UCOSA Senate passes 24/7 tobacco ban Nelson Solomon (o-Floor

With the bang of a gavel, the UCO Student Association Senate passed a resolution that puts the university on the path to becoming tobacco free. The resolution, which passed by a majority vote of 45 to 37, called for making the campus entirely tobacco free. The resolution bands cigarettes, cigars, pipe tobacco, snuff, spit tobacco, as well as herbal tobacco products. The legislation applies to employees (full-time, parttime or temporary), faculty (tenured and adjunct) and employee (staff and contract) and visitors, volunteers, guests and spectators, according to the resolution. "This is an auspicious day for UCO. We are taking a step forward, we are being leaders for health and our conference and in our state and city," Senator Robin Chipman, a community health major and an author of the bill, said. "I feel proud to be a part of UCOSA today." Senator Dayid Jenkins proposed an amendment that would ban only smoking tobacco and allow any other Itind, but it failed by a 45 - 22 vote. He congratulated the authors of the bill, but expressed his disappointment with the ban on smokeless tobacco. "I think the chewing tobacco ban is stepping over the bounds a little bit, but

I'm definitely glad the smoking ban is there," he said. Jenkins argued that nonsmoking tobacco only affects the health of the user and likely wouldn't bother students and visitors to the campus. He also pointed out during the session that if the Department of Public Safety and the administration doesn't enforce the passed resolution, then all the work of the senators is to no avail. Daniel Stockton, President Pro Tempore of the Senate and 2009-2010 Student Body President, expressed his appreciation to all the senators involved in writing the legislation. "Credit is due to the senators that wrote this piece of legislation. It's vital, that's what it takes to have a student government that works effectively, student activists that put the time into writing legislation and to doing the groundwork," Stockton said. He said the resolution was a goal of the administration. "It was a close vote, it was well argued, and I know that there will be action from the House of Representatives, but for now, this is the bill that stands, and this will be the legislation that moves on to be signed by President John Bobb-Semple," he said. Constitutionally, BobbSemple has to sign the bill by next week, Stockton said. He will either sign it or veto it back to the Senate. "From there, it will be taken under consideration

Reflections of a student president Caleb McWilliams (o

To exiting UCOSA president John Bobb-Semple, leadership is not doing things yourself, but in identifying people's strengths and finding the best place for them to be. "It was a goal of mine to be able to use the knowledge, tools and wisdom of all the people I was leading in UCOSA and leading them was something I learned hoW to do," said Bobb-Semple.

Flames leap out of a broken gas line in.Midwest City, Okla., Thursday, April 9, 2009. Fire crews in Oklahoma and Texas raced Thursday to control windwhipped wildfires that destroyed dozens of homes, forced evacuations and shut down parts of a major highway.

Residents rely on faith Associated Press

MIDWEST CITY, Okla. - They were displaced by a fire that destroyed the home they were living in, but Joshua Vineyard and Christina Henson made it to church on Easter Sunday. "Our faith is all we have right now," said Henson, who along with Vineyard spent Thursday and Friday nights in a hotel and slept in their car at a truck stop Saturday night. They joined the congregation at First Christian Church to hear the Rev. Leslie Brown's Easter sermon. The church building was spared a firestorm that scorched numerous homes and structures within a half-mile. "God didn't bring the fire, but he was there to help us search through the ashes of life," Brown said. He asked congregation members to pray foi those who were affected by the fire, including Vineyard and Henson. Henson and -Vineyard had moved from Corning, Calif., three weeks ago and were staying with friends at a home in Choctaw while they searched for a house of their own.

Emergency workers evacuated them from the home Thursday as the fire approached the area. "We just grabbed some clothes and hygiene products when they were evacuating everybody, and that's what we have in our car," Vineyard said. "Everything else is gone."

When they returned; only a brick wall was standing and most of their belongings were gone, Henson said. They will have to wait to get paychecks from their new jobs and receive their income tax refunds before they can afford to find a place to live and replace the items lost in the fire. "I know it'll be all right," said Vineyard, who along with Henson have no family to turn to. "We're just surviving until the money comes in. It's a roadblock. It's something you have to get around, but we'll get around it somehow." Rain and thunderstorms helped douse lingering wildfires and suppress any new ones from developing on Sunday. Showers and thunderstorms helped exhausted firefighters extinguish blazes that flared in Oklahoma, Carter and Stephens counties on Saturday, officials said. "We had crews out for about four hours Saturday, but we've gotten well over an inch of rain and that's helped us immensely," said Jerry Lojka, fire marshal for hard-hit Midwest City. "Anything left smoldering last night was taken care of and there have been no new fires." In nearby Oklahoma City, firefighters worked on hotspots from a fire in thicket east of Lake Stanley Draper into early Sunday, a dispatcher said. No structures were burned and no injuries were reported. In Stephens County, where fires flared near Loco, Marlow, Duncan and Velma on Saturday, all was quiet a day later, officials said. "They are all out. Thank God," said senior sheriffs dispatcher Brandon Johnson.

President Roger Webb will receive the legislation and the amendments that were passed with the campus-wide vote last week for final approval after Bobb-Semple signs the documents. The first six months of enforcing the policy will be voluntary, and will be a transition time, the resolution said. During the second six months of this policy, examples of enforcement will be a $15 fine or spending two hours of tobacco refuse clean up on campus.

In the resolution, UCOSA recommends training sessions for students involved in organizations such as Greek Life, DPS, Employment ServiceS, resident assistants, Prospective Student Services and other groups that the policy may affect. "A year from today, April 13, 2010, we will officially be a tobacco-free campus," he said. Action is pending by the House of Representatives.

Lawton baby survives 3-year hospital stay LAWTON, Okla. (AP) — After spending 3 1/2 years in hospitals, a girl who was delivered after only 24 weeks of pregnancy has finally come home to live with her family in Lawton. Angelina Parker was in a neonatal intensive care unit at Integris Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City for her first six months. She lived the next three years at The Children's Center in Bethany, a rehabilitation hospital where she learned to breathe on her own and to walk. The child came home Thursday. "Yesterday was the best day of my life," Angelina'smother, Erin Francisco, said Friday. She has learned that her daughter may never be able to talk.

The reason, according Children's Center nurse practitioner Julie HaleLangmacher, is that persistent use of a breathing tube during Angelina's first six months paralyzed her vocal cords. The girl uses a small computerized machine to speak for her. It's similar to the type of device physicist Stephen Hawking began using after losing his ability to speak to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Angelina's speech therapist, Heather Jarvis, said the girl adapted well to the device. "It took me three months to learn to use the device," Jarvis said. "It took her just a third that time." The device is composed of 72 screens, each with a separate set of words.

One of those sets of words contained the names of her doctors, nurses and fellow patients at The Children's Center. Francisco said her daughter spent much of Thursday crying over the loss of the friends she had made in Bethany, especially her best friend, Tory. But she is also getting better acquainted with her siblings, 4-year-old sister Genina Parker and 2-yearold brother Michael Parker. On Friday she spent much of her time placidly observing her siblings as they played boisterously and negotiating custody of various toys. "Her big sister really loves and protects Angelina," Francisco said. "But Michael is not used to not getting as much attention."

He said she had moved in with her grandparents in Tracy about a year ago. "They opened their home up to her to try to get her life back on track. I think a lot of families have problems like that," Hughes said. Huckaby was scheduled to appear in court on April 17 to check in with a county mental health program as part of a three-year probation sentence for a petty theft charge to which she pleaded no contest. Huckaby grew up in Orange County and was a "pretty normal kid," her uncle said. As the eldest of nine grandchildren, she played "mother hen" to the younger children at holiday gatherings. After graduating from high school, Huckaby's path appears to have become rockier. She married, had her daughter and was divorced. She had difficulty finding and keeping a job, partly because of the challenges of single motherhood, Hughes said. Sandra's uncle, Joe Chavez, said he found it difficult to contain his rage toward Huckaby's "I want to go over there and beat the crap out of those people, but I'm not going to do that," he said as he stood at the entrance to the mobile home park where the little girl lived with her mother. "I just want to vent my anger but it's not in me."

UCO football players to watch in 2009 Chris Wescott .Sports II rifer

As spring ball rolls on in Edmond, UCO will be weeding out which players they will keep, who will make the team, the depth chart for next season and impact freshman and transfers will be determined. Not including the haul of this year's recruiting class, the Bronchos will return several players who will be player to watch this season. Some of the best are seniors. At the top of the list is Brandon Noohi. The Broncho starting quarterback is listed at 5-11205 pounds and is entering his senior year at UCO. Noohi led the Bronchos in all passing categories last year after transferring from LSC rivals, SOSU. Noohi threw 316 pass, connecting on 172 of them (54.4 %) for 1,990 yards in 11 games. The quarterback had 11 touchdowns and only 3 interceptions for 116.92 efficiency rating. Noohi also showed his rushing prowess and athletic ability, having finished third on the team in rushing. Noohi rushed 86 times for 344 yards and 8 touchdowns. Noohi will definitely be the top player to watch as he enters this season fixed in the starting spot. With Ryan Gallimore having been out at the start of spring ball, Noohi has been working with the other receiving corps. Gallimore led the Bronchos in receiving last season with 51 receptions, 617 yards and 7 touchdowns, averaging 56.1 yards per game. When he returns to loo %, he will be a key player for the Broncho's fast paced offense. Kendall Hendricks will be someone to watch as the wide receiver enters his senior year. Hendricks was second on the team in receiving with 28 catches, 405 yards and 3 touchdowns and a 14.5 yards per catch average. Terrence Hill and Terry Hardeman return on the defensive side of the ball as the most productive linebackers last season. Hill, in 11 games, had 89 tackles, with 5.5 being for a loss. Hill added in 1 interception, 1 pass breakup and fumble recovery with i forced fumble. Hardeman is the other senior linebacker who returns and will be a player to watch. Hardeman had, in only to games, 82 tackles, 9.5 tackles for a loss, 1.5 sacks, 2 interceptions, 5 pass breakups, 1 QB hurry and 4 fumble recoveries with two being forced. These seniors, and several others, including the major recruiting haul the Bronchos brought in, could return UCO to the playoffs after missing them by such a small margin last year. The Bronchos end their spring practices with a scrimmage at 6 p.m on April 18th.

Aubrey Donovan and Lacy Caldwell were defeated by Tompkins and DelBosque of SEU. In the two position match, Julia Shviadok and Elizabeta Abramovic fell to Bain and Jacobi of SEU. The third game was credited to SEU by default. The singles matches went much the same way. In the number one spot, Tompkins defeated UCO's Aubrey Donovan in scores of 6-3 and 6-4. In the two spot, Bosque of SEU beat Shvidok of the Bronchos in two matches by scores of 6-o and 6-1.

started since his freshman year. In his freshman year, Shrum placed in the top ten three times, and had a 73.6 score average in 25 rounds. In his sophomore campaign, Shrum improved his average to 72.2. He also reached six top ten averages, doubling his achievements from freshman year. He won two tournaments, including the UCO/Kickingbird Classic in Edmond. He tied for i4th in the Lone Star Conference Tournament and 18th in the NCAA Division II Regional. His junior year has started off in much the same fashion. Shrum, in the fall, had a 72.1 scoring average. Shrum finished this past fall with four-over- ar through 13 rounds.

He placed top ten for all five of his tournaments in the fall as well and has been a key building block in UCO's current success. As of this past week, Shrum is ranked 2nd nationally in NCAA Division II for par five scoring with a 4.51 average. His average has helped the UCO team rank 2 ❑ d in the nation for par five scoring. In subpar strokes per round, Shrum is 4th in the nation with 4.39. Once again, the Bronchos rank in the top five where Shrum does, being 3rd nationally for subpar strokes per round. The Bronchos, as a team have made the best of this season so far. Since September the golf team has had five first place finishes,

two second place finishes, one third place and one eighth. The team won the Division II preview, the Cameron/Territory Classic, the Newman Invitational, the Crawford/Wade Invitational and the UCO/Kickingbird Classic. In the first place finishes, Shrum has a scoring average of 70.3, his best since high school. The Broncho is not alone in making the Bronchos one of the best of Division II Golf.
