxes and oher matters by choosing those who would represent them in the legislature. State Question 640 would effectively remove the respso ibility for providing adequate financial pport for essential services from the le ature. It would remove our legislator's adcountability to the people in this area and would destroy the legislature's ability to react to needs and emergencies.

For these and many other reasons and for Oklahoma's future, I urge you to thoroughly study State Question 640 and join me in voting NO on State Question 640 on March 10.

Tuition Continued from page 1 semester-hour, while El Reno Junior College charges $2.50, Mounce said.

Both tuition and fee increases would be applied to the 1992-93 school year, if approved by the state regents and legislature, said Edney.

Overall, the tuition increase would add $3.4 million to the higher education purse.

Still, tuition and fees account for only about 22 percent of the total expense for higher education in Oklahoma. The rest is paid for by the taxpayers.

However, UCO students pay for about 32 percent of their education; more than the state average, Mounce said.

In addition to more tuition, the regents have requested $73.2 million dollars more in state funding, Edney said. This was submitted to the legislature last December for approval.

This money would be used statewide for: • 245 new faculty members ($12.5 million); • a seven percent salary increase for faculty ($20.3 million);

However, Mounce said that UCO has been alerted to a possible five percent budget cut for 1992-93, although she doubts it will happen.

"This (warning) happens every year. I would be amazed if it took place because they've increased our appropriation for the last several years," said Mounce. "To roll us back would really hurt us, because we've made commitments to people and have gotten use to things the way they are."

The possible decrease results from new education expenses created by the education reform bill 1017, which passed last year, said Mounce.

UCO's budget is planned around both possibilities.

A decrease would mean freezing vacancies, eliminating some hourly employees (not student employees), and postponing some maintenance and capital projects.

An increase would mean hiring nine new faculty members, plus covering $800,000 in new fixed operating costs for UCO. The regents will decide on the tuition and fee proposals in April. V

Bush said he was proud of appointing a Supreme Court that follows a more conservative interpretation of the constitution, and does not try to legislate from the bench.

He said the court differs from the predominantly democratic Congress in that they want to raise taxes, while he wants to cut the capital-gains tax. If the legislature sends a tax bill to his desk, he said he would veto it "faster than an Oklahoma twister."

"I will use the veto when necessary to stand for principals," he said. "Will Rogers once said 'It's better to have termites in your house than congress in session.'"

Bush again received a rowdy endorsement when he said he favors a plan to help increase oil and natural gas production. He said the

N

best course is for Congress to pass his energy plan.

He expressed support for free trade and said international commerce should not be curtailed.

"Each day more and more American jobs are tied to trade, and the same is true for Oklahoma," he said. "Some of my opponents are pedaling protectionism. That's not the American flag they are waving, it is the white flag of surrender."

The crowd was visibly moved when the president said Americans don't run, they fight, and that America can out produce anyone, anytime, anywhere.

In closing he said he wanted to emphasize what is right with America, not what is wrong.

"God bless the United States of America," he said. V

Matmen claim 9th national title

By Justin Harper Sports Editor The third time was the charm for Central Oklahoma's wrestling team, who after two-straight NCAA II runner-up finishes, bucked the trend and won it all.

UCO crowned three individual champions en route to the schools ninth-overall and first-ever NCAA II championship Saturday in Greely, Colo.

The top-seeded Bronchos compiled 91.5 points, easily outdistancing co-runners-up North Dakota State and Portland State, who each managed 78.5.

Randy Zellner, Keith Cunningham and Howard Moore all claimed national titles for the Bronchos, while Travis Moman and Todd Drake placed third and Ryan Martin fifth.

Zenner, an 118-pound sophomore from Owasso, came into the tournament as the No. 5 seed and proceeded to knock off North Dakota State's No. 1-seeded Brian Kapusta 3-1 in an overtime semifinal match. Zellner then dispatched of Pittsburgh-Johnstown's Larry

Hohman to win his first national crown.

Cunningham, the No. 2-seeded 158 pounder, followed with a thrilling 6-4 overtime win over Cheyney's Kendall Southerland.

The sophomore from Mustang was on the verge of being taken down in the extra period, when he turned the tables on Southerland and scored the takedown and the title.

Moore then came on to clinch the championship for the Bronchos with his 9-6 victory over North Dakota State's Lance Koenig. The 167 pound Coweta senior closed out his brilliant career in grand style, finishing as a four time All-American and two-time NCAA II champion.

"It's an unbelievable feeling," said UCO coach David James, summing up the teams accomplishment. James, who won national titles for the Bronchos in 1979 and 1980, coached his sixth national team title.

Drake, a 142 pound junior from Andover, Kan., and Moman a 126 pound true freshman from Midwest City, regrouped after their semifinal losses to pull off three-

Cinderella cagers cruise to crown

Bronchs' earn playoff berth

By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

is

A 98-97 loss to Texas A&I Saturday in the finals of the Lone Star Conference post-season tournament wasn't enough to keep the Bronchos from qualifying for the 32-team NCAA II playoffs as the No. 2 seed for the South Central Region.

A&I's Daryl Johnson hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer, robbing UCO of a victory. The 23-6 Bronchos had two players earned all-tournament honors, however, including Reggie Evans and James Morris.

The Javelinas, co-champs with UCO in the regular season, rallied from a seemingly insurmountable 57-44 halftime deficit to pull within 85-83 with 6:15 left in the game.

Still, UCO led 96-90 with 2:39 to play, but tournament MVP Kyle Roher scored six of the final nine points as the Jays outscored the Bronchos 8-1 down the stretch.

Johnson's unbelievable buzzerbeater came after Morris had missed the back end of a one-andone, to the delight of a small, partisan Moody Coliseum crowd and a live regional television audience on Home Sports Entertainment.

"Give A&I credit," said UCO coach Jim Seward. "They are a great team. I thought we could pull

Despite their win, the Jays received the No. 4 seed in the regional pairings, set for Topeka, Kan., on Friday and Saturday.

A&I will play top-seeded and fifth-ranked regional host Washburn (26-4), while the No. 2 seeded and 12th-ranked Bronchos take on third-seeded Missouri Western (22-8).

Should the Bronchos win their first-round game against MWU, scheduled for 6 p.m. Friday, they'll take on the A&I-Washburn winner in the regional finals on Saturday. The regional winner advances to the quarterfinal Elite Eight and plays March 26 in Springfield, Mass. V

Lady Broncho head coach John Keely celebrated his 47th birthday in championship fashion Saturday as Central Oklahoma knocked off regular season champion and top-seeded Abilene Christian 87-85, laying claim to the Lone Star Conference post-season tournament title.

Three UCO players were named to the all-tournament team, including Ton'Nea Cox, who earned MVP honors. Jana Flanagan and lone senior Lisa Lowden were also selected.

The Lady Bronchos (17-11), competing in their first league title game, lost four of their last five regular season games and didn't receive an at-large berth to the 32-team NCAA II playoffs.

Nevertheless, UCO finished a storybook season after being picked to finish seventh in the eight-team LSC race.

"The girls really played their hearts out and proved very deserving of the championship," Keely said.

The Lady Bronchos beat sixth-seeded Angelo State in the first round, then upset second-seeded, pre-season favorite Eastern New Mexico in the semifinals before Saturday's mythodical triumph.

ACU, who finished the year at 17-12, had beaten UCO twice during the regular season. The Lady Wildcats were led by all-tournament selection Anita Vigil's 23 points.

UCO led by as many as 15 and held a 42-37 halftime advantage. The Lady Bronchos built a 61-46 lead with 14:15 left, but ACU rallied within 83-81 with 32 seconds left. But UCO hit fear clutch free throws to take an 87-81 lead with 15 seconds to go. Two late ACU baskets proved meaningless.

Cox led the way with 25 points, and Flanagan added 15. Lowden and Bobbi Hardy each scored 12 in the finale. V

Central Oklahoma's baseball team is on a roll, to say the least.

The Bronchos, winners of fivestraight games, swept three games from Abilene Christian last week and improved to 7-5.

ACU entered Lone Star Conferece play with a 10-5 record but dropped a 6-5 decision Friday, followed by 4-3 and 8-4 losses in Saturday's doubleheader. Tim Davis cranked a grand slam in Friday's win. Brian Wood added his third homer in Friday's opener. V

Study segregates math students TULSA, Okla. (AP) - A private school in Tulsa will offer girls-only math classes to try to determine if mixed classes cause girls to be less aggressive in learning.

"Boys are more bold," said Erin O'Brien, a seventh-grade math teacher at Holland Hall preparatory' school. "Girls are more reticent to be put up for shooting down."

School spokeswoman Rochelle Dowdell said the classes are partly in response to a report released last month by the American Association of University Women called "How Schools Shortchange Girls."

The report contends girls and boys enter school with equal abilities. but girls are behind at the end of 12 years. It also suggests gender bias undermines girls' self-esteem and discourages them from studying math and science.

Fuhrer portrayal causes furor THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) - An Auschwitz survivor was sent to give youngsters a lesson about the Holocaust after a fifth-grader put on a swastika and mustache and delivered a speech portraying Hitler as a victim of mistreatment by Jews.

After the boy's address, which won a prize in an oratory contest, school district officials limited students to speeches about historical figures who have had a positive influence.

That drew protests from teachers who said the policy "sugarcoats" history.

On Wednesday, the Los Angeles-based Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust studies arranged for an appearance at Westlake Elementary School by Renee Firestone, a survivor of the Auschwitz death camp.

"I told them Auschwitz was not just a concentration camp," the 66-year-old woman said later, "This was a place which the German government referred to as a destruction camp, where people were brought for one reason - to be killed."

Wa'-Mart in hair-care tangle LI I ILE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - A hair-care manufacturer says Wal-Mart Stores Inc. didn't respond when the manufacturer asked the nation's largest retailer to stop selling defective hair-care products.

John Paul Mitchell Systems won a temporary injunction ordering Wal-Mart to take the products off store shelves, Michaeline Donley, chief operating officer of Paul Mitchell Haircare, said.

Donley said the products - a hair conditioner and hair spray - were supposed to be returned to the company to be destroyed but ended up in the hands of a distributor, and from there found their way into Wal-Mart discount stores in several states, including Arkans:i.s. Texas, Missouri, Colorado and Kentucky.

Wal-Mart spokesman Don 3hinkle said the company could not comment on matters in litigation.
