Child study center to offer summer program Japan fights recession with stimulus package

By Dawn Tyler Student Writer

TOKYO (AP) — Under rising pressure to jolt its economy out of the doldrums and trim its trade surplus, Japan today announced its biggest economic stimulus package.

In his meeting with President Clinton later this week, Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa will no doubt point to the measures— totaling $117 billion — as evidence he is doing all he can to fight Japan's worst recession in two decades.

Miyazawa's package is about seven times the size of the $16 billion economic plan Clinton is fighting to get through Congress.

Document reveals Vietnam held more POWs than reported HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — Vietnamese officials this week denounced as a "fabrication" a document that allegedly shows North Vietnam held hundreds more American prisoners of war in 1972 than it admitted at the time.

The formerly secret document found recently in Soviet Communist Party archives in Moscow — if authentic — indicates North Vietnam held 1,205 American POWS that year -- 837 more than it acknowledged to the United States.

Seminar to focus on student loans

University of Central Oklahoma's Child Study Center will offer a two-session summer program for children this June and July.

"We are gearing this program specifically toward children whose parents are either students, faculty, or staff at UCO, but it is also open to the general public," said Sue McCauley, director of the Child Study Center. The program is designed to suit the needs of students and staff by operating Monday through Friday from 8 a.m.-12 noon.

The program will include field trips and planned activities for the children. UCO education students will help run the program and receive practicum credit for their involvement.

The program will be offered in two sessions: session I from June 7-July 2, and session II from July 6-July 30. Parents may enroll their children in either session or both sessions, and also have a three or five day option. Cost per month is $125 for the five-thy option and $75 for the three-day option.

Age restrictions for the summer program require that the youngest children in the program are three years old by March 1, 1993 and the oldest are pre-kindergarten age.

Enrollment is limited to 20 spaces, therefore early enrollment is encouraged and is available right now. To enroll children or for more information about the program contact Sue McCauley at Ext 5788.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Three people who work in the White House were born in a place called Hope: the president, the chief of staff and 19year-old Chad Griffin.

Griffin is the youngest of a very young White House staff, in which dozens of people are 20-something, and people in their 40s at times seem like elder statesmen.

According to Deputy Press Secretary Lorraine Voles, 63 people in the White House staff of about 450 are 24 and under. Even the 46-year-old president has noticed.

"I've got a Cabinet that looks like America and a staff that looks like a Head Start program," Clinton quipped at the annual Gridiron dinner, after Republican Sen. Bob Dole said of the White House staff: "Chelsea's got to have someone to play with."

L.A. police send mixed messages; some hear violence, not assurance

►41,44T ABOUT FeaDOM OF 6PEICia

As Americans sit glued to their television sets contemplating the verdict in the Rodney King case, the city of Los Angeles waits nervously wondering if the verdict, and possibly even the meddling media, will bring about another riot.

Monday Los Angeles Police Chief Willie Williams organized an impressive display of law enforcement puissance. With the media close at hand, officers were shown training; using the hippest riot-control techiniques nonetheless.

Officials also flaunted their well-thought-out contingency plans for worst-case scenarios.

The vast array of power and strength certainly helped some frightened residents feel at ease. Others, however, were angered. All the brawn, some say, predicts violence from both communities and officers themselves. In a recent Los Angeles Times pole, 50 percent said police overreaction would ignite violence.

Commerce Secretary Ron Brown said an emergency advisory team formed by the president and headed by himself, definitely has plans of action in case violence follows the impending verdict.

"There's a delicate balance--you don't want to overdo it," Brown said. "By the same token, the citizenry has to be made to feel secure."

But has the media helped officials cross the line between protection and menace?

All of the hype and preparedness comes close to betraying the communities' efforts to keep volatile neighborhoods calm and peaceful. Such exaggerated displays of power reassure some residents, yet intimidate others. Williams is right when he says he needs to be prepared for the worst.

But when the officers focus so heavily on the threat of violence, and the media magnifies these exaggerations, it only sends a message of distrust to communities struggling to find peace amidst confusion.

The Los Angeles police officials, who already have a record of blunt-force policing, have gone to far. And the media has followed right behind them.

Campus needs landscaping, student says I am an international student from Taiwan. I have been reading The Vista since I came here. The Vista is very interesting to me. It gives me some information about what happens on the campus. It also is a bridge for students to communicate with the administration of the University of Central Oklahoma.

I have an opinion that I want to suggest to the administration about

campus beautification. When I came to the University, the first expression to me of the campus was very boring and strange. There are just roads and buildings, but no trees, flowers, streams and gardens. In my opinion, a university campus should have beautiful landscapes to attract students. For example, sometimes the class is very busy with a lot of exams and

homework. We try to find some places to relax, but it is really hard to search. In my opinion, the campus views can increase our learning interest.

Finally, I hope our administration can pay more attention to improve our campus beautification. It is not too late to do that.

Library needs more copiers As a student of UCO, I have to do research papers for certain courses and need a lot of information from the periodicals on the third floor of the library. As we know, a lot of information is on the microfilm instead of in the magazines. So, I need to read the articles from microfilm machines.

Reading the articles from microfilm machines is not a problem for me, but the problem is to copy the articles from the microfilm.

There are only four microfilm copy machines available for around 15,000 students in UCO. Most of the time, I have to wait about 30 minutes to an hour just to copy

some articles from the microfilm.

Looking at the increasing number of students who use microfilm copy machines. I hope that UCO will take action to provide more microfilm copy machines. Thank you for the attention.

Editors note: As part of a class assignment in Mary Spelman's English class, students were asked to write a letter to The Vista on any issue that they feel is important. The Vista appreciates their effort and looks forward to more letters.

Reader comments on donating plasma In response to an article on "Make money, donate plasma" in the March 30 edition of The Vista, I would like to make a few comments.

First of all, although it might seem attractive that by donating one's plasma twice a week one can make around $136 a month, has it ever occurred to the writer that the amount of blood lost by these frequent donations may affect one's health?

Medically, a person is encouraged to donate his/her blood only once every three months. Physiologically, it has bad effects. The risk of getting hypovolumaenia and anemia for a donor who donates blood twice a week for the whole month is very high.

Ethically, "selling" one's blood is questionable. Rather than encouraging people to donate part of their blood to earn a little extra spending money, people should instead be encouraged to donate blood for a good cause. Even if monetary incentive is involved, it shouldn't be so bluntly put forward.

And finally, after donating that much blood, I think the donor would need to spend a large portion of his/her money on vitamin and iron supplements to restore what is lost. After all, what is money without good health!

UCO student

Paper needs more vision I have rarely missed your twice-weekly edition of The Vista, since I enrolled as a student of UCO. The efforts taken by the editorial board to publish The Vista is of great importance to the students and should be appreciated by all parties.

However, it cannot avoid making flaws such as including low quality articles.

Some articles included were so childish that even an elementary school pupil could do better!

Since UCO is rich with international students who come from various cultural backgrounds, their knowledge and experience should be taken as an asset to The Vista as a source of information. The information collected can be of use to local students who are not aware of the existence of other nations.

Student wants more space for sports activities In the April 1, 1993 edition of The Vista, the State Regents' for Higher Education gave its approval for the University of Central Oklahoma to proceed with the master plan. This is great news.

As a student of UCO, I am proud that UCO will expand the library, multi-purpose classroom building, a complete renovation of Howell Hall, campus parking, landscaping, lighting and campus security improvements, a 164-seat business building lecture hall, the scene shop, expansion of Communication Building, and lastly renovation of the industrial arts building. How about the Broncho Field house and Wantland Hall?

Asa student of UCO, I'd like to do a lot of sports exercise such as badminton, basketball, weight training, swimming, tennis and table tennis. I am sure that every sportsman and student in UCO found that the facility and times are not enough and not suitable.

I believe each and every student at UCO will agree with me.

In Wantland Hall, the places are limited and too small for the students to play basketball and badminton together; the students have to share the places, and they have to wait for other people to finish

their game in order for them to play.

Furthermore, the times to do the sports activities are not suitable and convenient. According to the schedule, Broncho Field House and Wantland Hall will open 2-5 p.m. weekdays and closed on Saturday and Sunday.

Most students, including me, would like to do the sports activities on Saturday and Sunday because this is the most suitable and convenient time. The reason is we don't have classes on Saturday and Sunday.

Through this, I'd like to give my suggestions on behalf of the UCO students to ask for opening the Broncho Field House and Wantland Hall during Saturday and Sunday, and please include those two buildings in the master plan for expansion and renovation in order to get more facilities for students and sportsmen. I hope that the administrative department would consider our plight. The international students like me would like to do the job as a helper in Broncho Field House and Wantland Hall during Saturday and Sunday. Thank you for the attention. —Jye-Shyan Lee UCO student --------

All international students are now required to file a statement of purpose with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), said Jalal Daneshfar of the University of Central Oklahoma International Office.

Daneshfar recently attended the

statewide conference of National Association for Foreign Student Affairs (NAFSA) where new information on filing federal taxes for international students was announced.

"Regulation concerning state taxes has not changed," Daneshfar said.

International students must file a statement of information, which

Aarron Montgomery, a sophomore pre-med major and president of MC, said that the purpose of the social was to get everyone working as a Greek system.

When referring to the Feb. 26 melee between several members

of the Sigma Tau Gamma and Kappa Sigma fraternities on campus, Montgomery explained that there has always been competition on campus between the Greek houses. However, the extent of this tension had not been realized, he said.

Because UCO's system is smaller compared to other universities Greek systems, the lever of competitiveness is higher, he added.

"More interaction as a Greek system will stop some of the segregation between the houses," said

in bad standing with the Immigra tion and Naturalization Service (IMS) meaning they have worked without permission off campus, missed a semester of school, or are not enrolled full-time, must also file a statement of information, he added.

Another change announced was that Indian students now can file

Montgomery The social will act as a meeting place where all the Greek organizations can come together and interact freely among themselves.

The members will be asked to not wear any Greek letters or any fraternity wear so that no one will be able to be distinguished by their house.

The supplies for the social will be provided by all the Greek organizations.

Anyone needing information can contact Aarron Montgomery on campus at Ext. 4433.

Spring day in the park scheduled The festival, scheduled from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the large pavilion, will provide interactive examples of easy inexpensive activities that parents can do for their young children, said Sherie Trice, child development specialist. Some of the activities included are art, stories, songs and games.

Barbara Perkins, as "Perkie the Clown," from Keep Edmond Beautiful, will read two stories to the children and talk to them about recycling, she said. Keep Edmond Beautiful is an organization of persons concerned with environmental education, Perkins said.

Student Writer

The April 16 "Spring Day in the Park" festival at Hafer Park in Edmond will give families with children 3-6 years old and their caregivers a chance to enjoy a day of free fun and learning.

The event, sponsored by the Edmond Child Guidance Clinic, is offered in celebration of the National Association for the Education of Young Children's "Week of the Young Child."

They do free puppet shows and games for children's groups to help them become environmentally conscious. Perkins said she will also give out free coloring books at the festival.

The Edmond Fire Department will show a 1929 fire engine and will probably lead the children in a safety and seatbelt musical chairs game as they did last year, said Teresa Baird, clinical psychologist and director of ECGC. Also a D.A.R.E. officer from the Edmond Police Department will give out stickers at the event, she said.

Families may picnic on their

own, and McDonalds will provide juice, cups and ice, she said.

The ECGC is a part of the Oklahoma State Department of Health.

The purpose of ECGC is prevention of childhood problems through parent education and screening of children ages 0-12 years for problems in development, speech, hearing, language, social, emotional and behavioral skills so they can be addressed, Baird said.

Professionals in child development, psychology, social work, speech-language pathology, audiology and recreational therapy

provide the services.

ECGC provides referral to appropriate agencies if help is needed, Baird said.

The ECGC also works with the WIC office to help women who are pregnant or have children under five years old provide good nutrition for their children, she said.

For information regarding the festival or the services call the ECGC at 341-6120. For information about Keep Edmond Beautiful call 348-4037.

The rain date for the festival is April 23.

WORLD WRAP continued from page 1

Netherlands tackles welfare woes AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) — After decades of a generous welfare system that cares for the old, sick, jobless and, some say, the lazy, even its supporters realize something has gone wrong.

Last year, for every 100 people who were working, another 86.5 received some form of benefit. That was double the number of 20 years ago.

This year, the government finally tackled the most notorious cash-eater, the $12.2 billion-a-year Unsuitability for Work Act, known as WAO by its initials.

LSD use up among high school-age kids DETROIT (AP) — While anti-thug campaigns focus on cocaine, LSD use among high school seniors is at its highest level in seven years, and more teen-agers are sniffing glue and other volatile substances, says a study released this week.

Among seniors, 5.6 percent admitted using LSD in the past year, up from 5.2 percent in 1991. Use of LSD, widely associated with the '60s, had dropped among seniors from 7.2 percent in 1975 — the first year for the survey — to 4.4 percent in 1985.

About 17,000 seniors in 135 public and private schools nationwide filled out questionnaires in their classrooms for the study, as did about 18,000 eighth-graders in 160 schools and about 15,000 10th-graders in 125 schools.

U.S. troops may provide Haiti aid WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. troops could be sent to Haiti to provide humanitarian aid once democracy is restored to the Caribbean nation wracked by political and economic turmoil, Pentagon officials say.

The Pentagon has no intention of sending combat troops to Haiti but rather envisions a "nation-building" operation similar to the one in Panama after the U.S. ouster of dictator Manuel Noriega in December 1989.

Special Olympics seek volunteers

By Steve Sager Student Writer The Oklahoma Special Olympics State Summer Games needs volunteers. The event will be held May 12-14 on the campus of Oklahoma State University in Stillwater.

Approximatelly 4,000 athletes are expected to participate in the event.

Competitions will include track and field events, bowling, aquatics, motor activities, powerlifting,

and Unified softball.

Also during the event, several different educational and entertainment oppurtunities will be provided in the Olympic Village for the athletes, coaches, family members and volunteers.

Sherry Bankhead volunteer/outreach coordinator for Oklahoma Special Olympics said, "volunteers from across Oklahoma come together each year to share in the joys of working with these Spe-

cial Olympians.

"More than 2,800 volunteers are needed for this year's Summer Games. A number of people have already signed up, but we still need many more to help."

Volunteers would be asked to serve as huggers, food and drink servers, timekeepers, registration volunteers and award presenters.

Anyone interested in volunteering can call the toll-free Volunteer Hotline at 1-800-585-1561.

Economists talk shop Jon Davis Student Writer

The University of Central Oklahoma Economic Department sponsored a workshop in applied and policy economics April 8 in the University Center's Seminole Room.

Practicing economists from Wilson Foods, Oklahoma Gas & Electric, the Federal Trade Commission and the Oklahoma Corporation Commission described their jobs and answered questions about their career paths.

"This workshop was sponsored by the UCO Department of Economics and the UCO Center for Urban Economic and Business Analysis," said Dr. Jean Caldwell, professor of economics. "The response was great. Because of the

interest shown from schools throughout the state, we plan on holding another workshop next year."

"The workshop was designed for students to learn more about the work that economists do and the kinds of problems they solve as well as provide them guidance on how to prepare to get the job they want," Caldwell said. "We had 64 students from eight different state colleges and universities attend."

"We feel it is important for our graduates to be trained not only in theory, but also applied economics, especially practical policy analysis that is used in business and government," she added.

Dr. Paula Smith, chairperson of UCO economics department, offered advice to students thinking

OFFICERS' TRAINING

about economics as a major and career.

"First of all, you have to like the subject. Then you have to see yourself actually doing this kind of work day in and day out. If you don't love what you do, change now before you get in too deep."

Todd Totten, East Central University senior majoring in business and economics, found the conference interesting and helpful.

"It was nice to bear people who are actually doing the job and see what they do everyday. I never knew there was so much emphasis placed on communication skills as economist. Now I'm going to work on my writing and speaking so I'll be ready for my first job," he said.

UCO students to study in Costa Rica

By Michele Soh Staff Writer

Visit a rain forest, swim at the base of an 180-foot waterfall, live at the foot of an active volcano, and wander through a clouded forest are summer plans for 11 University of Central Oklahoma students.

The group, led by two UCO professors from the biology department, will leave May 8 for a two-week field trip to Costa Rica.

One of the professors, Dr. Clark Ovrebo, said this is the first time the two-credit hour workshop is being offered by UCO. The cost of the field trip is about 81,300.

"It is an introduction to tropical biology. We will study the natural history of Costa Rica, its ecology, animals, insects and plants," said Ovrebo, who specializes in fungi.

RESUMES InterView Training

SPECIAL STUDENT RATES

The students will only be in each place for a short time. They will keep a notebook and complete mini projects, said Ovrebo, who has visited Costa Rica six times.

"We will see house plants we are used to growing wild in Costa Rica. The vegetation, the animals and the many species of birds will be different," said Dr. Donna Zanowiak, who spent two months doing research in Costa Rica as a graduate student.

From beaches and waterfalls, to mountains and volcanoes, the field group's itinerary includes a visit to the Rara Avis Rain forest preserve, a virgin rain forest inhibited by more than 300 bird species and great diversity of animals and plants.

A view of the spectacle- Costa Rica's most active volcano, Volcano Arenal, where rumbling noises and occasional lava fountains may be seen.

A perpetual cover of dense low

clouds combine to give Monteverde its distinct clouded forest vegetation and wildlife.

Bathed in mist all year-round, the field study group will explore the cloud forest's lush growth of mosses, ferns and orchids.

"We caution students about Costa Rica' s humid weather, abundance of mosquitoes and maybe poisonous snakes," said Ovrebo.

And also spartan living arrangements, said Zanowiak.

Costa Rica is a good place to go

for a field trip because they have a democratic government with no political unrest and established research stations, said Zanowiak.

"It is the Switzerland of Latin America," said Ovrebo. At peace since 1949, Costa Rica has a stable democracy and maintains an official policy of neutrality.

Costa Rica is located in Central America, bordered by Nicaragua, Panama, the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea,•with a population of about 3.3 million.
