Master plan approved Treatment touted in cancer research SAN DIEGO (AP) — Scientists are developing an entirely new class of chemical weapons in their fight against cancer: medicines that stop the disease from spreading. Researchers from the National Cancer Institute said Monday they are starting to give the first of these new treatments to people with advanced forms of cancer. The goal: prevent metastasis — the disastrous spread of cancerous cells throughout the body. This spread, rather than the initial tumor, is the way cancer almost always kills.
Former Curly sings "Oklahoma!" again OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Ridge Bond, the Broadway actor who helped make "Oklahoma" the state song, is tuning up his vocal chords to help celebrate the song's 50th anniversary. Bond has sung the title song from "Oklahoma!" between 2,000 and 3,000 times. He was the longest-running Curly in the Broadway play, performing from 1946 to 1954. He'll sing it at least one more time Tuesday at a luncheon celebrating the release ofa commemorative stamp on the play's 50th anniversary, which is Wednesday. Bond, now an insurance executive, sang the Rodgers and Hammerstein song at the state Capitol in 1953 to help former Gov. George Nigh make it the state song.
Doctors overcharge, Americans say WASHINGTON (AP) — Most Americans believe medical specialists make way too much money — without knowing that they pocket even more, according to a survey released Monday by a health advocacy group. The Families USA Foundation said the survey bolsters arguments for price controls to immediately rein in medical costs. Ron Pallock, executive director of the group said that "with nearly one-sixth of our entire national health expenditures winding up as doctors' income, we can't hope to make health care affordable for our families until we get medical overcharges under control. -

Regents, state say yes to UCO bonds By Roy Howe Staff Writer Last week saw the final steps toward the realization of the University of Central Oklahoma's $45.7 million Master Plan. This plan involves the selling of revenue bonds and a newly approved library fee beginning this fall to help fund the plan. First, the State Regents' for Higher Education gave its unanimous approval at its regular meeting March 24 for UCO to proceed with the "innovative approach" of selling revenue bonds in the amount of $37 million to go toward the plan. Next, the board approved a library improvement fee amounting to $2.50 per credit-hour which will afford an 83,000
square foot library expansion to the university's Max Chamber's Library. "Revenue from the (library) fee is to be deposited in the institution's agency special account and be dedicated to repayment of the revenue bonds," the regents' agenda reads. The $37 million raised by selling bonds will be combined with $7.7 UCO received from last year's statewide higher education bond issue and $1 million in existing physical plant monies to fund the $45.7 million plan. The Master Plan involves classroom building expansions, renovations and additional equipment. It also calls for additional parking, lighting, landscaping and safety. In addition, the plan calls for an
expansion to the University Center, a new multi-purpose classroom and office building and the expansion of Howell Hall. "If everything goes well, we would like to have the additional parking in place by September," said George Nigh, UCO president. "It's our goal to have everything under construction in a years time," he said. The bond oversight commission also approved the revenue bond proposal last week leaving the plan in the hands of the attorney general's office for a routine legal review. Following the legal review, the bonds will be advertised for sale and with low interest rates now in effect administrators are anticipating a quick return on the bonds.
Top 10 projects from the master plan HI. Multi-purpose Classroom Building with 76,000 square feet of space to relieve overcrowding in the College of Education at an estimated cost of $3.7
million. A complete renovation of Howell Hall which would add a laboratory wing and renovate the existing building by adding 75,000 square feet of space at an estimated cost of $1 million, plus $800,000 of laboratory equipment. 11* University Center expansion adding approximately 170,000 spare feet of space at a cost of $15 million. It would house the Nigh Institue for State Government and the State Historic Archives. Auxiliary income and a $2 per credit hour facility fee hikewould contribute to
the cost. 1i* Library expansion adding 83,000 square feet at a cost of $8.7 million. A library facility fee of $2.50 per credit hour per student to finance the expansion has been requested by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. Hi* A fiber optic project to complete connections for the entire campus so all buildings would be networked is estimated at $750,000. Campus parking, landscaping, lighting and campus security improvements valued at $5.45 million. It would construct 3,000 new parking places, pave existing unpaved lots and improve lighting on campus. A $15 parking fee in the fall and spring semesters and a $10 parking fee in the
summer semester would contribute to the cost of the improvements. 1* A 164-seat business building lecture hall in the business college in addition to the existing building. The 15, 300-square-foot expansion would cost
$365,000. The Scene Shop addition would add 2,000 square feet to Mitchell Hall. The addition would be used to build and store props and other materials for performances. It would cost $400,000. mi Renovations and expansion to the Communications Building would add 21,350 square feet at a cost of $600,000. 1* Renovation of the industrial arts building in the Fine Arts-Liberal Arts College area at a cost of $500,000.

Master plan approval a plus for UCO
k
Last week the University of Central Oklahoma was given the green light to initiate its master plan with the approval of UCO revenue bonds by the State Regents for Higher Education and the State Bond Oversight Commission. With their approval, UCO is set to embark on a new mission and a new look for this campus. The master plan will remodel this campus to better aid the students in their pursuit of a higher education. The most important facet of the master plan is classroom expansion. In the near future students will be able to sit in an adequate classroom and stretch their arms without hitting their neighbor. Also, more parking, lighting, landscaping and campus safety features will be added. And for the faculty, new office space will be available.
_
A hefty thank-you is sent to the regents and the state legislature for their willingness to try something different and unique. UCO will certainly prosper in the future for it.
Vote today Beginning today and tomorrow, the University of Central Oklahoma Student Government Association will hold its annual general elections. Voting polls are located in the second floor of the University Center near the bookstore. Students should make a quick trip over there and vote. Although the favorite excuse is "I don't know who or what about any of the candidates and I'm just here long enough to go to class," it still is important to make an effort to explore the candidates platforms. In this issue of The Vista on page four, there is a blurb from each of the presidential candidates and the names of vice-presidents and senators. Some candidates have posted fliers listing their qualifications and ideas. It's well known that students are always in a hurry, but stopping for just a moment to become familiar with a candidate and voting can make a difference in a broad range of issues at this university. The SGA plays a vital role in issues that affect students directly. It's only right that students become involved in the process that elects the SGA.

Student imagines in politics
U
se your imagination-part 2— The sun was glitter ing over the beautiful Potomac River as my car was on it's way to the White House to meet the most powerful man in this world. A brief security check and finally I found my way to the oval office. The president was at his desk, I took a chair in front of him. For him, the last 49 days were not easy, learning to perform a new job, getting used to the White House way and, at the same time, facing tons of criticism. As one of his aids said, "They honeymoon is over even before we got a chance to pull our pants down." After exchanging greetings, the president wanted to know how his old friend George Nigh was doing. "Not so well," was my reply. "The students are not very happy about tuition increase plan and the possibility of having co-ed dorms." "Oh! you can never make the people happy," replied the president. "If I tell them I would allow
gays in the military, they don't like it. If they are given the opportunity of living with the opposite sex, they won't take it, I don't understand these people." "People are always hard to understand, Mr. President, so is your record of post-election broken promises. What happened to the tax-break for the middle class?" The president lost his voice for a few minutes. One of his aids told me whenever someone says something about a post-election promise, the president loses his voice. However, after having a cup of decaffeinated coffee the president regained his voice. "Any advice for your good old friend, Mr. Nigh?" "Yes, tell him not to use 'increase' and 'spend.' He needs to use 'invest' and 'grow,' in the 90s you need to know how to play with words to be successful." "How are you going to face the people in '96, when you don't do what you promised you would
do?" "People have a short memory. Did anyone remember the Desert War for George Bush during the election? No. Before '96 comes, I will make new promises, and afterall, you should understand we make promises to win elections , but we never promises that we are going to keep our promises after the elections." "How is Mrs. Clinton doing?" "She is doing fine. A lot of people have already started calling her the 'Madam President'. It's hard to forget the Nancy Reagan days." "Before I leave Mr. President, one last question. How would you describe your college days in three words?" "Babes, books and booze," was his reply.

Student writes novel during spring break
T
his Spring Break, while others were ready to hit the beach or go skiing, I hit the desk to write the first novel of my life. I already had the plot ready. Kevin McAlester, is a hard-working minimum-wage employee who comes to work everyday at eight in the morning and stays on the clock until late night to do his job. Kevin finds the pleasure of living through his work and finds that his work is the only family that he has in life.
His boss, Mr. Max Clark, who comes to work everyday two hours late and goes home an hour early, doesn't know about Kevin's devotion to work and fires Kevin to face economic hard time. However, I decided to write a love story instead. An American free lance journalist Kevin McAlester goes to Rome to interview Italy's number one porno star Christian Pablos. In a small Roman cafe, over a cup of hot chocolate, they fall in love. However, a million-dollar network offer is waiting for Kevin
back home and Christina is at the top of her career. Through their sacrifice, they learn love not only brings people closer, it throws them out thousands of miles apart. Even today, when Christina drives her limousine or Kevin receives his Emmy awards, a small sigh reminds them of the pains of fulfillment of life. Thus began the quest of my search for a hit Hollywood movie script. —

Regents listen to testimony about tuition hikes By Roy Howe
Staff Writer The State Regents for Higher Education listened to testimony last week concerning a proposed seven-year tuition hike. The increase would generate $15 million. • The proposed tuition hike is to bring the student/taxpayer dollar ratio to one third. Oklahoma stu-
dents currently pay 23 percent of the cost for their education while the state funds the rest. "A 10-percent increase in tuition is in no way to offset the nine-percent reduction in state funds. These are two different dogs and in no way offset each other," said Donald B Halverstadt, state regents' chairman. According to the state regents
proposal, tuition at UCO for instate freshmen and sophomore classes would increase by 10 percent the next two years from the now $37.75 per credit-hour rate to $45.50 per credit-hour by the 1994-95 school year. Resident junior and senior level classes would see a tuition increase of nine percent each year for the next two years, bringing
their payments from the current $38.50 per credit-hour to $46 per credit-hour for the 1994-95 academic year. Tuition for in-state students would then increase by roughly two percent for the next five years for lower and upper division classes. Tuition increases for students
from outside the state are figured at about the same rate. "As student body president, I am compelled to represent the students at the University of Central Oklahoma," said Joacquin Stevens, UCO student government assocaiton president. "I am here to speak against the proposed 10percent increase."
