Personnel cuts not seen
Regents say UCO is the only institution that would see no personnel reductions Health care plan may require card WASHINGTON (AP) — President Clinton's health-reform plan is likely to require every American to cany a health identification card bearing his or her Social Security number, congressional aides say. Social Security numbers could be used for computerized tracking of medical or insurance records, cutting the health industry's $35 billion annual paperwork bill, aides said. But some worry that using Social Security numbers on medical ID cards could jeopardize the confidentiality of a patient's medical history.
22 million freed for state programs TULSA, Okla. (AP) — State budget-makers got more unexpected good news when the state Tax Commission announced it will free $22 million it had been holding for pending claims. The fund covers the state for legal claims and tax refunds, commission spokeswoman Paula Ross said Monday. Commission attorneys determined the fund had grown much larger than it needed to be, Ms. Ross said. The money could go out by April 12, the Tulsa World's Capitol bureau reported. The state teachers retirement fund will get $10 million of the money. Counties will get $1.5 million for schools and $1.5 million for highways, and the rest will go to the state's general fund.
By Roy Howe Staff Writer After listening to more than two hours of testimony from students, citizens and representatives from the state's colleges and universities, March 24 the State Regents for Higher Education urged institutions to consider invoking financial emergency procedures. These recommendations, on the eve of possible reductions in state appropriations, would ready the institution's governing boards to make necessary personnel reductions for this summer and the coming academic year should the proposed nine percent reductions occur. According to data provided by the state regents, without tuition increases, these cuts would result in the statewide loss of 1,860 jobs at higher education teaching facilities. At Oklahoma institutions for higher learning, personnel costs account for approximately 80 percent of their expenditures. "Because personnel costs make up the largest portion of college and university expenditures, we anticipate that personnel will be the hardest hit," said Donald B. Halverstadt, state regents chairman. The reduction to the University of Central Oklahoma's budget would total $2.9 mil-
lion. Information provided by the state regents shows that of the 26 institutions of higher learning in the state, UCO is the only site that would see no personnel reductions as a result of the budget shortfall. Earlier this year Gov. David Walters called for a nine percent reduction in funding for all state agencies. State appropriations are usually hammered out just before the legislature adjourns in May. With a nine percent reduction in state funding for higher education, state appropriations to higher education for fiscal year 1994 would total $524 million. This is a $51 million shortfall compared to last year's appropriations. Testimony at the state regents' hearings concerning the reductions was given by 24 people. All expressed discontent with the proposed cuts. Most of the educational institutions in the state were represented at the hearing. Bart Binning, UCO instructor and president of the higher education faculty association, expressed his concern to the state regents about higher education's already low funding and what a further reducticn would mean. "In order to meet the efficient needs of higher education," Binning said, "you have to have funds. You have to have funds to buy computers, you have to have funds to
Carnival to hit

Federal health plans may cover abortions WASHINGTON (AP) — The Clinton administration wants federal employee health insurance plans to cover abortions, according to a published report. The proposal will be included in President Clinton's budget to be released later this week. Quoting an unidentified spokesman for the Office of Management and Budget, the newspaper said the budget will call for deletion of the provision and thereby clear the way for the health plans to cover abortion for federal employees and their dependents. See World Wrap, page 10
buy the compact discs and you have to have funds to computerize the library. And to be quite frank, those funds have not been available," he said. "With the projected budget decreases," Binning added, "those funds won' tbe available any time in the foreseeable future and that concerns me." Binning also expressed his concern to the regents that the reduction in allocations would be done without faculty involvement and would not be executed in an equal manner throughout the state system. "If we're going to be reducing funds, everyone needs to be speaking from the same book," he said. Across the state, the elimination of 2,000 classes, a large reduction in fee waiver scholarships and the reduction of summer school budgets could also result from the reduction of state funds. Halverstadt said that the regents' recent proposal to hike class costs is not a reaction to the proposed loss in-state monies to higher education. "A ten percent increase in tuition is in no way to offset the nine percent reduction in state funds," he said. "These are two different dogs and in no way offset each other."

When will bathrooms for commuters be remodeled? The possibility of eviction notices may have scared and upset several Thatcher Hall residents. However, all present residents will not be kicked out of their home away from home until they graduate. University of Central Oklahoma students who live on campus should be happy with the improvements coming to all the residence halls at UCO. Murdaugh will be renovated into two separate halls in time for the fall semester. West Murdaugh will house women, while men will reside in East Murdaugh. Commotion over converting Thatcher Hall from a mens' dormitory to administrative office space should now end. No student who is presently living in Thatcher will be forced to leave. Present Thatcher residents can stay until they graduate. Besides, A.K. Rahman, director of Auxiliary Services, said Thatcher residents will get first preference if they want to move to Murdaugh Hall.
Kevin Blankenship/The Vista
In addition to the Murdaugh changes, all residence hall will see improvements including remodeling the restrooms, adding shower stall doors, changing the lighting and adding new carpets, desks and mattresses. University officials are working hard to improve the residential life for UCO students. How many of the commuters will get their bathrooms remodeled this summer?
What do you think of the master plan?
Stop the stress; daydream As the spring semester comes to a close the grass becomes greener, trees begin to bloom, and the warmer days make going to class a little more difficult. Deadlines for homework and papers make a student's life somewhat worrisome and stressful, as well. But with just two weeks left of regular classes, students can shroud themselves with the thought of summer fun. When the midnight hour rolls around and the studying isn't done, think warm thoughts and go to bed. Think of the long summer days and warm nights where almost anything can happen. Forget how many French revolutions there were. Say the heck with the definitions of those key terms in chapter 45. Relax. There is no sense in developing stress related symptoms while tying up the loose ends during these last couple of weeks. So when the vision becomes blurred, the mind forgets where the cup of coffee is—daydream.

Professor gets grant Student Writer
Bob Mamer A University of Central Oklahoma curriculum and instruction professor has recently received a grant to be used for a program teaching the procedures and methodology of teaching English to children.
Dr. April Haulman received a grant from the Department of Education in Washington, D.C. for approximately $78,000 for the first year and $69,000. This is about average for this type of grant, said Haulman, who has been at UCO for 10 years. Funding for the third year will be asked for in December or January.
The three-year program, which started this spring, will instruct teachers to teach English to students with limited ability in English. Haulman sent surveys to the superintendents of central Oklahoma schools and discovered there was a need for teachers who were instructed to teach English as a second language.
'Children's Book Illustrations' on dislpay in UCO art museum By Jennifer Stipe Student Writer "Children's Book Illustrations", featuring major national works, will be on display through April 14 in the University of Central Oklahoma Art Museum. The collection of original art work was assembled to honor the second editor of children's books in the United States. "May Massee helped establish modern standards of excellence in the field," said Bill Wallo, director of the museum.
Although the entire collection, housed at Emporia State University in Kansas, contains 17,000 works consisting of books; manuscripts; original art work; press proofs; films; filmstrips; correspondence and reminiscences of Massee's guidance, only 60 illustrations are featured in the traveling exhibition. The exhibit displays works from the 1920s to the 1960s from books such as "I Will Adventure," "Rabbit Hill," "Burt Dow," and "The White Stag."
The museum, located in the Art building, features about 12 exhibits per year, said Wallo. Of the approximate 250 visitors per day to the museum, about half are students, said Wallo. "We get many people in from the community," he added. The museum is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday- Friday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, and 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday. Admission is free and the museum is open to the public.

Russia destination for annual summer tour By Connie Price Student Writer A sightseeing trip to Russia is planned for the 17th annual University of Central Oklahoma Summer Tour scheduled for June 20 through July 4, said Dr. William VanOsdol, UCO professor and tour host. The tour group will depart from the Dallas-Ft. Worth airport and arrive in St. Petersburg, where they will stay three days. A passenger boat will be docked at St. Petersburg and will serve as a hotel for the group. The tour will continue along the Volga River. The group will make eight different stops visiting such places as Uglich, Irma, Goritsy-Kirillow,
Kizhi Island, Lakes Onega and Ladoga. The last three days of the tour will be spent in Moscow, said VanOsdol. The cost of the trip is $2,167 and includes round trip airline fare, meals, tours and transfers. VanOsdol suggested that some participants might carpool from the Oklahoma City area to the departure destination of Dallas to save money.
VanOsdol has sponsored the Summer Tour trips for the past 16 years. The trips are open to the public. UCO students who participate may receive credit hours through the International Studies Program. Trips taken in the past include Paris, London, Greece and eastern Europe. VanOsdol said that it is not a problem to travel in Russia at this time. An acquaintance of his,

'Wild Bunch' gets kicking By Joy McNutt
Student Writer The members of University of Central Oklahoma's Wild Bunch Karate team will converge at 10:30 a.m. Mar. 27 at Oklahoma State University' s Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater, for a championship tournament. The tournaments are fun and challenging, said Bob McCoy, UCO Wild Bunch's newest black belt. The Wild Bunch is a nickname adopted by the Kinney Karate Association in reference to the Sam Peckinpah western movie, "The Wild Bunch," explained Timothy D. Nagode, fourth-degree black belt and head karate instructor for UCO. The karate club at UCO is a part of the Kinney Karate Association, he said. The association is a group of martial artists who studied under Bob Kinney, and includes any karate teams taught by his black belts, Nagode explained. There are about 100 black belts in eight or nine states in the nonprofit association, he said, adding
that they have no grand master and no militaristic heirarchy. KKA rules differ somewhat from those of the World Tae Kwon Do Association, which is seen in the Olympics, in that it is more like street fighting, making it more useful for practical self-defense, said Bret Bryan, black belt and assistant karate instructor. For example, he explained that in World Tae Kwon Do, punches to the head and grappling are not legal. However, KKA allows grappling, which is grabbing the arm or gi, he said. Also, he said a punch to the head is legal, but not a pucnh to the face, except in brown or black belt divisions. Sweeping the feet out from under the opponent is a legal technique, and the groin is a legal target area, he said. UCO's karate club began ten years ago when Bob Kinney, then a fourth-degree black belt, and Tim Nagode, a black belt since 1980, started karate instruction at Central State University with 14 students, Nagode said. In 1983 and 1984 the karate
club won the National Circuit Championship for the KKA, a competition involving 1000-1200 competitors, he said. In 1986 the club started a series of workshops sanctioned by CSU and in 1987 the first academic class was offered, said Nagode. You don't have to take the academic class to join the club, he said, just come. The karate club meets from 7-9 p.m. Mon., Wed. and Fri. in Broncho Corral, Room 204 in the Health and Physical Education Building. Members receive both group and individual instruction, Nagode said. KKA instructors teach karate because they love it, Bryan said, not for pay as they do in commercial clubs. Also the training is longer and more thorough for advancement, he said, explaining that you can't just go buy a new belt. In July, members will have the opportunity to attend a summer camp held at Lake Carl Blackwell near Stillwater, Nagode said. There they will workout and socialize with acclaimed martial artists from all over the United States.
Police lost and found bursting
By Heide Brandes
Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma' s Lost and Found is overflowing and unless items are claimed soon, the found items will be auctioned off, said UCO Police Officer Joe Perry. "We just don't have any room," said Perry. "All this stuff belongs to students at UCO." When an item is turned into the lost and found, a report is written and the item is placed into a prop-
erty locker. In order to claim an item, the person must go to the UCO police department. "All they have to do is come in and describe it and sign the property tag and it's theirs," said Perry. Some of the items in the lost and found include watches, 13 tenspeed bicycles, diamond rings, an acoustic guitar and an electric bass guitar. "Just before the last day before spring break, we got an $800 hear-
ing aid," said Perry. The strangest thing ever turned into the lost and found was a vibrating sexual device, said UCO police. Since the lost and found is so full, the only option is to hold a sheriff's auction, said Perry. "We get a court order to have a sheriff's sale to sell it," said Perry. "The biggest problem is people won't come claim this stuff." For more information, contact the UCO police department at 3412980 Ext. 2345.

Correspondence courses aid students in graduation By Bill Hamilton Staff Writer
Students at the University of Central Oklahoma that are thinking about graduating early, or need to make up a class might want to consider correspondence studies. The correspondence studies pro-
gram works by the process of home assignments, and tests taken in the testing center, said John Malone, coordinator for correspondence studies. The correspondence courses are available to any student admitted into UCO, and the work is applied to undergraduate credit, accord-
ing to the correspondence studies information packet. "There are approximately 1,100 students enrolled in the correspondence studies program," said D. Taylor, supervisor for correspondence studies. Students enrolling in the classes should be aware of the maximum
enrollment limits of 20 hours in the fall and spring semesters and 10 hours in summer semester, she said. "It is not recommended that a student takes more than six correspondence hours at a time," said Taylor. "The time it takes to complete a
correspondence studies courses varies with the course and the amount of students enrolled in the class," said Taylor. "On the average it takes 6 months," she said. The cost of a course is $45 per credit hour plus the cost of books and supplies.
UCO police continue investigation in March burglary By Heide Brandes Staff Writer
The University of Central Oklahoma police department continues an investigation into the March 12 burglary of Old North, said UCO Police Lt. Hayes Forbes. On March 12, $4000 worth of audio-visual equipment was taken from Room 309 in Old North sometime in the evening, said Forbes. Though the locks had recently been changed, Forbes said there was no apparent forced entry. "We don' t think it was opened with a key," he said. "There was a class that night. Whoever was in the room last may not have secured the door." The following morning, Kenneth Keeth, media technician at Old North, reported the incident to the campus police. "We've got several suspects," said Forbes. "This is an ongoing investigation. We have several pieces of evidence from the crime scene to be examined." "We haven't had any (burglaries) in quite a while," said Forbes. Anyone with information can contact the UCO police department at 341-2980 Ext. 2345.

What do Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth all have in common? Answer: Many people perceive all three to be myths (symbolic in nature and meaning but of little or no historical significance), however this perception is only two-thirds correct. The resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth is one of the best attested historical events of antiquity. Here on campus there are many who share the joy of knowing that Jesus Christ provides intellectually and spiritually satisfying answers to life's most important questions. We sincerely invite your questions.

Mother Nature can't deter UCO Relays Records fall despite rainy weather By Justin Harper
Sports Editor Despite the threat of thundershowers and unseasonably cold temperatures on Saturday, the Central Oklahoma Relays went on as planned. Several meet records were broken even though participants were confronted with a fierce southern breeze when coming down the stretch. The meet, featuring seven colleges and about 30 high schools, got things running on Friday and continued on Saturday. Among the meet record breaking performances was UCO's Stephanie Collins, who won the 400 dash with a time of 1:04. Other meet records were established in the men's 1500, the women's 1500 and the women's 3200 relay. The Bronchos and Lady Bronchos had several runners place high in the meet.

Entertainer to be featured in free concert By Susan Wright Guest Writer You never really know what to expect at a Scott Jones show so University of Central Oklahoma students may be surprised when the musician/comedian performs at 7 p.m. April 20 in the Will Rogers Room of the University Center. The event, sponsored by the UCO Student Programming Board, is free and open to the public.
Jones' show is described as an evening of entertainment and surprises. He plays serious music, says funny things and shows strange pictures.

Bank offers scholarship; $2000 for internationals Joanne Wong Student Writer The First National Bank of Edmond has presented the University of Central Oklahoma International Office with a $2,000 scholarship for an international student. The scholarship is part of First National Bank's 1993 Centennial activity. The scholarship is designated for an international student who has completed at least one semester at UCO. The criteria includes both grades and contribution to campus life. The scholarship can provide
$1,000 toward tuition and fees for two semesters. "This is the first time an Edmond business has offered a scholarship for an international student," said Dr. Ronald Paddack, director of the UCO international office. "First National Bank has always been a major contributor to International Week., so I was not surprised when they offered this generous scholarship." The deadline for application is July 1, and the application can be picked up at the International Office, Room 210G, Administration Building. For more information contact Paddack at Ext. 2390.

Psychology class to focus on new aspects By Terri King Student Writer
A new aspect of the study of psychology will be the subject of a course being offered this summer at the University of Central Oklahoma. "Evolutionary Psychology: Implications for Narrative Therapy," will be taught as a seminar class by Dr. Michael Knight, professor and chair of psychology and personnel services. "Evolutionary psychology looks at brain function. It asks, `what was the brain designed to do?' It asserts that cognitive mechanisms evolved. Behavior does not evolve, the brain evolves and behavior is what you do," said Knight. Knight said that evolutionary psychology is the latest stage in a series of trends in psychology which have included behaviorism and cognitive psychology. Evolutionary psychology seeks to separate what behaviors are strickly cultural in human societies.
"What we want to understand is what kind of things are common across cultures, such as honesty. Every culture throughout history values honesty. So, anthropologically, we are able to say that is something that is a part of our brain programming. Every culture did not accidentally all invent it," Knight said. These common behaviors are what psychologists are determining are what the brain is designed to do. "One of the things that is starting to emerge is that humans are very much designed as social creatures. Our brains were desiged to function in a social context," Knight said. Knight explained that another prime function of the human brain is narration. The brain makes stories out of events in order to give things meaning and to make sense of experiences. The course is being offered this summer and may be offered again in the future if there is positive student response, Knight said.

UCO to host high school arts festival
WORLD WRAP continued from page 1
Students retrace Underground Railroad MALDEN, W.Va. (AP) — Inner-city students following the route of the old Underground Railroad say their journey through the past has brought history to life in a way no textbook could match. "Sometimes words don't explain it all. Sometimes you have to see things," Barry Cain, 10, said Monday during a stop in this tiny village, birthplace of black educator Booker T. Washington. Barry and 27 other fifth-graders from Boston's Sumner Elementary School have spent the past week sleeping on floors and absorbing the story of slavery, segregation and the Civil War. The Underground Railroad was a series of safe havens where fleeing slaves stayed during the mid-1800s on their trip north. The students began retracing the path March 27 in Washington, where the "Vigilance Committee" that ran the underground railroad worked. From there they headed to South Carolina and followed the trail through North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia.

The University of Central Oklahoma's Art Department will host the High School Arts Festival from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. April 15 at the University Center and the Art Building. Artwork from high school students from 33 schools throughout the state will be judged and displayed. The art will include painting and graphics, drawing, sculpture, jewelry, and print making. The students will also be attending demonstrations on the different art forms. "The festival will allow students to exhibit their own work, as well as view those of other students. They will also see the school and the art department and hopefully want to come back," said Dr. William L. Hommel, chairman of UCO Visual Art & Design. The artwork can be viewed by the public between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. For more information, call Hommel at Ext. 5202.
Dallas officials seek solution to yearly melee DALLAS (AP) — Commerce Street would be a quieter, drier place the weekend of the Texas-Oklahoma football game under a plan under consideration by the Dallas City Council. "We need to refocus Texas-OU into a Texas-OU for the '90s — which is a celebration and a football game. We need to move away from the street melee. That doesn' t eliminate Texas-OU, it makes it stronger," Mayor Steve Bartlett said. The plan, which includes keeping several traffic lights green, barricading sidewalks and changing a public drinking law to make arrests easier, may not be implemented for a couple of years, said assistant city manager A.C. Gonzalez. Also, Commerce Street sidewalks would be barricaded to prevent congregations of people. Only people entering or exiting businesses on the street will be allowed on the sidewalks.
Health care reform important, poll shows NEW YORK (AP) — Most Americans consider health care reform as urgent an issue as the federal deficit and have high expectations for President Clinton's promised health-care reform plan, according to a New York Times-CBS News Poll. The poll, results of which were published in Tuesday's Times, also showed that Americans would accept more government invovement in the nation's health-care system if it resulted in cost controls and coverage for everyone. A task force headed by first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton is expected to unveil a national health care proposal next month.

Collection details settler's life story By Michele Soh Staff Writer
A special display Afri can A merican Contribution to Oklahoma tells the story of an '89er family, the Gowers. The collection is on display until the end of the month at the University of Central Oklahoma Archives in Evans Hall. In the land run of 1889, John Gower staked his claim to 160 acres of land. At that time, restrictions existed for the burial of blacks, so Gower donated one acre of his land to become a cemetery where all people, regardless of race, could be buried, said Marilyn Bachus, library technician at the Archives.
Today, the Gower Memorial Cemetery stands restored in the far northeast corner of Edmond, recorded in the National Register of Historical Places. Only five sites in Edmond are on the register, said Bachus. The cemetery is historically significant as it was established by '89ers more than 100 years ago. It holds the graves of early settlers and military persons who served in the Spanish American War, both World wars, Korean War and the Vietnam War.
On display are age-old photographs of the cemetery, and the cemetery as it looks today, a plat map of the claims distribution and the Land Office Homestead Certification of Gower's land. The restoration was carried out by Myrtle Gower Thomas, granddaughter of John and Ophelia Gower. Photographs and books about other African-American contributors to Oklahoma history are also on display.
