By Price Oswalt The 27th annual Bronze and Blue Revue talent show, will be at 7 p.m. Thursday in the University Center Ballroom. "This years theme is a vaudville theme called 'Do You Remember When'," said Colleen Garside, sponsor of the University Center Activities Board (UCAB) which is sponsoring the revue. Garside said there are two catagories, bronze with individual acts (one to four performers), and blue with group acts (five or more performers). Those entered in the bronze division are Kenny Ott, Candice Cash, Sam Hendrick, Joanie Gregory, Celia Patman, Kevin Hess, the Baptist Student Union and John Burrus. The group acts include Alpha Gamma Delta Fraternity, Sigma Kappa Sorority, a band called Two Hour Parking, a group called Stray Cat Strut, Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity and a group called Zoot Suit. Garside said all the acts will be judged by seven judges on the basis of theme, costume, originality, difficulty and entertainment value. "This years judges are John E. "Skip" Wagnon, director of special events; CSU Foundation Inc.; Dean Hyde, associate professor of art; Pat Flippin, drama coach of Moore High School; Warren Williams, KATT Radio; Karie Ross, KOCO-TV Channel 5; Wade Carter of Wade Carter Enterprises and Roger Cooper, KWTV Channel 9," Garside said.

Allen leads Oklahoma campaign for Mondale By Tonia Sykes The 1984 presidential election is 19 months away. However, for one CSU student, the campaign to amass support for his candidate starts now. Lee Allen has been appointed chairman of the Oklahoma Students for Mondale Organization. "I will be coordinator for all the campuses across Oklahoma to muster support for Walter Mondale for president in 1984. However, the first priority is to find the appropriate female counterpart to chair the organization," commented Allen. "We always try to do that in the Democratic party (male and female counterparts). It could be someone from CSU, but we're also looking at two women from OSU and one from OU." It's going to be difficult to get a Mondale campaign generated because of the time factor, Allen said. "For those who are politically unaware, the general attitude is `Who cares? That's (the election) too far away.' However, it is a sign of the times. People are really upset with the national administration and they're jumping up and down all over the country." Allen said it's pretty well conceded by the powers-that-be in the Democratic party on the national

level that Mondale will come out the winner at the convention. "Mondale had more power than any vice-president in the history of the United States; consequently, that gave him more experience and more practical use of his abilities." Although Mondale does have some small problems with foreign policy, he's building his bridges back and getting that resolved, Allen said. "When it comes to domestic problems, where we're having our problems today, Mondale's a master. He's one of the most educated people we have up there (Washington) with the possible exception of Kennedy, and Kennedy's already endorsed Mondale." Allen said he feels that Kennedy's endorsement practically assures Mondale of the New England vote, and with the Carter strongholds in the deep South, Mondale will probably get those votes also. "California is fed up with Reagan. They didn't like him as governor, so they got rid of him. They want somebody else in Washington. Whether it's the Republicans in LA or the Democrats in San Francisco, they don't want Ronnie," he said. "However, we don't want people to get the impression that Mondale's comfortable with 'I'm

going to be the Democratic candidate.' We're out to work for it because we want to get it fair and square. "As time goes on, especially this fall, Reagan will have to decide if he's going to run. The minute he does that, it puts our campaign on the road. We'll know if we're running against Reagan or X No. of other opponents." The Midwest block is the Democrats' problem, according to Allen. In Kansas, they've got Dole; they also have Arkansas, New Mexico and Arizona which they're not sure of. Mondale will probably not do as well in Oklahoma as the Democrats would like, he said. "John Glenn is pretty strong in this state; he'll probably win the nomination from Oklahoma. Therefore, Oklahoma is a prime target for us." The best way to target an area is to recruit students — get them involved, get their support and get the machine rolling, Allen said. "This is where the organization will become instrumental. Tradition dictates that younger students

are more concerned about their campus activities; consequently, the upper 20's and early 30's are usually the targeted age. "We don't see that on this campus. Most of our politically concerned students are younger than 25. We do have a broad range of ages in our Student Senate, but most are younger than 25." Politically motivated people cannot be determined by age, Allen said. "You can't just pick an age and say these are going to be political and a different age is going to be apolitical." The fact that CSU is a commuter school is a great concern, he said. Commuters that come in from Logan County, Oklahoma City, Del City, Midwest City and many other smaller communities include a very broad age range. "I think part of the problem at CSU is that there is just too much apathy built up across the board. OSU has a high percentage of commuters. They're not a commuter school like we are, but they're still very active and very vocal. "OU is vocal for other reasons.

They're the No.1 university; they're expected to hold up the `big brother' image. They're also expected to be the leader which is fine. We need a leader. "But CSU needs to take up the `little brother' image and get more active. That's not to say more radical — just take part and not just on the national level. We have local elections coming up in Edmond. We have problems in the CSU school community that the Edmond political machine should be concerned with but it's not. The reason it's not, Allen said, is because they (the politicians) know there aren't any votes coming from CSU. "CSU as a block does not vote for anybody or anything. Edmond can have something on the ballot affecting CSU directly, like putting a major highway through our campus, and nobody from CSU will vote on it. "We have a roadway problem in front of University Center. We've tried for two years to get something accomplished on that bump and the city council, the mayor's office and the city Continued to page 3

Kennedy chosen outstanding graduate By Price Oswalt Tom Kennedy, criminal justice management and administration major, has been selected as CSU's Outstanding Graduate Student for 1982-83. Kennedy serves as the director of the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI). He received his bachelor's degree from CSU in 1972. He has served as chief of detectives for the Victoria Police Department in Victoria, Tx. and as chief of police in Junction City, Kan. Kennedy joined the OSBI in March of 1973. He moved to the position of deputy director by 1976 and to director in February of 1978. Kennedy's service includes membership on the Governor's Task Force on Crime, Governor's Advisory Committee on Crime, Board of Mexico Legal Examiner's Advisory Board, Oklahoma State

Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Control, Chemical Test Board of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Sheriff's and Peace Officers Association, Federal Bureau of Investigation National Academy Associate, Governor's Mini-Cabinet on Public Safely Matters and the Commission on Children Youth. Kennedy was selected at the age of 29 to attend the FBI National Academy, one of only 200 selected during 1966. In addition to Kennedy's professional activities, he has served for several years as a member of CSU's Criminal Justice Advisory Board. In that position, Kennedy has supported the development and growth of criminal justice at CSU, relative to both oncampus and off-campus activities. Kennedy will receive his master's of arts degree in May.

Opinion Page Faculty would be better campus administrators Letter to the editor: I hate to be called rebellious, because

when it comes to rules and the law, then I am one-hundred percent behind them. We need them and it would be chaos without regulations. But as everything else goes, we must change with the times and rules are not right for every situation. If our bureaucracy did not bend everytime a different situation would come up, could you imagine where we would be? Everything may crumble at anytime. To get to the point, the administration of CSU is past due for their adjustments on rules. For instance, the rules of breaking your housing contract is so obsolete. The rules to break this agreement is as follows: 1. You have to be married. 2. Move back home with your legal guardians. 3. Be at least 24 years of age. I wished someone, would tell me, how many people are going to be living

in the dorms, at a commuters college, at the age of 24. It had taken me up to the first week of February to enroll, because of the changes I had to go through. I had to go all the way to the presidency and even past him to get into school. Now I am back in school, but now you really get to hear the humorous part. I have to get a deferrment because we all know that going to school without any help is devastating, especially tuition. Low and behold they send the bill to my apartment. Great, only they send it to where I live last summer instead of where I live now. Thanks for the instructors here, or I would be skeptical of all competency here at the university. It was the only way I found out I owe the university, but it is after I had been dropped from the computers. So now, I have to go through all the monotony again of "chain of command". Again, I am a stickler for rules and regulations, but you can get redundant with anything. I have an idea. Let us change the faculty and administration around. But then it would be an excellent university, with everyone graduating with the I.Q.'s of pound cake. T.J. Eddy

Infant death not part of our society Letter to the editor:

Well folks, Oklahoma is in the news again and its not favorable news either. A recent article in the Daily Oklahoman revealed that many doctors in federally funded hospitals are allowing physically or mentally handicapped children to die by witholding the basic care needed for these infants to survive. • It was also stated that in two instances children were allowed to die here in Oklahoma hospitals. I think its appalling that we can stand by and do nothing while doctors who, by the way, are supposed to save lives, allow newborns to perish by starving them simply because the baby has a handicap that may hamper it later on in life. I thought trying to create the perfect race went out with Hitler. I didn't realize that it was alive and well in the U.S. It was also stated in the article that sometimes the parents requested that the baby be allowed to die and the doctor would comply! People, are we going to wake up and realize that we are not a perfect race and that this world is not a utopia? We cannot sit by and allow these people to kill innocent babies for the simple fact that it has one leg shorter that the other or may not be able to speak perfectly. And will it stop with handicapped babies? What is to stop the parents from killing the child because its eyes are blue instead of brown, or they think that it is ugly and might not be socially accepted? I guess that I should try and understand the parents point of view and realize that it would be hard on them to raise a handicapped child, but I look around and I see people with handicaps

doing things that people thought would be impossible for them to do. One example is the artwork that Greg Burns produces. He is handicapped! All that needs to be done is to take the time and have the patience to care for these children and let them grow up and be a part of this society, and

perhaps they will teach us to make this a better world. We cannot have people playing God and killing babies simply because they do not measure up to the standards of the parents' idea of what a perfect child should be. Matthew Driskill

State,local, world news Florida man attempts suicide A Florida man convicted of selling his two infant sons attempted to commit suicide after he learned that his oldest son died of injuries sustained in a foster home. Miguel Angel Ocasio, 28, convicted along with his wife Luce Milda, 21, last June of selling their children for $300 each, attempted to kill himself by swallowing rat poison. Their 2-year-old son Oscar, died after being taken off of a respirator at Lee Memorial Hospital, said the parents's attorney, Leonard Liszewski. Liszewski did not know Ocasio's motives and commented that, it was obviously the situation and asked how anyone could talk to someone who had just tried to kill himself. He said that they have just had one tragedy after another and he hoped that this was the last one.

McCullough noted that Wright's mother decided he would be an architect, MacArthur's mother moved into a hotel off of the campus of the U.S. Military Academy when he entered school and Roosevelt's mother moved to Boston when he entered Harvard. He also said that Truman called his morn several times a week and, while in the first grade, Johnson wrote a poem entitled, "I'd Rather Be Mama's Boy."

manager's office have all said, `Absolutely, we'll get that problem resolved.' That bump is still there. "The only way to get anything accomplished in politics is the political method of owing. Any politician who is elected to office owes his constituency. When CSU elects not to take part in a campaign or not to vote, then it is not the constituency — the electing body. "I don't think we should be able to hold officials by the throat, but at the same time, we are a major tax-paying base in this city. We spend a fortune as residents and as commuters. We buy our gas here; we eat here and we shop here. A great deal of our expendable income stays right here in this community. "I think the local politicians should take an active role in being concerned for the people (at CSU), but we can't expect them to if we don't do our part. It's a twoway street." At 25, Allen is a veteran politician. "I have a fairly long history of family members who have been elected officials. Consequently, I got involved. Although I never really had any formal political training, I've had some very good leadership and training from people in a powerful political structure — especially in California. Allen dropped out of college in 1976 to join the military. "I was stationed in Sacramento but developed a fascination for San Francisco. When I got out of the military, I got politically involved in that city's government."

The political structure in California is extremely rigid, according to Allen. There are basically two types — the machine structure and the family structure. "San Franciso works by the machine. If you can get on the ladder and into the machinery, you bide your time and eventually escalate. "I was in the right place at the right time. I made connections with two politicians who were already seated and I served as County Commissioner for two terms. I was 19-years-old — the youngest elected official in the United States. However, I no longer hold that title, a 14-yearold got elected to the weed control board in Arkansas!" Allen said younger age is an attribute in California — they have senators his age; in Oklahoma,

it's a detriment. He ran for city

council in Guthrie but got booted out because he was three weeks too young according to Guthrie's latest charter. During the last 18 months of the Carter Adminstration, Allen was the White House presidential advisor for the state of California and the western region. Allen said that appointment came about because he had done a lot of work for the Democratic party in the 1976 Carter campaign. As presidential advisor, Allen greeted Carter every time 'he visited California and furnished Carter with names and titles of officials and dignitaries. "The President can't keep up with the names of 30,000 people when he's going from city-to-city. It was my job as advisor to make things run smoothly," he said.

Lillard's contract considered by Board of Regents Thurday CSU president Bill Lillard's contract will be considered Thursday by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges. Lillard and the presidents of the state's five other regional universities will either have their contracts renewed for another year or ended at the end of the fiscal year in June. The meeting will be held at 10 a.m. Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, room 110 of the Administration Building. It is open to the public. The regent's Personnel Committee will meet at 4 p.m. Wednesday to make recommendations on the presidents' contracts. The Building Committee will also meet at 2 p.m. Wednesday to open bids on CSU's Health Sciences Center. The bids will be considered by the full board on Thursday.

Colorado dorm set ablaze Thirty-three students in the four story Belmont Residence Hall at the University of Southern Colorado jumped from windows in order to reach safety during the buildings fifth and worst arson fire in the last ten days. The fire was set on the women's floor of the university's only dorm, and witnesses reported that the lawn outside the dorm was littered with victims waiting to be taken to the hospital. Karen Davis, resident of the second floor B wing said that she heard screaming in the halls and when she opened her door she saw fire and smoke, she then jumped out of a window. She also added that the alarm on her floor did not go off while all other alarms did. Another resident, Julie Haynie, said that she smelled gas and when she went to look she saw a flame headed straight for her room. Officials said that two students were suspects but no arrests have been made. They also reported that all five fires were set on the second floor but this was first major fire to be set.

Law violates students rights U.S. District Court Judge Donald D. Alsop saying that the law would require male students to prove draft registration is "likely" to violate sudents constitutional rights has issued a preliminary injuction against the law. The Minnesota Civil Liberties Union, one of the groups involved in the suit, said they would ask Alsop to set a hearing date and seek to have the injunction made permanent. The law was signed by President Reagan last September and it requires male students to prove draft registration in order to receive federal financial aid. Alsop said non-registrants could incriminate themselves and provide evidence to establish their own guilt. Gerald B.H. Solomon, R-New York, the author of the law making draft registration a requirement for financial assistance, said that the selective service system would appeal the injunction if it becomes permanent and he is confident that the law will be upheld. Alsop's ruling is binding in Minnesota and will set an example to other judges around the country, commented Dan Lass, attorney for the student-funded Minnesota Public Interest Research Group, which brought the case.

The instructor utilizes approximately 30 films and monitors each students reactions. Carl E. Breazeale, assistant professor of safety education, said perceptual and manipulative skills are learned with the simulators.

"This is just one part of their driver's education program," said Breazeale. "In addition, we'll be working on the driving range and actually be on the road." Breazeale explained that most of the handicapped students were injured in either automobile, motorcyle or driving accidents, and are now vocational rehabilitation clients. He added that the program helps students to be self sufficient. The drivers training program is

Jazz Band Two bags top honors By Kathie Slutter The CSU "Jazz Band Number Two" won first place honors at the Kansas State Jazz Festival recently. The jazz octet, who competed for the first time, also won first place in their division. "This is the fourth year CSU's jazz band has won this contest," said Lee Rucker, music director of the band. "They won the past three years and in 1978. We didn't compete in 1979." Eleven students from the music groups also won Outstanding Musicianship Awards. This is the largest number of individual awards out of the 12 participating

colleges, according to Rucker. Students receiving these awards were J.D. Wiggins, Tray Burton, Robin Wade, Chris Vincent, Hayden Riggs, Chris Kelsey, Lisa Nichols, Greg Tivis, Rich Dimonico, Karen Klinglesmith and Blair Montgomery. While at the festival the students saw a performance of the big band, Toshika Akiyoshi--Lew Tabakin. "Just hearing the band was worth the trip to Kansas," said Rucker. The Kansas State Jazz Festival is a regional contest approved by the National Association of Jazz

liTIWTAL Quarterback heads list SPORTS of CSU football recruits

Vista photo by Jim Freiberger

Quarterback Dwain Banks takes a snap from center Toby Daughtery as the Bronchos prepare to open spring football drills. Cliff Burney sets out on a pass route.

By Mike Sherman Sports Editor One would think that the coach of a national championship team with 16 of 22 starters returning for at least one more seasom would have such a difficult time recruiting. This was the situation CSU head football coach Gary Howard was faced with when he hit the recruiting trail this year. But Howard isn't disappointed in the least with the talent he brought in. "We needed some younger players in all areas," said Howaid. "Granted, we have quite a few returning, so we didn't have to go out and totally rebuild. We just took our time and analized and evaluated a bunch of players and came up with some I feel can really help the team." Howard's prize recruit may be Glynn Walker, a quarterback from Clinton, who led his team to the state championship in the 1982 fall. Walker rushed and passed for more than 2,300 yards and was honored as the Offensive Player of the Year on the Daily Oklahoma's All-State team. All-American quarterback Randy Page will play his final season next fall. Although, Howard isn't ready to call Walker his "signal-caller of the future," he said his potential is unlimited. "He had outstanding statistics in high school, and of course he played on an outstanding team. We've got a good back-up quarterback right now in Dwain Banks, so I'm not saying Walker will step in after Page is gone. But I think he can compete for the starting position with a little experience." Howard also signed Shawn Stephenson, another quarterback, from Ada. Charles Bell, Walker's teammate, will also attend CSU. Bell, who made 138 tackles at defensive tackle for Clinton, could be moved to linebacker. said Howard.

James pleased with wrestlers' NAIA effort By Mike Sherman Sports Editor Most universities would be delighted with a wrestling team returning from a national tournament with four All-Americans and one national champion. Some universities may have a celebration, but not here. Mark Allen (158), Gary Astle

(167), Benny Coleman (177) and Ronnie James (142) were AllAmericans. James won his third straight individual title. But there was a feeling of disappointment among many fans last week when the Bronchos didn't comeback from Minot, N.D. with a championships — which would have been their third straight title.

But at least one person wasn't terribly disappointed. First-year coach David James said he felt that his team faced an uphill struggle from the start of the tournament. "I knew when we went in (to the tournament) we had to do everything right," said James. "With six wrestlers, you just don't have that much room for mistakes. But I wasn't disappointed because every match we went out there and wrestled hard." Nobody on this campus — excluding the few who made the trip to the "Great White North" — knows much about what happened there. They only know that there won't be another banner hanging in Broncho Field House this year. Fans who don't normally even bother to attend the regular season matches have

decided that the "good 'ol days" are over. "Yep," they insist, "those days when 'we' had six national champions are gone." These people may be right. After all, how often is that a team can accomplish such a feat? And maybe the wrestlers just didn't have it this year. 118-pounder Mickey McGowan and Joe Starzenski at 126 were on the injured list all season. Both were factors on last year's national championship squad. Gary Astle fought to mid-season with an ankle injury. Sure James and Coleman were back, and both wrestled well all year. Yet, there were a number of question marks at the other weights. The Bronchos was a youthful squad with a new coach. How many teams can win under such circumstances? Maybe the 1980 U.S. hockey team that

knocked off the Russians, but few others. A rule enacted by the NAIA committee in the fall required that a wrestler must qualify individually. Southern Oregon qualified 10 and won the title. It always helps to have an entire squad qualified, if you have your sights on a team title. But you can bet your Broncho buttons that they didn't wrestle the likes of Oklahoma State, Oklahoma and Nebraska to get there, the bronchos did. With that kind of competition, they were lucky to qualify six. But James is not in any hurry to alter the schedule for next year. "I want to keep our program competitive," said James. "I'm going to have to do something to get our kids qualified. Maybe I can bring in some more NAIA opponents. But I don't want to cut back on our schedule. "I really believe we can become better wrestlers by wrestling the top teams. I'm in favor of keeping OU and OSU on the schedule because I think that is the way we can improve." Another way James is looking to improve is through recruiting. "It (the high school talent) has been as good this year as it has for the past five or six years," said James. "There is a lot of talent out there and we're going after it. I want to wait until after the NCAA's to start, so things can cool off a bit. After that, we are going to get busy and have some kids visit the campus." WRESTLING NOTES: James said the tournament proved to be a learning experience for him as well as some of the younger wrestlers. "I found out that you've got to have good seedings," he said. "If we would have had them, we could have snuck in there and won a few matches that we didn't. A good record going in is very important."

Bronchos extend streak to 7

Vista photo by Jim Freiberger

Look out! CSU's Brett Turner ducks a pitch that was a little too close for comfort during Thursday's first game with Cameron. —

By Robert Slankard Darren Linden, whose single minutes earlier tied the game, walked home with the winning run to climax a wild and error-filled 12-11 Broncho win over the Cameron Aggies here Thursday. CSU had a much easier time in the second game of the doubleheader, winning 9-0 behind the pitching of Barry Crow. Linden's run highlighted a two-run Broncho rally after CSU had surrendered the go ahead run in the top of the eighth. With one out Kevin Dixon trippled to right field and scored on Linden's single. Bob Bailey then followed with another single, moving Linden to third and Brett Turner drew an intentional walk to load the bases with one out. Cameron's strategy failed as Guy Hardaker also coaxed a walk, sending Linden home for CSU's sixth win of the year. After spotting the Aggies an early two run lead CSU struck for four second inning runs and two more in the fourth to take a seemingly safe lead at 6-2. But in the sixth inning Richie Land greeted starter Mike Welch with a single and took second on an error. After walking the next batter Welch was relieved by George Hauser whose first batter, Mike Hopper, also singled to load the bases. Tony Capuccio followed with a grounder up the middle which scored a run while Hopper was forced out at second.

CSU's 6-3 lead still seemed fairly safe untill the next batter ripped a double, scoring two runs and derailing the Broncho express. Before the inning was over Cameron had scored eight runs on four hits, four walks and three errors. CSU seemed in trouble of dropping their first game of the season, trailing 10-6 with just an inning and a half left, but actually the show had just begun. Not to be outdone, Cameron committed four errors in the bottom half of the sixth inning as the Bronchos tied the game up on only two hits. With two out Robbie Carnes began CSU's second rally with a walk. Todd Green doubled and Carnes scored on an error from the shortstop. Dixon then reached first on an error and Bailey sent Green home with a single. Bailey had a hand in the wierdest play of the game following his second base steal. The catcher's throw appeared on target but shot through the shortstop into shallow centerfield. Cameron still seemed safe as the centerfielder ran up to grab the lose ball, although the only think he ended up with was a mit full of air as the ball sailed under his legs and towards the fence. This comedy of errors scored both Dixon and Bailey. Neither team scored a run in the seventh, sending the game into extra innings. The Aggies scored their run on two singles and another Broncho error, CSU's seventh of the game. However, Ron Maxwell, who pitched CSU out of the sixth inning jam.

Hornbeak shatters hammer mark

Trackers break three records, establish one By Donna Bennett The CSU's men's track team seems determined to break all the school's records, if the Abilene Christian Invitational Track and Field meet is any indication of what is coming up. CSU came home with three new records and established one new record. Gilbert Hornbeak set his third straight school record in as many meets by placing fourth in the hammer throw. His throw of 150'4" broke Craig Martin's record of 144'5" set in 1982. Kent Kadavy took sixth with a 121'6 3/4" effort. In the running events, Johnell Sloan set a new school record in the 100 meter dash and took third place. Sloan broke the record with a 10.45 and ended the tie of 10.50 held by Clifford Chatman (now with the New York Giants) in 1978, Mark Weimer in 1980, and

Sloan in 1982. Rodney Hawkins ran a 10.42 in the preliminarys, but pulled a muscle in the finals and was unable to finish. Ronnie Parks established a school record for the 10,000 meter run and took first place with a time of 31:39. Jim Brackeen was second in 32:51.5. Laurence Austin set a new record in 110 meter high hurdles and brought home a fifth place win. Austin's 14.40 surpassed Delman Porter's 14.6 set in 1979. Pitre ran a 15.35 in the prelims. "Laurence Austin has improved in the hurdles," said Coach Paul Parent. "With a little better technique, his times should really improve." In the discus, Hornbeak's 162' 7" didn't place. Keith Keel's try went 145 feet and Alan Erwin threw 144 feet. Bryan Coffey threw the javelin

180 feet and Joe Scott went 150 feet. Neither placed. The Broncho shot putters didn't place. Hornbeak went 49'2", Kadavy went 46 feet as did teammate Keel. Erwin threw for 42 feet. Scott Raper vaulted 14 feet but that wasn't good enough to place in the pole vault event. In the 400 meters, Keith Singleton captured second place with 48.9. Unable to make the finals were Kevin Harris (51.0), Dale Clayton (51.01), Brian Pitre (51.73), Kevin Davenport (51.97), and Shawn Molloy (52.6). CSU didn't place in the 800 meters. Alan Barnes ran a 1:56.5, Erwin a 1:58.0, Charlie Cedeno went 1:58.4, Scott Perrin ran 1:58.7, and Rodney Buss finished in 2 minutes flat. Charlie Cedeno ran the 1500 meter in 3:56.04 for third place.
