Sales tax increase bolsters schedule
Cherie Smith and Karla Groenewold take a break from classes to enjoy the warm weather and sunshine that has blessed the Edmond area since Tuesday. Temperatures are expected to remain in the 70s for the next two to three days.
By Kathleen Olson With the recent one cent sales tax hike, Central State has been able to add additional courses to its summer schedule, according to Dr. Albert Lynd, assistant vice president of Academic affairs. Initially, CSU reduced the summer schedule to 50 percent of the previous summer, due to budget reductions. "With the passage of the one cent sales tax, Dr. Lillard announced that it would be possible to add additional faculty to our anticipated 50 percent summer schedule," Lynd stated. "It is important to realize that we did not go from 50 percent back to a 100 percent. This summer's schedule is not the same size as the last summer." Lynd estimated the schedule to be about 70 percent of last year's schedule. According to Lynd, a summer schedule similiar to the previous summer was constructed prior to notification of a budget reduction. When notified, all departments revised schedules to reflect a 50 percent reduction. Printing of the revision was halted when the office of Academic Affairs realized additional courses could be offered. This schedule was sent back to the respective departments for additions. The third version of the summer schedule was then sent to the print shop and began distribution Monday. "We had an obligation to the students to begin enrollment this past Monday because we're getting very near the end of our semester and we wanted to start enrollment prior to spring break," Lynd explained. "Had we had a more leisurely pace in getting this ready we might have caught every tiny mistake, but, as it was, we felt that it was important to have the schedule and let students begin enrollment before spring break." Lynd explained that classes would be added as the departments delete classes with no student interest. However, he predicts no major additions.
Crossed wires cause faulty alarms
Firebug strikes East Hall again
By Matthew Driskill Editor For the third time since Sunday East Hall men's dormitory was hit by arson in a bathroom trash can setting off alarms and causing one resident advisor and a student to be treated for minor injuries. The fire was discovered in a second floor bathroom by Victor Berkey, one of the residents, who then reported it to an advisor (RA). The RA on duty, William Leemaster responded to the fire and received 4-5 stiches in his hand after he broke out a glass cover on a fire extinguisher. After the fire was extinguished, dorm residents were evacuated from the building while officials
conducted a room to room search looking for a suspect who was described as being a white male, approximately six feet in heighth and having blonde hair. The suspect was seen by three seperate witnesses running doen a hallway after the fire was reported. Berkey was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation and then taken to the Edmond Emergency Room where he was treated and released. Leemaster was also taken to the emergency room to repair the damage to his hand This latest fire is the first time that units of the Edmond Fire Department have responded to a fire at East Hall in this most recent bout of arson. Reasons given by university of-

ficials included a faulty alarm system. In the preceeding two incidents, the fires were either not detected by the smoke alarms or were extinguished before they became a serious threat. Housing Director Robert Fields
said the reason some of the alarms were not activited is because of construction currently underway in the building. "Whenever you lower a ceiling like we are in there (East Hall), then you are going to have some
problems with your wiring," Fields said. "The maintainence people are over there right now trying to get all that straightened out," Fields explained. See Firebug on page 8
Spring Break: time for 'fun' By Melissa Mercer With expectations of adventure and a great time, thousands of book-worn students will converge on the highways next week in participation with the national phenomenon of spring break. Many will go west to the mountains and skiing, or east to fishing and camping. Still greater numbers will join the pilgrimage south to the mecca of spring break venturers, Padre Island. Better yet, imagine Fort Lauderdale's March population surge. It is a holiday which has cultivated numerous ways to have a good time. Most notable is the all but abandoned practice of brave souls dashing in the buff through the crowds of beer drinking onlookers in the spring break tradition of streaking. Break is a time when students plan and save money through the semester for one week of doing what they do admirably—having fun. However, for those with no plans or funds to execute them, spring festivities can be found locally and at budget rates. Starting the week is the celebration of St. Patrick's Day. Special events include a Green Parade
downtown Oklahoma City at 10:30 a.m. and, a five and ten kilometer run at the Myriad to benefit the Lung Association. State resorts are offering a 33 percent discount on lodge rooms through the end of April. Participating are Arrowhead, Fountainhead, Western Hills, Roman Nose, Lake Murray, Lake Texorna and Quartz Mountain. "Facilities vary with each park," according to Mike Mayberry of the State Tourism Bureau, "but most offer riding stables, canoeing, tennis—a variety of things." Within the metro area, the Oklahoma art centers are showing an assortment of exhibits including the opening of the 18th century drawings of the Lehman collection and the continuing exhibit of "Jazz in Oklahoma", special for black heritage. A benefit auction presented by the Oklahoma Horse Council will be held Sunday for those interested in unique items and an art show and sale to benefit the Children's Medical Research will be held Monday at the Lake Shore Bank.

Name witheld defended as legitimate Letter to the Editor:
The editorial page sure has been interesting lately. Some of the letters written in rebuttal to the equality letter of Feb. 14, did more to prove the author of that letter right than wrong. A lot has been said critizing the author of that letter because he wanted his name withheld. I certainly understand why someone would want their letter printed with their name withheld by request. The uproar by the local black community, the vandalism of the papers, and the threats of physical violence made to The Vista editor are reasons enough for anyone to fear printing their name under their opinion. It's too bad that in this country a person has to fear violent reaction just from voicing his opinion, but it's been proven to happen all too many times. I've spoken to many people who agreed with that letter but said they wouldn't have signed it either for fear of just exactly what happened. In fact, most of those same people are even afraid someone will find out that they agree with the letter at all for fear of violent retribution. Everyone has a right to their opinion, and they have the right in this country to voice that opinion. No one should have to fear the savage reaction that occured. To me, it's not childish to want your name withheld, it's just playing it safe. The childish part was the violence and threats that were made when that opinion was voiced. Name witheld by request '
Controversy rages on today
Abortion remains hot issue By Lina Hammoud In 1973 the Supreme Court upheld a
woman's legal right to an abortion. But the controversy between pro and anti abortion groups has never been settled. Pro arbortionists believe that the government is saving billions of dollars

in federal, state, and local taxes that otherwise would have been spent on health and education and various social programs for unwanted babies. Editorial
Pro abortionists also believe that it is necessary for effective population growth due to the effects of abortion on birth rate decline. Pro abortionists report that 40 to 50 million abortions take place each year; world-wide half of them are performed illegally. Unwanted pregnancies represents the most significant problem for adolescents in particular and unwed mothers in general and that poses social, economical, educational and psychological problems. An abortion should be performed 7-13 weeks of pregnancy. By the seventh week a complete baby is formed with fingers, toes, eyes, lungs, a beating heart and brain waves. Anti abortionists claim also that an unborn baby is a human life with a soul from the moment of conception. In Akron, Ohio, an ordinance was passed opposing abortion and forbidding doctors to perform an abortion for a teenager under the age of 15 without the consent of the parent or a
judge. Which brought up the issue of the rights of the children versus the rights of the parents. Pro abortionists believe that an abortion is with no doubt a private matter that involves sex, religon and at last morality. According to an article in USA Today, 11,280 abortions were performed in Oklahoma in 1980. States and local governments nationwide are trying constantly to place obstacles between a woman and an abortion. The issue of abortion also plays an important role in politics. It effects one out of four votes in an election. Minnesota has the nation's strongest "right to life movement", which is an anti abortion committee. In 1982 the Minnesota House of Representatives denied public funds for abortion, because of the lobbying of the anti abortion groups. Pro abortionist view an abortion as an act of mercy preventing the misery of an unwanted, unloved or unhealthy baby and somehow try to justify it. Anti abortionists view it as killing a human being with rights. Pro abortionists also insist that the decision should be left up to the pregnant woman and her doctor, so they are trying to protect the woman's rights and freedom of choice by ignoring the rights of the unborn baby.

State,local world news Hart wins 3, Mondale 2 Sen. Gary Hart and former Vice President Walter Mondale divided Super Tuesday victories and convention delegates—setting up what Mondale predicted will be a marathon battle through the long primary season. The primary or caucus voting in nine states produced positive results for all five candidates still in the race. Hart—a winner in Florida and with a strong showing in Georgia—showed he can win primaries outside New England. He won in Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, and was projected to win here. Mondale—winner in Alabama and among Democrats living overseas, and the projected winner in Georgia—got badly needed victories after four straight losses. Sen. John Glenn—running second in Alabama—avoided a clear knockout blow in the Southern states where he campaigned hard. Former Sen. George McGovern, though apparently short of the first or second in Massachusetts he hoped for, may consider the showing good enough to stay in race.
Gas, liquor tax Ok'd A bill removing sales tax exemptions from 3.2 beer and cigarettes and increasing the liquor excise tax was passed by the Senate Finance Committee today. Gov. George Nigh took the unusual step of appearing before the committee to urge passage of the bill. The legislation is the last of three parts of Nigh's revenue package for this year. The state will realize $25.7 million a year from the changes and cities could collect $17.2 million from their sales taxes plus a part of the liquor increase. Drawing the most opposition before the committee was the liquor change, which increases the excise rate by 25 percent. The tax on spirits would go from $4 to $5 per gallon. The removal of the beer sales tax exemption would produce $3.7 million for the state general fund and $7.4 million for the Department of Human Services. The cigarette sales tax would give the general fund $3.9 million and DHS $7.8 million. The liquor tax change would produce $4.5 million with the state receiving $2.9 million and cities sharing $1.4 million.

Tunesmiths to perform tonight The Tunesmiths, who will perform tonight in the Music building, began twelve years ago when the CSU Barbershop Quartet combined with the Old North Belles sextet to sing for a banquet in the Persian Room of the Oklahoma City Skirvin Tower Hotel. "They thought it was so exciting performing together that they decided to add two more men for couple choreography," said Joanie Gregory, 1984 member of the Tunesmiths. "After much deliberation they chose a name after the orginal Territorial Normal School: The Territory Tunesmiths. Soon the name was shortened to the Tunesmiths." In the twelve years of the
Tunesmiths' history, they have provided entertainment for schools, churches and professional meetings on campus and throughout the state as well as touring to Dallas, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, New Orleans and Las Vegas. The Tunesmiths are a show choir selected by audition in the fall and they receive work scholarships, according to Robert Taylor, another 1984 member of the Tunesmiths. "We rehearse an average of six hours a week, learning choreography and preparing a sampler of American popular music ranging from Broadway show tunes to vocal rock to jazz," Taylor said. The group is also preparing
original songs by Tom Bell and arrangements by Coleman Smith and Taylor. The Tunesmith members are preparing to become teachers, church musicians, composers and arrangers, radio announcers, and performers at the professional level, Taylor said. During the summer, they gain further experience by performing at Oklahoma City's Lyric Theater, Six Flags Over Texas, Opryland, Silver Dollar City and the Little Bavarian Restaurant in Missouri. For the past eleven years, Taylor said, the Tunesmiths were directed by Dr. Coleman Smith. This year, however, Dr. Smith turned the direction over to former member Tom Bell. Bell is a junior majoring in vocal music performance. He was a member of the Tunesmiths for two years and has performed professionally at Frontier City Music Hall and Six Flags Over Texas. He also choreographed musicals for CSU and for Midwest City High School. The group will be performing their spring concert at 7 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. tonite, in the Music building, room 135. The first show is general admission. Reservations are needed for the 8:30 performance. Both concerts are free.
Savin' 0' The Green Autry executed in Texas Condemned killer James David Autry, his request for a fourth stay turned down by the U.S. Supreme Court, wept with a priest, phoned relatives and ordered his last meal as he waited for execution Tuesday near Texas' powder-blue death chamber. Autry, a 29-year-old drifter nicknamed "Cowboy" by fellow inmates, came within 30 minutes of death by injection last October. He was lying on a gurney with needles in his arms when Justice Byron White issued a stay. But on Tuesday, the justices in Washington refused by a 7-2 vote to hear arguments aimed at overturning the death sentence of Autry, who was convicted of killing a convenience store clerk who tried to make him pay for a six-pack of beer. Also on Tuesday, Autry lost a federal court attempt to have live television coverage of his execution. Autry was executed by lethal injection and pronounced dead at 12:40 a.m. yesterday.

John Z. De Lorean said Tuesday as his cocaine trafficking trial opened that he expects to be acquitted because, he says, he is an absolutely innocent man. Accompanied by his wife, model Cristina Ferrare, and attorney Howard Weitzman, De Lorean said he feels he is the victim of a frameup and spoke bitterly about the government's role in the case. He was arrested in an FBI "sting" operation in which agents posed as drug dealers and recorded meetings on videotape. The nine-count indictment alleges that De Lorean and several other people conspired to distribute $24 million worth of cocaine in an effort to pump funds into his sports car company in Belfast, Northern Ireland, which was failing and has since gone into bankruptcy. If convicted on all counts, De Lorean could face a maximum of 72 years in prison.

Trip doubles as mini-course If you "habla" (speak) any Spanish, ever wanted to speak any Spanish or are interested in Mexican culture, the foreign language department may have a trip for you. "Topics in Spanish", on location in Mexico, is the name of the trip which doubles as a minicourse in the Spanish language and Mexican history and culture. Students who go on the trip will earn two hours credit, graduate or undergraduate, in an upperdivision course. According to Ann Phillips, foreign language professor an trip sponsor, the trip will begin in El Paso, Texas, May 23. After crossing the border, the group will travel by motorcoach to Chihuahua, Mexico, where Padre Hildago spent his last days before he was beheaded. En route, they will visit Casa Grandes, a 237-acre archeological site which includes adobe houses, pyramids and pits. In Chihuahua they plan to visit Pancho Villa's home. The group will be in Chihuahua during the week of the Fiesta of Santa Rita, Phillips said.
The next day they will board the Chihuahua-Pacific Railway, which travels through Copper Canyon. The students will depart the train at noon that day to visit the Creel, a frontier logging town, where they can observe cavedwelling Tarahumara Indians. These people are stone-age Indians whose idea of fun is a 150-mile run. This is one of their games as well as one of their customs, Phillips said. The next day they will leave by train for Los Mochis. The trip is considered the most spectacular train ride in North America. The train will stop a half hour at El Divisadero, where the students can look down 6,500 feet into Copper Canyon, which is said to be four times larger than the Grand Canyon. "The trip through the canyon is the highlight of the trip," Phillips said. "The scenery is just magnificent." The train passes through 89 tunnels and over 48 bridges and viaducts. The total distance of the ride is 392 miles.

The group will travel by motorcoach through the coastal plains to Mazatlan. After that, on to Puerto Vallarta for three days and nights of sun and sea. En route, they will stop at Tepic, capital of the State of Nayarit, to see the state museum featuring Huichol and Cora Indian cultures. These were the Indians who used peyote in their religious ceremonies. The group will return to the United States on June 3. Cost of the trip is $690, which includes all transportation, hotels, tours and entry fees. Students will be responsible for all meals. "The objective of the trip is to increase students' knowledge and appreciation of Mexican culture while increasing their proficiency in communicating in Spanish," Phillips explained.
Prior to the trip each student will prepare a study related to subjects with which the group will come in contact, Phillips said. Then each student will become the group's "expert" on towns or cultures they plan to visit. Each student will also keep a list of cultural patterns which differ from Anglo-American ones. Along with this, students will keep a list of new Spanish words and expressions learned through their travels. In addition, students will have a daily conversational assignment, which will vary according to each student's Spanish fluency. "It will be a challenge to create a specific conversational situation with a Mexican and report the outcome," Phillips said.

something that many great athletes in many different sports have failed to do, leave as champions. We have become champions out of our love and respect for you not as a coach but as a human being. At the lowest point of our final season a meeting was held to discuss our problems. What came out of that meeting was a personal tribute from each one of us to you. We wanted to win the national title not for ourselves, our school, or our families. We wanted to win it for you. David, there are no words in our language that can express the true feeling we have for you. You have molded us into champions and we will be champions for the rest of our lives. Of all the words to say only two will do. Thank You."

When James talks, it seems to excite and enthuse anyone, whether they're a wrestling fan or not. A tribute speech that James received from his seniors show just how much the man is respected.

By Jimmy Nickell Sports Editor Webster's dictionary defines excitement as the state of being excited or something that excites or arouses. These two definitions fit David James. James just finished his second season as the head wrestling coach of the Bronchos. As many know by now, the 83-84 season was another banner season for the CSU grapplers. It culminated with the national championship here two weeks ago. But despite the success the Bronchos enjoyed, James is already looking forward to next season and the challenges that lie ahead. "We're very excited on winning the title this year, but I can't wait to get after it again," James said. "We're very happy with the things we accomplished this season and it was a big win for the program. But their is no time to

Bronchos sweep Southeastern
By Jimmy Nickell Sports Editor It has been a long time coming. For the first time since Bobby Hunt has been coaching the baseball team, his Bronchos swept NAIA power Southeastern State. The Bronchos handed Southeastern 6-3 and 5-3 setbacks Tuesday afternoon at Broncho Field. "It was very satisfying to defeat them (Southeastern) in back-toback games," Hunt said."We had beaten them twice before, but we've never been able to sweep a double-header from them since I've been here." The two wins raised CSU's record to 9-1 while Southeastern drops to 8-3. The first contest appeared to be a pitchers' dual between CSU's Ron Maxwell and the Savage's Scott Hayes. Neither team could score through the first four innings. Southeastern managed one run in the top of the fifth when Barry
Bowker lined an RBI double over shortstop Brett Turner's head. CSU retaliated with three runs in their half of the fifth. Ron Black provided the big blow with a three-run homer to help pave the way for the CSU comeback. CSU added three more runs in the sixth while the Savages manged two in the sixth. Brett Hauser came on to relieve Maxwell with one out in the sixth, and held the Savages to just one hit and no runs. Hauser was credited with the win, his third of the year. CSU used the long ball to help them win the nightcap. Guy Hardaker and Turner hit back-toback homers in the first inning and the Bronchos never looked back. The Bronchos scored three runs in the first and followed it with two more in the second. CSU would not need another run as the Broncho pitching held Southeastern batters to only three runs on nine hits.
"We are pitching much better," stated Hunt. "It's pretty obvious that when you hold a team like Southeastern to six runs in two games, that you're doing a good job pitching. We're also doing a fine job on getting the clutch hits." Hunt feels staying mentally prepared will be the key for the Bronchos to keep performing well. "We know we can play well, so we just have to be ready for each game," Hunt said. "If we play with intensity, we have a good chance to win." Todd Green, Ron Black, Robbie Carnes, Hardaker and Turner were among the hitting heroes for CSU. Green went 2-8 at the plate, scored twice and stole two bases. Black was 2-6, scored three runs and delivered three RBI's. Carnes was 2-4 and scored two runs while Turner went 2-6, scored twice and delivered two RBI's. Hardaker went 2-7, scored twice and also had two RBI's.
Firebug continued from page 1 Sergeant Doris Smith, CSU campus security, confirmed that not all the alarms and detection devices were operating properly in the dorm and concurred that the problem was the result of the construction work. Contacted Wednesday, Smith said, "All the pull boxes are
working now and most of the smoke detectors are working. I think the people are over there now trying to get all the bells working as well." Smith said that officers would be keeping a closer watch over all the dorms in light of the fires at East Hall. CSU President Dr. Bill Lillard
said putting a stop to the arsonist was one of his top priorities. "Whoever is doing this has got to realize that this is not a prank or a joke," Lillard said. "Someone could get seriously hurt. "We've got extra personnel on the job right now trying to put a stop to this," Lillard said.

Bronchos netters whip Bethany 4-2 By Jimmy Nickell Sports Editor The Lady Bronchos whipped up on rival Bethany Nazarene 4-2 in tennis action Tuesday. Terry Roque, Pam Gilbert and Joy Miller all won singles matches while the team of Gilbert-Roque won in doubles competition. The only points Bethany could manage came on two defaults by CSU. As was expected, head coach Francis Baxter was pleased with the win. "Bethany was ranked fourth in the district, so it was a good win," Baxter said. "All of the girls did a fine job. Terry resumed her winn-
ing ways over District IX competition. She has not lost a district singles match for two years. Pam and Joy also had good wins." Roque defeated Kelly Phillips 6-1, 6-3 while Gilbert handled Janelle Holmes 6-3, 6-4. Miller completed the singles scoring with a 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 win over Salleye Campbell. Gilbert and Roque completed the Lady Bronchos team scoring with a 6-3, 6-2 decision over Holmes and Ross. CSU is now 2-3 for the season and will host Rose State today in a dual match.
James continued from page 7 cond and an athlete third. It's easy to perform to the best of your ability when you have a coach like David." As a wrestler, James was just as successful as he has been at coaching. In four years, he was one of the best ever to compete for Central State. He became only the second athlete in the school's history to earn All-America honors four times. James was a two-time NAIA national champion at 134, was second at 134 as a sophomore and third at 126 at the NCAA Division II tournament as a freshman. He won 12 tournament titles while at CSU, finishing with a superb 116-16 rcord and a winning percentage of .879. "I had some wonderful coaches growing up," James said. "I was very fortunate to have these individuals teach me some things, and I've just tried to use the things I've learned to the best of my knowledge." James went on to say, "I've always felt that preparing for the national tournament mentally was
the most important thing. We try to cover every aspect that we can and try to leave a positive attitude on everybody concearned with the matches." When James means eveyone, he means everyone. "We even try to impress the referees by hustling. If it comes down to his decision to determine the outcome of a match, we want him to know that we hustled and earned every point we won," James pointed out. When James spoke of himself as being the fortunate one to be associated with some individuals, the shoe could definitely fit on the other foot. According to members of the team, the fortunate are the ones that have been associated with James. By being around James they said, "you just get the feeling that good things are going to come your way." There are not many individuals that have the special ingrediants to be a great coach. But James does and many at CSU feel feel fortunate they have a young man that has all of these tools.
