From Staff Reports All student senate seats have been filled by acclamation, and student senate candidates will not be elected Wednesday, according to Richard Passey, Student Association vice president. "We are getting a broader representation of students, usually 100 students file from the College of Liberal Arts and only two from the College of Math/Science. We had just enough not to have a runoff," Passey said. Of the 18 students who filed petitions for student senate seats, five were from the College of Liberal Arts, where five seats were open; four
from the College of Education, where five seats were open; three from the College of Math/Science, where four seats were open; and two from the College of Special Arts and Sciences, where three seats were open. "This is the first year that I know of there hasn't been a run-off for student senate seats," Passey said. "Now, the student senate seats are more evenly dispursed, and represent the student population better." The only race to be decided in the election is for Student Association president, with Jeff Shilling, SA president and
Roger Acebo, student senator, running. Glen Kilgore, director of academic affairs, was the only candidate who filed for vice president. Passey is not running since he will attend medical school at Oklahoma University. No one filed for the ombudsman seat, so the position will remain open. "The administration has said the student senate does not represent the students. With polling places located in all of the colleges, we hope to have a greater turnout in the election. Then we can show the administration the Student Association does represent the wishes of the students."
Acebo, Shilling face off
Candidates voice goals, opinions for presidency By Shannon Blockcolski
Jeff Shilling, sophomore, marketing major and Student Association president, will run for re-election against Roger Acebo, junior, political science major and student senator Wednesday during the student senate election. Shilling served one semester as student senator, one semester as vice president of the Student Association and one year as Student Association president. He said his best accomplishment as SA president was recognizing the executive branch has the job of carrying out the wishes and desires of the students. "When I took office, the Student Association had several internal conflicts between the executive and legislative branch. Our job (the executive branch) is to cooperate with the legislative branch," Shilling said. One of the most important issues Shilling faced, he said, was realizing there has always been the question of how effectively the Student Association represents the wishes of the students. "When we returned from Christmas break, I established a survey committee," Shilling said. "This survey showed the issues I thought the students thought were important were the issues students were concerned with, such as parking and how the student ac-
tivity fees are divided." Shilling said he is concerned with the way the administration handles student senate resolutions. "Today, the administration still has not given us an official stand on making the faculty evaluations available to the students," Shilling said. "A parking resolution sits over in the administration office that I signed 3 weeks ago. "I want to take this summer and next year, if elected, to get some answers and see some action taken on these resolutions." Keeping issues alive from this year is one of Shilling's main goals, he said. His stand on the issues hasn't changed much from last year, and he is proud of increasing communication with campus organizations. "There is a tendency, though, for the Student Association president to get bogged down in traditional activites," Shilling said. "I now know how to make those trivial things not take too much time so I can get some action done." Shilling said students should vote for him because he is serious when it comes to his position. "I am here to work for the students, and today, there are a lot of problems the students want to see results on," Shilling said. "There are a lot of important
issues, and I don't want to see them die." Acebo has served as Student Association director of public relations for one semester and as student senator for one semester. He said he has three major programs he wants to instigate within the student senate. "There will be no election for student senate seats this year, and I feel this shows there needs to be a change in how student senate seats are filled," Acebo said. "I want to change the Student Association constitution so that all campus organizations will have a seat in the senate, and there would only be one seat for each college." Acebo said if all organizations had a senate representative on the student senate, then the senator could take resolutions presented to the senate to the organization members. Then the campus groups, and colleges, could be accurately represented, he said. Another of Acebo's proposed programs originated in St. Francis College in Loretto, Penn., called the Senior Outgoing Orientation Program. The program was awarded for being the best student service project by a national collegiate organization. "The service would provide counseling for seniors not just in job placement, but in lifestyles,
finances, marriage and family," Acebo said. "I think it would be a very strong program." Acebo also said he wants to establish a Student of the Week program to honor students who have outstanding grades, perform special community service or who excel in athletics. He said the students should be awarded with a special dinner and a plaque. "I feel these are realistic programs I can work on, while also performing my duties for the student senate," Acebo said. Acebo said the students should elect him president of the Student Association because, "I represent change and I'm not an advocate
of the current senate. "I realize the student senate hasn't been effective in representing the students, and since I want change, I think people will vote for me. A lot of senators feel their seats are threatened, so they are campaigning against me. I know I am the underdog. "This is really my last year to be Student Association president. I don't think a president should be re-elected, they should serve for one year and pass the power on to someone else. "I do have realistic ideas, and I won't just sit in the senate office and sign legislation. I really want to help others."

Evangelists hats, shirts available By Shannon Blockcolski With the evangelist's becoming hot news, I thought I would use the power of the press to promote this special, limited, one-time offer from my new company, the Evangelist Propaganda Warehouse. For a low, low price, one could be the proud owner of a "I Partied With Tammy Lynn" baby blue half-shirt. And, by acting now, one also receives a complimentary year supply of mascara guaranteed to run for days. Commentary Another super bargain is the "Oral Roberts Pizza Delivery and Medical Hospital" t-shirt, complete with a silver silk-screen of Roberts climbing up the prayer tower on the back. A new item in the warehouse is the handbook "Jim Bakker's Tips to Picking Up Women Using $265,000." For a limited time only, the Evangelist Propaganda Warehouse is happy to offer the 45 rpm of Jimmy Swaggart performing his rendition of "I Heard It Through The Grapevine," with "Sue Me" on the flip side. And last, but certainly not least, my company is proud to announce a new shipment of "Jerry Falwell Want's YOU to join PTL, Or Else," bumper stickers, hats and buttons. Remember, send your money to my company instead of Roberts, it's for a better cause.

God threatens senior's grade point To the editor: After I was graduated from high school in 1979, I didn't know if I should attend college, or keep my job shoveling popcorn at the drive-in. One night after burning the last kettle of golden calories, I silently prayed for God to give me some kind of a sign to change my life that seemed to be slowly popping away. Suddenly, in walked the president of a small southwestern Oklahoma university to buy a Diet Coke. He was so impressed with my skills as a candy salesman he suggested that I leave all of my training behind, and attend his university. After struggling for a year and a half, I returned to show business, and within a few months time, I was promoted into management. Although the
glamour and glitz of movie management was appealing, I felt as though something was missing. Again I screamed to the heavens for guidance. I was shown the way a second time when I receive a drama scholarship to a small junior college near Tulsa, the evangelical center of the world. Though times were tough, I was guided through this ordeal by being placed on honor rolls, and following graduation, was offered another scholarship, this time to CSU. Now, less than forty days away from graduation, God has shown me why all of the benefits of higher education have been granted to me — but there is a catch. God has told me if I don't achieve a four point average this, my last, semester, he will "bring me home."
While my fellow students will no doubt be studying the hours away, and finishing the last paragraphs of their term papers, I will do what I must in order to stay alive. I will chain myself to the satellite dish on front of the communications building, where I will be dieting only on the Boston Baked Beans sold in the aforementioned building, and praying to be kept alive. I beg my instructors to let me live so that I might be able to finally achieve my life's calling; running a dog racing track for the visually impaired. I plead with my instructors who may be reading this to please let me live. I realize that I'm 26-years-old, but that's to young to die, and I desperately want to achieve my life's work. Bill Hauser
Student says debaters need more coverage To the editor: Debate is a very important activity at CSU that does not always receive the attention or coverage it deserves in The Vista. Unlike sports activities at CSU like basketball, football or wrestling, debate competes with the big name and Ivy League universities, such as Georgetwon, UCLA, Dartmouth and other large schools on an equal basis. The teams are not separated by school size or ranking. Central State does have a exceptional debate program. It is ranked in the top ten in the nation. Since the debaters compete against these big schools, this is an especially significant ranking. The debaters put a lot into the program. Hours are spent in the library
researching, debating practice rounds, and many weekends are spent traveling to tournaments. When the debaters do well in competition, recognition should be given. Debate is a very beneficial activity. It is educational and helps in oral skills as well as research and organization skills. Lee Iacocca, chairman of Chrysler Corporation, claimed all education in the world is not useful if a person does not know how to communicate the ideas. He credited his debate experience as the most important teacher in communication. Since CSU is an institution of education, such an activity should be recognized. The sports at CSU usually get one or two pages of coverage in The Vista. Even if the Bronchos lose a game, they still receive a good amount of
coverage. The debaters do get coverage in The Vista, but not all of their stories are published. The editor claims it is because students are not interested in debate. In addition to students, The Vista goes to faculty and the administration. All should be able to read about how the debaters are doing. Debate is an activity that takes a lot of time and work. The debaters have done well this year and deserve to get more coverage. Jessica Grassman
Editor's note: Jessica Grassman never
asked me why debate stories are not given as much coverage in The Vista as sports stories. Her quote from me is false.
Vice president muzzles student opinion? To the editor: Dudley Ryan recently disallowed polling of student opinion to discover how students feel on various issues. Some student senators felt that Ryan was attempting to keep students from voting on the athletics portion of the student activity budget. The football program and football scholarships eat up one third of a
million dollars of student money as contained in the student activity budget, while generating only $14,000. I was bemused by Ryan's reasoning on the subject. Ryan stated that he objected to the survey because he did not want faculty to feel required to participate in the polling. The faculty involved, in fact, consented to the polling. Ryan was aware
of this. The Faculty Senate approves of this polling. Ryan was aware of this. It seems as though a member of the administration is involved in a cover up scam. Beware students! Repression lurks where authority goes unchecked. Senator Edward Young College of Math and Science Student Association

News: World, state and local Part-time job program hires extra help despite halt order Part time employees sent to state agencies by employment services to help during peak workloads are not covered under the state hiring freeze. The issue was brought to light after Gov. Henry Bellmon criticized agencies for hiring more workers since October. The State Tax Commission said it is exempt from the hiring freeze because the employees it hires during the tax return season are employees of an employment service, rather than the state. Johnny Waters, administrator of the tax commission's management information service, said the agency uses people from employment services because it costs the state less money in actual wages paid, as well as in other areas, such as insurance coverage. The current system used by the tax commission also allows it to skirt around legislature set budgets.
Intelligence reports alleges Iran-Nicaragua arms link U.S. officials have alluded toward a possible arms link between Iran and Nicaragua that United States intelligence sources were aware of as early as the spring of 1985. Three sources who allegedly verified the link between the two countries suggested the administration keep the link quiet, in order to provide favorable atmosphere to the overtures the U.S. was currently making to Iran in the arms for hostages negotiations. The alleged shipment of arms occurred via a Nicaraguan merchant ship, the Monimbo. The ship was seen docked in a North Korean port during its transit to Nicaragua from Iran. The Tower Commission report made a mention of the arms shipment, but did not disclose the country of origion.
Russia visited by British head Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher arrived in Moscow over the weekend to begin five days of talks with Russian leader Mikhail Gorbachev that's expected to be dominated by arms control and human rights. Thatcher's journey to the country is the first official visit there by a British head of state in 12 years.
Accused man expected to plea insanity in alleged torturing A man accused of chaining, raping and killing women in his Philadelphia basement is expected to plea insanity during his trial. Three women were found half nude and shackled in his basement by police at Gary M. Heidnik's residence. Heidnik, 43, was treated for psychiatric problems and released by the Army in the early 1960s. Police Captain Robert Grasso said Sunday, police found human limbs in the freezer of Heidnik's home, as well as pieces of bone that will be tested to determine if they are human. Heidnik also is charged with murdering Deborah Dudley, 23, whose body was found in a New Jersey forest. Heidnik, a financial wizard who amassed half a million dollars in a stock portfolio, lived in one of the poorest sections of town.
Red cross taken to court over alleged failure to screen blood The Red Cross is being sued for more than $15,000 in damages by a suit claiming Alfred C. Squeglia died from receiving blood or blood derivatives contaminated with the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, AIDS, during surgery in March, 1985. The suit claims the Red Cross was careless and negligent by not screening donated blood for the virus. The agency began to screen blood for the disease in April, 1985.
Non-smokers' rights wrongly represented To the editor: Since you did not publish my first response two weeks ago, I am submitting a second. I hope you will be fair and print it. In my editorial calling for clean air in campus buildings, readers need to be aware it was entitled "CSU needs stricter smoking policy." The staff of The Vista changed it to "Ban campus smoking." I never asked for smoking to be banned from residential halls, but only from indoor areas open to the public. I was glad Thomas Myers brought up the issue of constitutionally guaranteed rights. The first amendment guarantees the right to petition the government for a redress of grievances. That means if I wish to tell government authorities I disagree with current policy and would like to see my right to breath clean air protected, that is absolutely my privilege. Now it seems as if some people on campus have things a little backward. These silly people have the idea my way of doing things is somehow reminiscent of Nazi policy. Hitler and Goebbels were fond of turning things backward as well. They called President Roosevelt a Bolshevist Jew, for example. They knew it wasn't true, but it suited their purposes and alarmed and controlled the German people. The truth of the matter, of course, is even the United States government has instituted smoking regulations, banning smoking in all but designated areas for federal workers in 6,800 buildings, owned or leased by the General Services Administration. Now I ask you, does that make our government a Nazi government? Of course not, in many of these cases people have exercised the constitutionally guaranteed rights to petition the government for their right to breath clean air, as have many before them. Like women campaigning for the right to vote, Blacks toiling for their civil rights and the handicapped winning the right to ingress and egress public buildings. Our government allows for a lot of change and limits to the Bill of Rights. Much of the time it has been determined by the Supreme Court. The Constitution guarantees religious freedom; yet, the Supreme Court ruled Mormons may not practice bigamy. It guarantees free speech; yet, you can not yell fire in a crowded theater and the rights of the press are limited by libel laws and rulings. The point I'm trying to make is this. For decades, tobacco and its use has been accepted in this country — not so
any more. Medical evidence began to emerge showing smoking contributed to lung cancer and heart disease. At that time, 50 percent of the population smoked. Today, only 29 percent of Americans smoke, and of these, 87 percent want to quit. Non-smokers are now the majority, and they're successfully creating restrictive smoking laws — democratically. Universities right here in central Oklahoma have very strict smoking policies. Oklahoma Christian College forbids tobacco use anywhere on campus. Oklahoma State University prohibits it in academic buildings and so does the Oklahoma University Health Science Center. OU is currently revising its policy to create a joint policy with the Health Science Center. It would be foolish to think they've all been hoodwinked by Nazis. Smoking is already prohibited in many CSU campus buildings, such as the Music, Health Sciences, Math/Computer Science, Industrial Arts, Business and Home Economics Buildings. Are they guilty of Nazi practices, Mark Pfeifer? Don't be duped by the tobacco industry. It doesn't care about you. All it wants is your money. It is victimizing you. It doesn't care if its product is killing you. RJ Reynolds and Phillip Morris are already diversifying. They see the handwriting on the wall. A study released March 4 of 227 scientists, including six Nobel Laureates, predicted the demise of smoking by the turn of the century. Smoke in enclosed areas makes many people sick. It endangers their health. I have been made ill by smoke all my life. It's not a matter of personal preference to me, Mark. It makes my eyes burn, my lungs tighten and creates waves of nausea and dizziness from lack of oxygen, as it does for countless others. Your smoker's body has accommodated this feeling through years of use, that's why it doesn't bother you. Let's be reasonable and realistic. Human beings need clean air to breath in order to sustain their health and comfort. I understand smokers are addicted to cigarettes and some need to smoke. But it just isn't fair to inflict misery on the rest of us. Why not get some nicotine gum to use while in academic buildings? That way, we'll all be happy. You'll have the right to ingest your nicotine without making us ill. And we'll have the right to breath clean, healthful air and study in a safe, comfortable environment. Martha Giglio

Spring break '87
Students enjoy break in warm, sunny area
Photographic Services: Tom Gilbert
By J. Money During spring break, both students and faculty try to escape the campus and the life that goes with it. Some students go fishing, others go snow skiing. One of the more favorite places for people to go during the break, if they can afford it, is the Padre Island region of Texas. Located on the Gulf of Mexico, the coast offers long sandy beaches, plenty of sun and the chance for thousands of visitors to meet one another at the restaurants and bars which line the beach. During this break period, thousands crammed the beaches during the day to take in some sun, play volleyball and swim, drinking large quantities of beverages in the process. Many just cruised the beachfront roads, looking at the multitude of tanned, swimsuit clad bodies. During the evening hours, the action switched over from the beach to the clubs, where vacationers from different sections of the country had a chance to mingle and get to know one another. Many students who went to Padre Island during the break cited similar reasons for going. One of the biggest reasons was to "thaw out for longer than two days at a time." Also, students said the country was different, making their vacations almost seem exotic. Several said they went to make new friends and some to see old friends made in previous years.

Softballers split tournament games By John Helsley
Sports Editor A tiebreaker procedure kept the CSU softball team from advancing into the second round Saturday at the Missouri Southern Invitational. The Lady Bronchos posted a 2-2 record in their pool of round robin play to finish in a tie for second. But, under a tiebreaker of least runs scored against, the CSU girls were left in fourth place while only three teams advanced from each pool. "I don't usually complain about how tournaments are run, but they didn't tell us what the tiebreaker was until after pool play had been completed," said CSU coach Gerry Pinkston. "If we would have known (the tiebreaker), we could have done some things to keep our opponent's scores down."
Host No. 1 Lady Chiefs Thursday
VISTA Sports "I've never seen a tournament where they tell you the tiebreaker after the games are played," she continued. "I was furious all the way back home, but you have to take those things in stride." CSU started the tournament with a pair of victories. Pitcher Jane Kajs picked up her third win of the season as the Lady Bronchos pounded the University of South Dakota 8-3 on the strength
of a six-run second inning. South Dakota scored their runs in the sixth, but never really posted a threat. Avenging an earlier loss, the Lady Bronchos nipped Central Iowa, 1-0, behind Gladys Griffin's two-hitter in the second game. CSU posted its only run in the fourth when Irene Warwick plated Dee Gerlach with a one-out single after Gerlach had tripled.
Pittsburg State held off a seventh-inning rally to edge the Lady Bronchos 3-2 in their third contest. CSU led 1-0 until the fifth, when Pittsburg tied the game with a single run. Pittsburg added a pair of runs in the sixth off Griffin, who went the distance for only her second loss in 10 decisions. The Lady Bronchos got a run in the bottom of the seventh, but the rally ended there.
CSU, now 11-5, dropped its final tournament game when Simpson blanked the Lady Bronchos 2-0. Simpson scored both runs on a throwing error by Tami Loy, who was filling in at third base for Griffin. Griffin was injured when she was hit on the hand by a batted ball. After traveling to Cameron for a doubleheader Tuesday, the Lady Bronchos, ranked third in the NAIA, will host top-ranked Oklahoma City University Thursday for a pair of games beginning at 2:30 p.m. "I've tried to approach the OCU game as just another game," Pinkston said. "I was hoping to avoid the No. 1 vs No. 3 stuff. They (OCU) have been playing a lot of NCAA teams and they are going to be tough to beat."
Lady netters blank TWU, up season record to 7-0 By John Helsley
Tim Ritchie goes low . for a volley against Tulsa's Terkis Reynder. Ritchie lost in three sets, 6-2, 5-7, 1-6.
Sports Editor Sweeping four singles and one doubles match, the CSU lady netters shutout Texas Women's University in a Saturday dual in Edmond. The Lady Bronchos, ranked 15th in the latest NAIA poll, were in control throughout as they breezed to two-set victories in each match. Sophomore Kerryn Whittaker, 24th in the national individual rankings, crushed Irma Cantu 6-0, 6-0 to start the landslide for CSU. 11th-ranked Jenny Bautista followed with a 6-3, 6-1 handling of Lisa Thomas, Shannon Johnson downed Nancy Weber 6-4, 6-1 and Kerry Parker closed out the singles play with a 6-2, 6-1 drubbing of Vivian Rodriguez. Kathi Swink and Raquelle Willette then defeated Christina Keegan and Elizabeth Quesada to complete the whitewashing. "Everyone dominated their opponent today," said CSU coach Francis Baxter. "Jenny, Kerryn and the team remained undefeated in singles, doubles and duals and advanced to 7-0." The men's team split a pair of weekend matches, defeating Oklahoma Baptist University 8-1 on Friday, before losing to Tulsa University, 4-1, Saturday. CSU won several close matches in a dual which was actually closer than the final score. Kevin Hill, Phil Desjardins and Stan Swyden each won two-set
singles matches, while Mac Convento and Rob Autry went three sets for victories. The Bronchos only loss came in No. 4 singles, where Tim Ritchie fell to Phil Perez in a three-set thriller 6-4, 3-6, 5-7. Hill and Ritchie combined in No. 1 doubles for a 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 win over Mike Hinkle and Jim Shaughnessy while Autry and Convento edged Eric Lair and Ted Moore 6-2, 4-6, 6-2 in the No. 3 doubles match for another pair of tight decisions. Desjardins and Swyden made it a 3-0 doubles day with a 7-5, 6-4 No. 2 doubles win over Perez and Tom Ryder. "We were strong, mentally and physically," Baxter reflected. "Winning four-of-five three-setters made a close match seem to be a laugher. Kevin, Phil and Stan were outstanding in singles and doubles." On Saturday, Desjardins and Swyden teamed for a 7-6, 5-7, 6-3 doubles win to salvage a win in the loss to the Hurricane. Due to the cold and windy weather, the teams played an abbreviated match. Hill, Ritchie, Autry and Schmidt all lost singles duals. "We match up well with TU, but we didn't win the close ones today," said Baxter. "Phil and Stan continued their fine doubles play." Both the men and women will play host to Tulsa Wednesday in a match that starts at 1 p.m. and the women will also play Friday and Saturday in the Cameron Intercollegiate Tournament in Lawton.
Bronchos tame Tigers, 7-2, 6-4 during afternoon double sweep By Mary Butler
CSU's Kevin Hill cringes at a call from his Saturday singles match. Hill had reason to cringe, as he dropped a 6-1, 6-3 decision to Tulsa's Richard Alexander.
Tunneling through a mound of eight-out-of-10 losses, the CSU baseball team picked up a pair of over-due wins Thursday, besting the visiting Doane College Tigers 7-2 and 6-4 in an afternoon twinbill. Freshman Kyle Randolph lifted a sacrifice fly in the first, doubled in a pair in the third and walked with the bases loaded in the fourth to pace the Bronchos in the opener with a four-RBI showing. Keven Littlefield and Chuck Stout provided the rest of the punch. Littlefield, a freshman catcher out of Del City, stroked a sacrifice fly in the third. Stout, CSU's leader in the double department, ripped his fourth two-baser of the year in the fourth plating two runs.
The Tigers tired offense managed six hits in the game and scored a pair of runs in the fourth on Mike Clay's two-run single. The Broncho crew scratched out seven runs on only five hits. Clay Howell, a righthanded freshman, went the distance and stuck out seven to collect his second win of the season. In the nightcap, CSU strung together some aggressive baserunning, a pair of power-packed innings and six Tiger miscues to pull off a 6-4 come-from-behind win. The Bronchos started the scoring in the first, pulling off a first and third double steal. Randolph and Tim Robinson opened the inning with a pair of singles. Robinson raced home and scored while Randolph, despite a successful seven-out-of-eight stolen base
mark this season, was caught at second. The Tigers put a run on the board in the second, putting together a Frank Theiler triple and a scarifice fly and again in the third on a Todd Hoffman threerun homer. Todd Wallingford and Stout brought the Bronchos back, popping back-to-back doubles in the third to score a pair of runs. CSU added a single, an error, a sacrifice, a walk, another error and a double in the fourth and ended up with a 6-4 lead and the win. Bobby Tootle, a Tuttle freshman, tossed two and a third hitless innings and fanned three to pick up his first win. Stopper Glen Shahan silenced the Tigers in the seventh to gain his second save.

Seward should spark exciting hoop action By John Helsley
Sports Editor
New Broncho basketball coach Jim Seward
IM cagers enter playoff The CSU intramural basketball competition is winding down to its own version of the final four. Beginning tonight at 7 in Broncho Fieldhouse, eight teams will participate in first round playoff games of a single elimination tournament to determine the overall school champion. Sigma Tau, with a 5-0 record, and Alpha Phi, 4-1, have already qualified to represent the Fraternity League. In the Gold League, it appears the Heartbreakers will advance as a top seed along with the Wild Ones and Z's Gang. ROTC, The Over The Hill Gang and the Wolverines should advance from the Blue League.
When the 1987-88 basketball season rolls along, there will be a lot of interested eyes on the Broncho cage squad. CSU will rely heavily on young players as they venture into a new conference sporting a new coach. While there will be many question marks, it would appear that CSU's 15th head basketball coach, Jim Seward, will provide an exciting brand of ball. While at Division II Ashland College in Ohio, his teams twice led the nation in scoring. Most recently, Seward's Kansas Newman ballclubs earned four consecutive District 10 playoff berths, including a semi-final appearance this past season. "We'll press a lot and run the floor a lot," Seward said. "We'll use the full court on offense and defense. I believe that people will think we are exciting to watch play. "A couple of my teams led the nation in scoring, and that's due to an aggressive style. We will play a lot of people and be team oriented and we will play hard," he continued. Seward, a native of Evanston, Ill., signed a one-year contract for $30,500 and his duties will officially begin June 1. But he hopes to sign three or four recruits in the upcoming signing period.
"We are working very hard at it (recruiting)," Seward said. "It's hard to evaluate the talent because the season is over, but there are some good prospects still available." •■••■

"We'll use the full court on offense and defense. I believe that people will think that we are exciting to watch play." Seward has only seen his new squad in a recent pickup game, but he said he thought there were some good athletes with potential, and also some young people who can play. He will inherit 13 players from a 9-20 club which includes one senior, seven juniors and five sophomores. The leading return-
ing scorer will be sophomore Scott Streller, who averaged 9.6 points this past season. Despite taking over a relatively inexperienced team, Seward predicted the Bronchos would be competitive in the Lone Star Conference next season. "My teams have played against Abilene Christian, and I've seen some other Lone Star teams play. It is a good conference," said the 40-year old coach. "The quality is probably not any better than the top teams in District 9, like OCU and OCC. The difference in the NCAA, however; is not the quality, but the quantity of quality teams." Due to financial problems, Kansas Newman suspended its basketball program earlier this month. Seward cited several factors which made the CSU job appealing. "I like the location of the school," he said. "I liked the size of the community and the closeness to Oklahoma City. Location is very important in recruiting. The school also has an excellent academic and athletic reputation nationwide and the facilities are very good. The move to the NCAA and the Lone Star Conference was a strong plus also."

Sand party to feature live music
An American farmhouse in the west is the setting for the play "Curse of the Starving Class," will show 8 p.m. April 9, 10, 11 and 2:30 p.m. April 12 in Mitchell Hall Theater. "This play is considered a major work by one of theater's most respected and celebrated writers, pulitizer prize winner, Sam Shepard," Dr. Don Bristow, director, said. The cast is: Mike Barton, CSU graduate; Angela Ford-Zeyn, Oklahoma City; Kelly Burrus, Oklahoma City; Kevin Newcomb, Edmond; John Mock, Oklahoma City; Sean Winders, Mustang; Bradley Wright, Enid; Alan Sloan, Edmond; and Kenneth Sabey, Altus. This play has won the Obie Award and much critical acclaim, Bristow said. The farmhouse is the home of a drunken father, a sluttish mother, a precocious daughter and a deranged, idealistic son. "In the end, the play, and its people, become a metaphor for the underside of American life and the unrealistic dream of fulfillment, which is beyond their reach," said Bristow. "The play contains adult language and situations."
Despite the temperature drop, there will be a beach party 7-11 p.m. Wednesday at Thatcher Lake. If it gets too cold or the weather gets bad, the party will be moved indoors to the University Center Ballroom. The Student Association is sponsoring the event, which will feature the Jimmy Swat Band. All the Rage, a band from Norman, will warm up for Swat. Swat, who released an album in January, performed at the beach party last year.
Production depicts poverty, farm life
John Mock, as Weston, and Kelly Burrus, as Emma, open April 9 in the production of Sam Shepard's play, "Curse of the Starving Class."
