Debate team nabs first By Ann Hamilton Staff Writer Central State University debate teams placed first, third and sixth at the Cross Examination Debate Association National Tournament held March 29 through April 2 at Southwest Missouri State University in Springfield. Winning the national title was the team of Charles Mallard and Josh Hoe. Placing third was the team of Wayne Harrell and Bartley Logsdon and placing sixth

were Jon Parsley and Sean Huffman. Two hundred thirty-eight teams competed, representing 115 schools. "This is the stuff dreams are made of," Mallard said. "I never imagined it would happen." "We had really good coaching throughout the year, and it made a difference," Mallard said. Twenty individual speakers were recognized at the national tournament. CSU had five speakers in the top 20. Huffman was

fifth; Mallard was 14th; Parsley, 17th; Harrell, 18th and Hoe placed 19th. "This is everything I've been working toward for eight years," said Hoe. "It represents an awful lot of time." Doug Duke, debate director, said the teams were somewhat superstitious during the tournament. "I wore the same clothes, shoes, even underwear," said Mallard. Please see DEBATE on page 4.

college of business motto into the design, Fortenberry said, and will be printed on College of Business Administration materials. such as memos, banners, letterheads and envelopes.

By Erin Mitchell Student Writer A "very innovative and creative" logo design, submitted by Dana Palmer for a Central State University College of Business contest, was chosen from more than 100 entries, said Dr. Ed Fortenberry, chairperson of the business department. Palmer, a junior advertising major with a minor in graphic design, will be awarded $250 for her entry April 13 at the Annual College of Business Spring Fling at Hafer Park.

Palmer said she first designed the logo for an assignment in class, then submitted it in the contest. The winning logo was selected by a committee of a faculty representatives from each department in the College of Business Administration and the presidents of all business clubs, Fortenberry said. The logo incorporated the new

The motto written by Delena Lang, "Learning Today—Leading Tomorrow," won the college of business contest last semester. The logo-motto contests were held to find a design expressing the mission of the College of Business Administration as a part of CSU's centennial celebration, Fortenberry said.

The Central State University Placement Office is not doing an adequate job of finding job opportunities for CSU students, a student senator alleged Tuesday. "The placement office is a joke," said the senator, Robyn Walker. "I think they are grossly inefficient because they don't do a job they were established to do." "The placement office does not organize regular, campus-wide events, like the Career Day held by the College of Business Administration for their graduates, or the jobs fair sponsored by the Nigh Institute of State Government," Walker said. The biggest problem, Walker said, is that the office does very little to encourage business organizations to come to the campus and speak with potential CSU graduates. The problem is compounded by the fact that CSU's placement services are bunched together in one office in the University Center with alumni and special events, Walker said. "Those are very important university functions that should not all be lumped together under one. person," Walker said. "They really need to have separate offices." Also, CSU students receive little help in their job search, Walker said. "Most people who had gone to the office for assistance just got frustrated and blew it off," Walker said. Instead, Walker said, CSU graduates have to find jobs through newspaper advertisements, employment agencies and networks of friends. Kent Todd, director of alumni, placement and special events, was not available for comment at presstime. However, a spokesperson from the office denied the students' complaints. "We go out of our way to help students," the spokeperson said.

"We will provide job vacancies to students if they need them, but we don't have the resources to meet each and every need." One full-time and one part-time staff provide placement services to students. "It is a student's responsibility to come to the office, and the services we provide students are on a first-come, first-served basis," the spokeperson said. The services include maintaining job files, posting vacancies, holding interviews, mailing out fliers, and assisting students in transcripts, recommendations and resumes, the spokeperson said. About 30 companies have set up interviews in the office premises since Feb. 6, with a student turnout of about 250. The last interview is scheduled April 19, the spokeperson said. "A majority of the companies wants business graduates, or majors with emphasis on business," the spokeperson said. The University of Oklahoma held 8,000 on-campus job interviews last year, according to Bill Audas, director of OU's Career Planning and Placement Services Office. "We have 300 different organizations that come to OU annually, with about 2,000 students registered last year for on-campus interviews and job referrals," Audas said. "The office's mission is to further opportunities employers provide to the potential of OU students," Audas said. "We are in the opportunity business." Carla Derrick, coordinator of Student Employment and Placement Office at Rose State College, said most job interviews are conducted in employers' office, not at the campus. "Our objective is to assist students with job-seeking skills and to assist students with job skills," Derrick said. Workshops on how to write resumes and how to interview for job positions are among the office's services, Derrick said.

Viewpoints

Legislative inaction threatens education are not just deferring public education's development: Progress for Oklahoma higher education hangs in limbo.

By DeWayne Smoot Editor in chief Self-serving politicians who, evidently, fill the senate chambers in the Oklahoma Legislature have—once again—placed Oklahoma at the back of the pack when it comes to educational issues. Kentucky legislators just passed a $1.26 billion tax package that will boost its failing school systems out of the pits to, at least, meet national standards. Meanwhile, Oklahoma public schools are drowning in the wake of ignorance, a result of the lack of action in the state Senate. Prompting the Kentucky Legislature was its supreme court's ruling against inadequate and unequitable funding for school districts. Oklahoma school districts have suffered from both funding foibles for several years. As the state's larger school districts await interim allocations, mid-term funding to support swelling enrollment figures, Oklahoma's elected representatives are planning political coups for next fall's elections. Unfortunately, children are expected to pay for partisan politics by sacrificing educational quality. The two or three votes needed in the Senate to approve the emergency clause to send House Bill 1017 to the governor's desk

House Bill 2283, containing higher education appropriations for fiscal year 1991, provides almost $508.6 million for higher learning, a $50 million increase. However, its authors warn that this 10.9 percent funding increase will never be realized if House Bill 1017 isn't passed with the emergency clause intact. Because of the Legislature's funding fiasco, Central State University now faces the dilemma of preparing next year's budget at—or below—last year's funding level. Administrators claim a 7 percent cut in funds won't hamper educational quality here, but that remains to be seen. The future well-being of the state— especially, its students, faculty and administrative staff—depends on the Legislature. The state can not afford to pay elected representatives who are afraid to take a stance in support of education . The higher educational community has a strong voting voice in the state and lawmakers must hear its cries for support. Lawmakers must stand up in support of education and the state despite accusations and threats to destroy political careers in front-page editorials.

Newspaper, drivers inspire letters Pushy cars have bad-mannered drivers at wheel To the Editor:

an example of this phenomenon the word diet. The word diet was never meant to be a substitute for, or be a limit to the amount of food intake into the body. Over the years, weight and the ideal-self has become a favorite pasttime. So the word diet became more than what man and animal eats on a regular basis. It became a baseline for determining obesity. In comparison, pedestrians became a mutation from earlier social influences. "Watch out for the other guy; look both ways before crossing" became a way of thought, and self-defensiveness became self-reflexsive, and selfevasiveness became a product of the norm. Who's in danger? The pedestrian might collide with a car or a car might collide with a pedestrian? The ultimate question is who is responsible? Or who's in control? Then you ask, who am I?

This is a subject that has been tossed about, I'm sure, several times in the past. It's a subject that commuters, faculty, and the general student body consider little during the week, especially at noon and around 8 a.m. I'm directing your attention to the pedestrians and the roadways of Central State University and the surrounding area of Edmond. Do pedestrians have the right-away when attempting to cross the street or riot, or am I an extraterrestrial from a more just planet? If we are suited for education and strive for enlightenment then why have we forgotten semantics in roadway friendliness?, Ken Freeman The tendencies, today, is if Staff photographer you're caught in the middle of the street is to stop right before impact and honk the horn. This, I suppose, is to place the pedestrian at fault. Of course, the only thing the pedestrian is thinking about, before impact, is insurance. Will my insurance be enough to support To the Editor: my wife and children if I die?

To ad- coverage of the Greek system. venture a guess, I would submit as Last month, an article was pub-

Greek system not getting fair media coverage

lished something to the effect of "Frats damage Yugo." Unfortunately, the article was valid and I suppose it was newsworthy. The article was in accordance with the negative image that the CSU Greek system has incurred. We have received the "Animal House" label with absolutely nothing to substantiate it, unless, of course, trying to fit people into a vehicle is considered deviant behavior. The Vista reporters contact us

frequently and are informed of upcoming events which have not been printed such as: assisting the Big Brother-Little Brother organization run a haunted house for children; donation of $150 to the Fraternal Order of Police in our attempt to help the needy, and giving a local family $100 so they could have a warm Christmas. In a combined effort, Alpha Tau Omega and the Delta Zeta sorority collected food for the poor and conducted a social service for blind and deaf people. As an intricate part of the Greek system community projects are undertaken on a monthly basis. I, like most other students, enjoy reading The Vista. I wish a more thorough manner of reporting could take place in the future.

Vista in error, editing changes letter meaning To the Editor:

I have often been dismayed by the poor use of English in the letters to the editor, however it has come to my attention that it may not be the writers who have grammatical deficiencies but you, the editor. A case in point is Lee Overstreet's letter of March 15. I read the original—it did not contain the phrase "as concerned math students, I ..." As editor, you have the right to change letters "in order to fit space limitations and to comply with libel laws." There is no point in editing usage or rewording phrases, especially when they are already correct, though just not quite the way you would have said it. Words you changed in Mr. Overstreet's letter did indeed alter his meaning, particularly the strange use of "faculty" as a synonym for "name" in paragraph two. If a writer uses poor English or colloquialisms, they should remain. The use of "sic" can indicate that these are the author's original words. And if a letter is wellcomposed, please don't try to make "improvements!"

SA reserves adviser vote, gives nod to bicycle racks By Andrew Smith Staff Writer The Student Association senate rammed through two resolutions and passed a bill concerning placement of bicycle racks for students while holding back on a resolution concerning academic adviser evaluation. Resolution 89-215 (bicycle racks), under old business, had no report from commuter affairs. Slane moved the session to a roll-call vote which passed with nine for, one pass, and one abstention. In other business, Vice President Monte Townsend reminded senators to attend election poll hours Monday through Thursday. Townsend, under executive reports, said Slane remains the only candidate vying for the vice presidency of the Student Association. The five presidential candidates are: Sen. Eddie Hagler; Sen. Peter Regan; Sen. Sean Slavin; Sen. Jason Snow; and former Speaker Randal Terrill. "Everyone who turned in information will be on the ballot," Townsend said. "An open forum will be

held in Pegasus Theater (Liberal Arts Building). It is big enough for every concerned student." Presidential candidates will have 24 hours to prepare for questions Wednesday, Townsend said. Controversy over honest and fair judgments concerning the coming SA election was discussed in the election committee, Slane said. Sen. Philip Elmore questioned the experience of the senators selected to the continuum committee: Brian Jones, Wendy McRae, Michael Riley and Sichai Wong. "We need people who are honest and fair. They have not decided on whom to vote for and are not bias on their decisions," Slane said. Slane voiced his disapproval of student conduct concerning posters being covered or removed from billboards in various campus buildings. "The next time my sign is down there's no rule of tearing down another sign," Slane said. "It made me dog-gone mad. I don't have a nickle to go around and replace each ad torn down."

Vista editor earns $500 scholarship By Jana Potts Student Writer A $500 scholarship provided by the Associated Press/Oklahoma News Executives will be awarded to DeWayne Smoot, editor of The Vista, May 19 at the AP/ONE annual meeting in Lawton.

Teacher job fair to attract forty school districts Central State University's Placement Office and College of Business are sponsoring the Teacher Job Fair from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. April 5 in the University Center Ballroom. "Forty schools are scheduled to attended," said Raynelle Bristow, Placement office secretary. Schools from Texas, Nevada, Missouri, Kansas, California and Oklahoma will have booths representatives. Oklahoma schools such as Tulsa, Bethany, Enid, Oklahoma City and McAlester will also have representatives. Bristow said 400 letters, concerning the job fair, were sent to student teachers. Students interested should bring copies of their transcript and resume. A copy of each should be given to the different school system they are interested in.

The junior newspaper journalism major was chosen to receive the scholarship by the Central State University journalism department March 26. "He's done an outstanding job as editor," said Dennie Hall, assistant professor of journalism. Hall said Smoot is most deserving of the award. "I'm grateful for the recognition from my peers, and I'm glad I have been able to perform a valuable service for the university," Smoot said. Selection of the recipient was made entirely by the CSU journalism department. In a letter to Smoot, Larry Gittings, AP/ONE president, extended his congratulations and encouraged him to attend the Lawton convention. .A%%%N%%%%%%N%%%

By Debbie Blossom Staff Writer A Central State University professor who began her career as a probation officer in New York City has been selected as the Distinguished Scholar for 1989-90 by the CSU chapter of the American Association of University Professors, said Mary Jane NelsonRiley, chapter president. Dr. Joan Luxenburg, associate professor of sociology, will be honored at a reception following a presentation of her topic, "Experiences in Sociological Research" from 2 to 3 p.m. April 19 at the

Liberal Arts Building in the Pegasus Theatre. Born in New York, Luxenburg received a master's degree from New York University, and a master's and a doctorate in education from Columbia University. Since she came to CSU in 1977, she also obtained a master's of social work at Oklahoma University. Luxenburg authored or coauthored 39 papers which she has presented at various professional meetings across the United States, wrote one book, and co-wrote chapters in three others. "My latest interest is in the area of law, such as the new legislation about laws concerning the spread of acquired immune deficiency

syndrone," said Luxenburg, in reference to her volunteer work for the local AIDS support program in Oklahoma City. Since 1988, Luxenburg has served as chairman for the sexual behavior division of the Society for the Study of Social Problems.

for their accomplishments over the entire year. The University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) placed first and Kansas State University (KSU) was second. "This is a goal every debater and every coach works for. I don't

think it's hit us yet. Right now it feels like just another tournament rather than nationals," Duke said. "I don't know what we'll do with all this extra time now," Duke said. "I guess I'll go back to grading papers."

In addition, Luxenburg was named "Outstanding Faculty Woman" by the CSU Association of Women Students in 1989. The CSU screening committee for the award included Dr. Tom Guild, business, Dr. Darry Carlstone, physics, Dr. Kathleen Black, health, physical education, recreation and dance, and committee chairman Dr. Don Green, history.

Candidates take stand on Apriss""s'n

By Andrew Smith

Staff Writer

Five presidential candidates have announced their intention to run for office, but only one will win and the information provided should help decide which candidate supports views shared by the student body regarding important issues: tuition increases, activity fees, and who should be in charge of student fmances. Eddie Hagler Eddie Hagler, Student Association senator, bases his qualifications for SA president on his involvement in school politics since Spring 1989. Hagler does not view tuition increases as favorable. "I have seen tuition increase from approximately $33 per three credit hour class to over $100," he said. "I think this is outrageous." Concerning activity fees, he

said most of the move to control activity fees has been with aim of reducing funds to football and other sports teams. "I am not an athlete, but I do enjoy a good football game if I have an emotional stake in it," Hagler said. "Our team had a winless season last time. This (football season), along with the general state of dispair of the football stadium and the school in general indicates more money is needed." According to Hagler, classrooms are becoming harder to get into and is most often uncomfortable partially due to overcrowding. Peter Regan Peter Joseph Regan, SA historian, political science major, hopes to win the election and work with students on campus to form a better student government. "I plan on working as a liaison between the students and administration to form a true student government," Regan said. "I don't

consider myself an eloquent speaker, but I can effectively communicate with people. I can use this to my advantage to get insight from others." Regan, co-author of resolution 89-209 (Student Activity Fees Allocation), said he is concern toward the unbalanced financial budget. "I am an author on the bill that gives the senate money in order to return some of the student activity fees to student hands and help defer operation costs," Regan said. Sean Slavin Sean Patrick Slavin, a senior majoring in chemistry and biology, is SA director of academic affairs. Slavin, an Edmond graduate, said his qualifications for president are prior activities in the senate and other clubs like Alpha Chi, Thatcher Hall Council, Residence Hall Association (RHA), and Presidents' Club. "I have served as Director of

89-209 (tution hike disapproval) and was co-author to resolution 89-204 (name change). Randal Terrill Randal Don Terrill, a junior majoring in political science, believes he can make a difference. "Historically, the Student Association hasn't done enough for the student body," Terrill said. "It is my intention to change that. Additionally, I feel I am most qualified and deserving, maybe not because of current seniority, rank or whom I know, but because of experience, group initiative, personal pride, and my love of the Student Association." His campaign issues are: no tution increases; organizational funding; extended library hours (weekends); more and better student parking; no class or faculty cuts; extended residence hall visitation hours; and creation of a campus-wide Student Association Scholarship ($500/semester).

Academic Affairs and as a student senator amounting to two consecutive years of active participation in student government," Slavin said. "I started two clubs from the ground up and was involved in at least five other organizations." "I feel the experience that I have and ideas which I hold would be the key factor in getting the Student Association moving in a more positive role," Slavin said. "We must use different tactics in the future if students are to address the issues facing them." Jason Snow Jason Snow, freshmen SA senator, claims his main influence is his age and fresh ideas. "I have been a (SA) senator for two semester," Snow said. "I live on campus and chairman of the housing committee. I base my decisions on what students want, and I don't 1-et my ego get in the way." "If all fails, I'd like to see the largest turn-out in voting," Snow said. "I lead by action, not by bunch of words." Snow served as chairman in special committee to resolution

Students arrested on larceny charge said Campus Police. Although charges are still pending, Lovin has been implicated in recent auto burglaries and concealment of stolen property on campus, said Campus Police. Investigation revealed that Loyin was identified in the robbery of the Circle K convience store at Ayers and Broadway, according to police reports. Charges were filed with the District Attorney's office Thursday, March 29, on one count of armed robbery. Dr. Deanna Land, associate director of student affairs, said there is no blanket university discipline policy for incidents of this nature. Penalties vary with each case. Lovin's bond was set at $500, and his court date is scheduled for 9 a.m. April 26. Judge Susan Bragg will hear the case.

OSGA wa es activity fee battle By DeWayne Smoot

Editor in chief Oklahoma student government leaders have launched an effort to gain more control of the $8 million collected through student activity fees at state universities and colleges. Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education endorsed a recommendation proposed by the Student Advisory Board (SAB) June 26, 1989, encouraging local governing boards "to solicit input from both student government and administration when considering policy relating to the use of student activity fees." However, Central State University students are locked in a battle with administrators who don't want to turn control of the $957,000 activity budget to the student government. Currently, just more than 1 percent of the student activity budget, about $18,000, is allocated to the Student Association Senate. Higher education Chancellor Hans Brisch sent letters to all the institutional presidents informing them of the regents' new policy. "On behalf of the state regents, you and your governing boards are encouraged to review and adopt guidelines consistent with these endorsed principles," said Brisch in his letter dated July 9, 1989. Dr. Betty Leone, executive secretary for the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges, said student activity fees have been discussed. But, as far as any action, she said there has been none. Statutes pose problems Jeff Shilling, executive director of the Oklahoma Student Government Association, said control of student activity fees in Oklahoma "is a tough issue." Shilling, who formerly served as Student Association president for two years at CSU, said the primary problem with activity fees stems from vague state statutes. "In Oklahoma, student activity fees are not ever legally given to anybody," said Shilling, primary author of the recommendations adopted by the higher regents. Shilling said in most other states, statutes outline how student activity fees should be spent. In Oklahoma, expenditures of student activity fees are left up to the local governing boards, but it gives the state regents—or higher regents—the sole power to set and establish limits for institutions charging activity fees. "State law refers to institutions as the 'custodian' of the (student activity fee) funds. But," Shilling said, "the word custodian doesn't mean owner, it means holder. "It (state law) refers to activity fees in the same manner as it does monies generated by student organizations. What we are seeking for the future is statutory change, specifically giving students, if not rights, valid and very sincere input into the budgetary process," he said.

State campuses show support Shilling said student governments statewide, with the exception of Oklahoma University, support the new policy state regents adopted in June. The University Center at Tulsa, which operates under the direction of the higher regents, has already adopted state regents' policy. OU's policy concerning student activity fees already gives 100 percent control to a four-student, one-administrator board. However, if the administrative representative disagrees with the board's majority, he—or she— can submit a recommendation along with the students' proposal which would then go before the local governing board for approval. Shilling said student government factions pursuing changes in the current statutes are primarily based at Cameron University, Lawton; CSU; Northeastern State University, Tahlequah and Tulsa Junior College. CSU survey favorable In an informal survey conducted during student elections in November, 78.1 percent of the student body wanted at least partial control of student activity fees, while 19.2 percent preferred total control of the funds. In the same questionnaire, 65.1 percent of the students who responded said committees consisting of student, faculty and administrators should have the final say in how student activity funds should be spent. Those same respondents think student activity funds should be prioritized to fund entertainment and self-help activities. Half of the students surveyed believe campus organizations—which currently receive only 1 percent of the activity fee budget should receive a larger share of the funds. David Slane, senate speaker at CSU, pushed a resolution through the Student Association Senate March 15 which he hopes will persuade CSU President Bill Lillard to loosen the purse strings on the student activity budget. Resolution 89-211, if approved by Lillard, will make available $500 each semester for organizations that can demonstrate need and a plan that will benefit the student body. "If we can show the admini stration we (SA Senate) are responsible with the funds, show that we have oversight, it will signal to the administration and Dr. Lillard that the senate is responsible with funds," Slane said. Administrators leary However, Joyce Mounce, administrative vice president, said she doesn't think the Student Senate will increase their control of activity funds anytime soon. "As far as control is concerned—writing checks without supervision—I don't think that will happen as long as Dr. Lillard is president because of bad experiences at other universities,"

Mounce said. Mounce said, as far as student input goes, she is open to suggestions as to what the best vehicle is for students to get involved in the budgeting process. Shilling said the SAB proposal recommends a partnership control, sharing the responsibility of activity fund control with administrators. Any attempt of misuse or mismanagement of funds then would have to be out of negligence of both student government and administration. "When we advocate student control we are not advocating a relinquishing of participation on the part of the administration," Shill-

ing said. Shilling said there is no doubt abuse can happen when student government has control. However, probably no more than what can go on with the existing structure. "Right now, there's a real hesitancy in Oklahoma for there to be real cooperation bewteen faculty, students and administrators. And it's getting to the point where, if we don't see some real give and take between all three of those parties—and we might as well throw the regents in as a fourth— the only way students are going to get an equitable voice is to really lobby hard," Shilling said.

Shilling said OSGA lobbied state regents for almost five years for a policy. Since their partial victory with the adoption of four basic principles in June, they are focusing their efforts on lawmakers. "What we need is hundreds, if not thousands of students up there at the state capitol to really push this effort forward," Shilling said. According to Shilling, controlling student activity fees is the basis and foundation to build upon to have an effective voice and student input at any college or university. "If you don't have the money, you've already lost the war."

Tips on working for state offered at campus event By Marie Bigger Student Writer

The Nigh Institute of State Government sponsored a symposium at Central State University addressing career opportunities in state government. Sixteen special sessions were conducted primarily by the staff of the office of Personnel Management and several other state agencies. Thirty-eight agencies were represented with approximately 64 people leading the sessions, according to Ed Pugh, CSU assistant administrator. The sessions covered a general overview of careers in Oklahoma state government as well as special career opportunities in data processing, human resources and training, financial management, social services, law enforcement and environmental science. A special session on minority recruitment was directed at minority groups and handicapped stuN

Behavior class topic of talk By Erin Mitchell Student Writer An interpersonal behavior course offered at Central State University was examined at the Eastern Region Conference for the Association for Business Communication in Boston, March 15-18. The interpersonal communications elective course is taught by Dr. Mary Jane Nelson, CSU professor of organizational communication and behavior, who attended the conference. The conference theme was the use of psychology

in teaching business communication, Nelson said. "I introduced the group to the behavioral models that I use with case studies to teach students how to better understand other people," Nelson said. "We also discussed the self study I have students do," Nelson said. "I give them four personality tests, and they write a term paper in which they analyze themselves." "We come at the class from both angles because I really don't think you can understand other people until you understand yourself," Nelson said.

dents. Another session explained the state's Albert Public Internship Program. "About 500 students participated in the seminar," Pugh said. "This is the first time the state ever did a whole seminar. "Oklahoma State University and the University of Oklahoma have both requested similar sessions," Pugh said. "We hope this will be an annual affair at CSU. Next time we hope to offer even more of a variety of jobs." About 200 people attended a luncheon session featuring Oklahoma Attorney General Robert Henry.

Hannah Atkins, Oklahoma secretary of state, introduced Henry, remarking that the state was in good hands with young people like Robert Henry. "Growing up I was taught that everyone should take part in government, whether paid or volunteer, it's our duty," Henry said. "How is it, with the past examples in American history," Henry said, "did we come to the conclusion that working for the government was anything but noble? "Government is here to stay," Henry said. "If government is evil, as Nixon said, then we are evil, because we are the government."

Campus awaits first philosophy seminar By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Internationally-known philosopher Dr. John Searle will be the keynote speaker at the annual Mountains-Plains Philosophy Conference Sept. 27-29 held for the first time at Central State University. Dr. Anthony Graybosch, assistant professor of humanities and philosophy, said the objective of the conference is to discuss a selected philosophical topic and to promote study, research and discussion among philosophers in the region. "1 chose Dr. Searle because of his works in promoting philosophy and the fact that he is a stimulating speaker," said Graybosch, who is chairperson of the local organizing committee for the conference. A philosophy professor in the University of California at Berkeley, Searle is a well-known writer in languages and artificial intelligence, Graybosch said. Searle's books include "The Campus War: A Sympathetic Look at the University in Agony" and "The Philosophy of Language." He also has published articles on philosophy, skiing, stu-

dent unrest and academic freedom. Searle earned his bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees in philosophy from Oxford University between 1955 and 1959. He was also a lecturer at the university during his graduate studies. CSU's humanities and philosophy department received a $1,200 grant from the New York-based Franklin J. Matchette Foundation to meet Searle's honorarium and other conference expenses, Graybosch said. "I am real excited about the conference because it shows a small philosophy department like ours is capable of hosting a regional conference," Graybosch said. "Also, it gives name recognition to CSU because the conference has never met in Oklahoma." The department mailed a call for papers, based on the theme "From The Inside Out: Persons and Values," to 400 colleges and universities in the region, Graybosch said. Graybosch said he expects about 60 people will participate in the September conference. "Because of the grant we received, students are welcome to attend the conference free of charge," Graybosch said.

Indian culture expressed War cries and the sound of Indian drums echoed through University Center March 31 during the 18th Annual Indian Heritage Week Powwow. About 600 people attended the powwow, which featured a traditional Indian meal, said James Noley, Coordinator of Multicultural Student Services. "People came from across the state, many from northern and

western Oklahoma," Noley said. "There were Indian adults, students and guest dancers." Spectators, including students from John Marshall High School and West German exchange students, joined in a variety of native dances, Noley said. The dances are a form of cultural expression, in honor of an individual or celebration of an occasion, Noley said.

"Gourd dances," a social dance, "two step" and "round" were performed along with "war" dances, Noley said. Colorful costumes represent the different tribes. During the powwow, a lucky ticket holder received a hand made blanket, and another with a basket of groceries. Powwows take place throughout the state and country in spring and summer months.

Sports 8th-rated Aggies drop Broncho nine

Golfers place 4th in classic By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

By Ray Dozier Student Writer

Senior John Shelly finished in a three-way tie for third place as the Broncho golf team placed fouth hosting the Central State University Golf Classic at Lincoln Park West Golf Course in Oklahoma City Monday and Tuesday. A poor first round disabled the team and forced a disappointing tournament, said Head Coach Skip Wagnon. "I expected us to play better. We've really not been playing as well as I expected us to," he said. "We should still be competitive in the conference tournament (April 16-19)." CSU fired a team total of 916, 28 strokes off the pace of Lone Star Conference foe and firstplace Cameron University. Shelly totalled 223 with scores of 78-70-75, just seven strokes off the pace set by individual winner Tres Newton of Cameron. Senior Tim Adler finished with a total of 227 along with teammate Chris Carpenter's and Allan Polhill's 233 total.

Cameron University swept a baseball doubleheader from Central State University Tuesday, blasting the Bronchos, 14-2, in the first game and taking the extra inning nightcap, 11-10. The Aggies, ranked 8th in NCAA II, scored six runs in the top of the fourth inning of the first game, heading to their first win. The Bronchos first score came in the first inning when Curtis Underwood's base hit scored Buddy Canning in the first inning for a 1-0 lead. The Aggies came back in the third on a three-run homer by Diego Hernandez, then went on a 6-run scoring spree in the fourth to put the game away. The Bronchos other run came in the third when Brian Burden smashed a hit to right field scoring Mike Ledbetter. Tim McKnight went the distance on the mound for CU, striking out six CSU batters, allowing only five hits.

Four pitchers went to the mound for CSU, but Jay Sparks received the loss going three and one-third innings, dropping to 2-3 for the year. The second game was the first to go extra innings for the Bronchos this year. CU opened with two runs in the top of the first when Tom Wagner belted a home run, scoring himself and Younker. CSU scored three in the bottom of the first for a 3-2 lead. Richard Jorge scored from third base on a wild pitch, and Burden and Canning scored on a couple of errors by CU's third baseman. The Aggies held a 7-4 lead going into the bottom of the sixth, but CSU tied it up. Jorge's triple scored Shawn Shaw, then Burden ripped a double to score Jorge. Canning's single scored Burden. CU scored four runs in the top of the eighth to lead, 11-7. With two outs in the bottom of the eighth, Curtis Underwood blasted a three-run homer, his fourth this year, to bring CSU within one run.

Sports Rap

Rebels devilish in win against Blue Devils The most competitive NCAA basketball tournament in history was billed as the battle between good and evil. The tradition-rich Duke Blue Devils battled the badboy Rebels of Nevada-Las Vegas. Evil prevailed as the Rebels blasted Duke, 103-73. The game figured to end with a buzzer-beater similar to 20-some other games decided by three points or less, but UNLV destoyed that theory along with the Bill Blue Devils Monday night in Denver, Colo. The badboy Rebels ran away with a lopsided reKramer cord rout and sent fans who had paid in excess of $1,000 away with five minutes still remaining in the game. The massacre no doubt reminded many sports nuts of the incredibly boring, although impressive, display by "Broadbay" Joe and the 49'ers in the Super Bowl. The Rebels accomplished some great feats this year, vaulting them into the limelight of premiere teams in the land. In 1989, the Rebs had only the fourth-best field-goal percentage and eighth-best (worst) rebounding margin per game. This year, 12 active players were served suspensions for such things as fighting and grades and even unpaid telephone bills. During the first semester, the Rebels played without the likes of David Butler (ineligible due to grades) and All-American David Johnson (JC transfer), but they managed to pull together with the outstanding leadership of Stacey Augmon and three-point sensation, guard Anderson Hunt. This team may have been known for a deadly 3-point attack if not for the madmen of Marymount (Loyola that is), who aired up nearly 1,000 3-point shot attempts in 1990. Nevertheless, UNLV lived up to their pre-season billing as the topranked team in the nation. Now that college basketball is over, I guess America's sportschair potatoes bored with hoops, can look forward to the continued mishaps of the Major league baseball season.

Broncho netters improve to 11-2 By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

The 17th-ranked NCAA II Central State University men's tennis team improved to 11-2 over the weekend following two victories and a loss in matches against three Lone Star State foes. The Bronchos, ranked nationally for the first time this year, defeated Collin (Texas) Community Junior College and West Texas State University by an identical 6-3 score Saturday after losing to the University of TexasArlington, 6-3, Friday. Against CJC in Plano, the Bronchos won five of six singles matches, clinching the victory, before winning one of three doubles matches. Jong Demonteverde, ranked 15th in the nation in the Volvo Tennis Collegiate individual ratings, began the match with a 5-7, 6-3, 6-2 victory against CJC's Ali Colak in No. 1 singles. Fort Myers, Fla., product Steve Hedrick followed with a 5-7, 6-0, 6-3 No. 2 singles victory against CJC's George Cesin before CSU's

Elton Jenkins defeated Danny Rickabus, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4. Hank Pelligrini and Mont Roper also took victories from their CJC opponets. Pelligrini defeated Regan Reitzel, 2-6, 6-4, 6-2, and Roper defeated Shane Johnson in a 6-4, 6-4, straight-set match. At No. 6 singles, CJC's Gary Breen oulasted CSU's Joseph Santiago, 6-2, 2-6, 6-3. The No. 2 doubles pair of Hedrick and Jenkins defeated CJC's team of Cesin and Reitzel, 6-1, 6-0. CSU, earlier in the day, beat WTSU as Santiago clinched a team-victory with a 7-6, 6-1 win against Mitchell Allen. Demonteverde, Hedrick, Jenkins and Roper also won singles matches, and the tendem of Pelligrini and Tom Schmidt defeated WTSU's pair of Allen and Jonas Brannhult, 6-1, 7-5, in No. 3 doubles. In Arlington, UTA won the first two matches, defeating both Demonteverde and Hedrick. Jenkins and Roper won the only singles matches with Jenkins taking a 6-1, 6-1 win from Chris Jauz and Roper defeating Eric Dana, 6-0, 6-4.

Women's tennis team splits with Texans By Jana Potts

Student Writer

Central State University's women's tennis team was narrowly defeated by Collin (Texas) Community Junior College, 5-4, Saturday in Plano. The Lady Bronchos, 2-5, defeated the University of TexasArlington, 9-0, Friday. Against CJC, CSU won the first two matches and three of six singles matches. Jennie Biswell, a 5-foot-3 CSU junior from Plano, defeated Ann Kirkpatrick of CJC, 6-3, 6-4. CSU's Jenny Marcos defeated Vanessa Linsey 6-2, 6-3 and CSU senior Samantha Cass won by default. Biswell and Marcos, teaming for No. 1 doubles, played three sets before falling, 3-6, 6-3, 6-1, to the duo of Kirkpatrick and Lindsey. CSU's Karissa Kennedy and Julie Skelton teamed for doubles and won by default. "Our third staight win was stopped when we lost the third set at No. 1 doubles. Jennie and Jenny

had beaten the same two girls in singles but just could not maintain their high level of play in doubles," said Coach Francis Baxter. CSU had a field day against UTA, Baxter said, winning all nine matches. In singles Biswell defeated UTA` s Michelle Soriano, 6-3, 4-6, 6-2. Marcos beat Jilane Nasser 6-2, 7-6, and Skelton beat Lisa Leblond 6-2, 6-3. CSU's Kennedy, a sophomore from Edmond, won against Lori Parker, 6-3, 6-0 and CSU's 4-foot-11 freshman, Sherri Miles, defeated Kristy Cave, 7-6, 6-4.

Spring drills began Monday for the 1990 version of the Broncho football team. Twelve practices without pads are scheduled for spring training, according to new rules passed by NCAA officials. The Bronchos will try to rebound next season from this year's 0-10-1 record, the worst in modern history. (Photo by Ken Freeman)

Spring grid drills underway for CSU By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

Sixty prospective players have been participating in spring football drills since Monday as the Bronchos use their allotted 12 days training. The players, including returning lettermen, redshirt freshmen and several walk-ons, are vying for roster spots for the 1990 varsity football team, whose first game is Sept. 8 against NAIA's Southeastern University in Durant. The Bronchos, 0-10-1 this season, have signed 20 outstanding high school recruits, said Head Coach Gary Howard, back for his

14th year at the helm. CSU will also be assisted by three quality transfers. Defensive backs Jason Stubbs joins the Bronchos from tradition-rich Northeastern A&M along with center Louis Villanveva of Trinity Valley (Texas) Community College and linebacker/defensive end Torrance Cummings of Oklahoma State University. The Bronchos have been picked to finish seventh in the pre-season Lone Star Conference football poll conducted by the Texas A&I sports information office. The Javelinas of Texas A&I are the narrow favorite to win their fourth-straight league title fol-

"On Student Activity Fees," Terrill said, "I think students should have some real and definite input into the way their student activity fee money is spen. " Questions are still being raised as to who will win the election next week. Students are encouraged to vote for candidate of their choice that best represent their view on school topics. "The main theme this Spring election is 'Don't gripe about it, do something about it'. If they don't vote for their candidate," SA Vice President said, "then they shouldn't gripe about who wins."
