Phone messaging system to cost $191,000

By Linda Jones and Shannon Blockcolski Centel Business Systems has been awarded a $191,000 bid for a voice messaging center for CSU. "Although the bids were opened a month ago, we waited until the March Board of Regents meeting to recommend them," Dr. Larry Williams, vice president of adminstration, said. "Frankly, we were pleasantly surprised. This is a superior system to what we anticipated."

According to Williams, the low bid was made possible through the efforts of Centel and the makers of the system, Rolm Manufacturing of California.

"It will be financed through Auxiliary Enterprises," Williams said.

Students will be able to sign a separate contract with housing if they want to use the messaging system, Robert Fields, director of Auxiliary Enterprises, said.

"We don't know exactly how much it will cost. I estimate it will be $6 to $10 a month," Fields said.

The system, Williams said, will allow the voice messaging service to be expanded to both the dormitory and faculty office telephones.

An additional bid of $15,000 was awarded to Voice-Tech Inc. for a microprocessor-controlled automated attendant system to handle incoming calls. When installed, it will allow callers using digital telephones to dial an extension directly.

"The automated attendant will allow us to handle the increased volume of calls when the dormitory telephones come on line without adding additional operators," Williams said. "In addition, the attendant will permit single digit dialing, such as at enrollment time.

"We can program the automated attendant to direct the caller to high use areas, such as sectioning and the registrar's office, by dialing one digit."

Voice messaging is a service allowing each telephone to be programmed with a personal greeting when the user is unable to answer.

The caller may leave a message or ask to be connected with an operator for further help.

All calls are confidential,

Williams said, and may be accessed only with a personal code.

Once received, they may be erased or forwarded.

The phone messaging service is the latest component of a multiphase program that began with installation of the Rolm system in 1984. Telephones are currently being installed in all dormitory rooms, with completion expected before the beginning of the fall semester, Williams said.

Students with personal computers living in the dormitory also will have access to the university mainframe computers once the installation is complete.

Long distance service for students will be available through a personal access number. Billing of the service will be to the user's

number, not to the dormitory extension.

"We expect this to end many of the problems students have with telephone service, including high deposit and installation fees, and disagreements with roommates over long distance charges," Williams said.

"We plan to have the telephones and the complete system installed during the summer so that we can work the bugs out before the students move in for the fall term.

"We hope this modernization of the telephone system and additional, convenient access to the mainframe computers will further enhance dormitory living on the campus," Williams said.

Professors, students disagree on mid-term grade proposal

By Kathy Fletcher Student Writer A proposal passed by the Faculty Senate recommending midterm reports, beside D and F grades, be abolished has generated mixed opinions.

"I never pick up my mid-term grades for fear they will jinx me.

It's a superstition of mine," journalism major Pat Hammert said.

According to a Faculty Senate study, 85 percent of the students share Hammert's habit of not picking up mid-term grades.

Lynette Wert, creative studies instructor, said, "I am greatly in favor of the proposal in terms of paperwork. It is an immense amount of paperwork to process mid-terms."

Dr. Doug Allen, chairman of the Faculty Senate academic affairs committee, said, "We wanted to be fair and give these students accurate feedback con-

cerning their classroom performance."

Feedback is not enough, according to student Laura Hughes.

"If students are making D's and F's, they know it, so you are going to have to do more then that to alert them. Maybe mid-terms shouldn't be sent out at all."

Gene Hellstern, professor of history and geography, said although he doesn't mind preparing them, he feels mid-terms are not a true indication of grades, because often there has not been a second test given before midterms.

There are some who advocate no change, such as student Yvonna Hill, who said, "I think it is a waste of time to send only D's and F's, because most students know when they are flunking. If they are sent to the parents then they will think that the student is flunking everything."

Hank Mooney, journalism in-

structor, said he feels student opinion should be taken into account.

"Whatever students want is what we should do," Mooney said. "From the schools standpoint, mailing mid-term grades is costly. I don't think faculty members are considering this."

Allen, on the other hand, said the cost of processing all grades for students to pick up is more costly to the school then the current proposal.

"Only 15 percent of the students pick up grades," Allen said. "Justification of this costwise is not there.

"There are roughly 13,400 students at CSU. If we assume that five percent make a D or an F, which is, I am told, a conservative estimate. That would be 670 students. This adds up to less than $200 a semester."

The proposal is awaiting action on the administrative level.

Justices to celebrate law day on campus From Staff Reports Oklahoma Supreme Court Justices Marlan P. Opala and Hardy Summers will speak Wednesday in celebration of Law Day. Sponsored by the CSU Political Science Department and the Pre Law Club, Opala's speech will be held 8:40 a.m. in the Liberal Arts Auditorium, and Summers' talk

will follow at 9:50. A reception for the justices will be at 10:40 a.m. in the Faculty Reception Room, second floor of the Liberal Arts Building.

Opala has served on the Oklahoma Supreme Court since 1978, and has been Administrative Director of the State Courts and Supreme Court Commissioner. He is an adjunct pro-

fessor at the three state law schools and conducts lectures at national judicial and legal educational programs.

Summers is the newest member of the Oklahoma Supreme Court, appointed in 1985. He is a former District Court for the 15th Judicial District and was elected President of the Oklahoma Judicial Conference in 1984.

Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president of academic affairs

Waste not: reallocate $191,000

By Shannon Blockcolski

Editor With $191,000 being allocated to a new messaging system for the CSU phones, I decided to point out better, and less expensive, ways to spend the money.

Commentary

1. The candy and coke machines are always breaking down, eating money

or needing correct change. My suggestion is to replace the machines, and also place change machines in each of the campus buildings.

2. The temperature in the campus buildings ranges from 120 to minus 20 within two days. A new heating and cooling system could be installed in each building. Or, for a cheaper measure, one maintenance man could abandon sitting in his truck for five minutes to check the temperature in several buildings.

3. Several faculty members have to tell their students to buy copies of test sheets and dittos. Money could be given to the department heads to distribute to the professors so they can make copies for their students.

4. The furniture in the older residence halls, especially Murdaugh, is probably as old as the building itself.

Desks, chairs, beds and window blinds often break, and the showers in the bathrooms rarely work at full capacity.

The bathtubs are disgusting; covered with filth and grime. The furniture

could be replaced, the showers could be fixed and extra housekeepers could be hired.

5. The student labs on campus are out-of-date and often overcrowded.

The equipment in the labs could be updated, and staff positions could be added to oversee and help the students.

6. Last, but certainly not least, is the parking situation. Anything could be done to improve the current system, but I truly don't think the students, faculty and staff will ever stop cornplaining about the problem.

Budget problems hit financial aid

Grant cuts to hurt future students

By Pat Hammert

Student Writer There is a new phenomenon on college campuses these days: the lowincome student is seen less and less.

The percentage of students reporting family income of below $30,000 has dropped by almost half over the past six years. The shift in emphasis from financial aid in the form of grants toward increased federal loan subsidies may be leaving low- and middleincome students in the educational deep-freeze.

Dr. Larry Williams, CSU vice president of administration, said the scaling down of allocations for grants and the emphasis on loans will continue to be a growing trend. Indeed, federal spending on grants fell dramatically over the past 10 years while borrowing under the federal programs has in-

creased just as dramatically.

The Republican administration is seeking some $600 million to expand a new Income-Contingent Loan Program now being tested by 10 U. S. colleges in an experimental phase.

Editorial

The program does away with federally subsidized interest rates, while setting a cap of 15 percent. Borrowing limits increase to $50,000 and the payment period extended, contingent upon post-graduate income.

being closed off. The student whose paycheck has never been more than a minimum wage sees as terrifying the prospect of repaying a $30,000-$50,000 loan at a crippling interest rate of as high as 15 percent. Poor students are merely unwilling to burden themselves with a heavy debt.

Financial aid is a tremendous social equalizer, as well as an investment in the country's future. Taxpayers have an obligation to invest in that future, because they are the beneficiaries as well. Financial aid shouldn't be considered welfare.

Both lawmakers and those who influence lawmakers seem to favor the shift in federal aid policies. The Department of Education in a recent statement admonished it was reasonable to expect the student — and not the taxpayers — to shoulder most of the costs of his education, since he is the prime beneficiary of that investment.

So, where does this leave the lowand middle-income student who may be reluctant to take on a tremendous debt burden? Simply stated, the poor student's route to middle-class jobs is

Parking solution: create shuttle system To the editor:

Recently Mark Pfeifer and I were discussing the parking problem over cuisine at the 89'er. We reached the conclusion that there is plenty of parking at CSU. The only shortage is in the energy level of those who have to park

out on the south "40."

One solution would be to institute a shuttle service. After you park your car, a waiting Cushman cart would whisk you to the appropriate building.

A moving sidewalk might be the answer. Assuming, of course, maintenence could find time to install

it between shuttle runs. It should be faster than most campus elevators.

But if we alleviate the "parking problem," what will people write to The Vista about? Probably how slow the new system is or how much it costs.

Fatal diseases not created 'in the mind' To the editor:

This letter is in response to Fred Walters views in the April 7 issue of The Vista. Walters claims not only AIDS, but all diseases, are psychological.

truly wanted to die. How does Walters explain the people who go through numerous surgeries and spend countless amounts of money for medical purposes? Is it because they have a deathwish? I think not.

Walters also pointed out no one dies from a disease unless they've decided to already. I don't know where he gets his information, but I seriously doubt everyone who has died from a disease

Fred Walters also believes disease is invited by the body. In some cases, such as alcoholism, I agree. However, what about all we've heard about our white blood cells, which protect our

body from invading germs and diseases? Furthermore, is Mr. Walters claiming he knows more than all of the great scientists and doctors who discovered, and use, antibiotics and penicillin?

I'd like Fred Walters to ask all of the people who have been saved from leukemia by modern medicine if they think they would have been better off with no medical cure.

Dimension News: World, state and local Soviets make new arms offers Soviet Leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev made a new arms control offer to Secretary of State George P. Shultz Tuesday, an offer Tass, the official Soviet news agency, said went beyond proposals the Soviets have made earlier.

White House Press Secretary Dan Howard said if what Tass said is true, the administration would take seriously the offer, which proposes to remove short range as well as medium range missles from the European Theater.

U.S. and Soviet arms experts have been meeting separately from Shultz and Gorbachev to narrow differences, and even though espionage charges have clouded the conference, State Department spokesmen have called the meetings "very businesslike."

Stock market continues fall For the second day in a row, the stock market dropped, fueled by higher interest rates.

Tuesday's market fell over 30 points on the second most busy day in stock market history. Stocks have been depressed over the past week because of rising interest rates on the bond market.

The rising interest rates are being spurred on by the falling dollar against other nations' currency.

Many experts are predicting the country is in the same condition now that it found itself in the late 1920s, and consequently the market is headed for another crash.

Empie resigns, Bellmon pleased State Banking Commissioner R.Y. Empie has resigned in exchange for Governor Henry Bellmon dropping removal actions initiated a month ago. Bellmon said he was satisfied with Empie's resignation, saying he had accomplished what he had set out to do.

The governor had formally charged Empie over a month ago of "incompetence, malfeasance and neglect of duty."

Bellmon said Tuesday the charges against Empie concerning insider trading of bank stock were not as serious as originally believed.

Bellmon said he didn't owe Empie an apology, and that both men had signed an agreement stating Empie had served the state for seven years "with integrity."

Senator threatens Leone's job The State Senate's Education Committee Chairperson Sen. Bernice Shedrick said Tuesday she would try to force Higher Education Chancellor Joe Leone to quit if he has been getting paid funds from a secondary job for doing work that he normally does in his position for the state.

The dispute came out of testimony by Higer Education Regent J.D. Helms, who was employed as a trustee at the Oklahoma Higher Education System Foundation with Leone as president, but stepped down "because of concern that trustees weren't given enough say in foundation decisions."

Reports have indicated Leone was paid a monthly salary of $1,250, and also was supplied with the use of an automobile, complete with gasoline and maintenance.

Shedrick said if the reports were true, she wouldn't allow the appropriation of any money to the state's higher education system until Leone stepped down.

Arrested prosecuter free on bail District Attorney H. Russell Wright Jr., arraigned Tuesday on drug charges, was released the same day after spending the night in jail.

Wright was arrested for cocaine possession and distribution charges, even though he claimed to have been working for federal authorities over a year. Wright's attorney, D.C. Thomas, said federal prosecuters agreed as early as February if Wright was indicted, he would be allowed to turn himself in, rather than be arrested and spend the night in jail.

At the arraignment, Wright read a brief statement which said he cooperated "completely and fully" with the FBI and U.S. attorney's office for almost a year, and added, "This is what I got in return."

Readers' forum

AIDS alarms legislature To the editor: AIDS claims the hopes, dreams and lives of its victims. However, perhaps its most consuming claim is society's sense of personal security. If one loses his sense of security, he sometimes loses his ability to rationalize as well.

Discussion about mandatory AIDS screening for students before admission to colleges and universities demonstrates irrational thinking by state lawmakers. According to Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services, the AIDS screening program has not advanced past the discussion stage.

Additionally, according to Dan Hobbs, senior vice chancellor for planning and policy research of the Staff for Higher Education, the administrative bodies of individual colleges will be responsible for establishing policies regarding AIDS under the principles and guidelines recommended by the Regents.

As the AIDS toll continues to climb, it will become necessary for all college and universities to adopt policies regarding screening on campuses, according to Hobbs.

"The Regents establish principles and guidelines for adopting policies to protect individual civil rights, both of the student and the faculty," Hobbs continued.

One must begin settling the AIDS dispute by defining the methods in which the virus spreads. Medical research indicates AIDS is an infectious disease not communicable like measles or rubella. The virus spreads through contact in sexual intimacy or with contaminated blood products.

Those who use drugs have been

listed among the high risk groups for contracting AIDS. With a growing number of drug-users on campuses, lawmakers fear an AIDS outbreak. Fortunately, those who are informed about the disease see little to worry about, and with good reason.

AIDS cannot be caught like the common cold. It can only be contracted through very specific modes of behavior, primarily drug usage and sexual intercourse.

The State legislature should be reminded these behaviors are not part of classroom format.

Futhermore, a student cannot contract AIDS from touching an infected individual's body or clothes, brushing against him in a crowded hallway or sitting next to him in class.

Additionally, an infected individual cannot pollute another's air through breathing or coughing. If there were 50 AIDS victims in one classroom, what difference would it make?

The idea that seems most bewildering is the legislature's choice of college campuses as a target area for the spread of AIDS. If the legislature's concern is genuine, they would be concentrating on controlling the disease within more probable target areas, such as gay night-clubs.

Eliminating infected drug-users can only do so much good.

Removing one infected student from campus certainly cannot prevent other students from associating with him off-campus, and possibly contracting the disease.

According to Ann Stewart, head nurse at the Student Health Center, a primary concern of educational institutions is to prevent an individual rendering

health care or food services from infecting students. This may be the only thread of logic to legislative concern.

While screening of employees working in health and nutrition areas of universities doesn't sound like such a bad idea, it really isn't necessary. It is true that secretions of blood from an open wound of an infected individual are infectious to others. Simple precautionary measures such as covering open sores and wearing gloves reduces any risk involved.

Established health standards already enforce compliance of safety precautions in instances in which infection could be spread.

Furthermore, medical research indicates minimal opportunities for the infection to be spread in this respect. One must remember gloves are the only thing a medical technologist utilizes to protect his hands from coming in contact with infectious serum in AIDS HTLV III testing.

The cost for implementing such a program into college and universities would drain funds that are not even there. The cost of such a program far outweighs the benefits, and makes AIDS screening not only impractical, but irrational and without purpose, at least on college campuses.

Maybe when the AIDS crisis eases, the state legislature can begin thinking about realistic solutions to problems within their control. The only tenative solution to the AIDS crisis is through individual choice. One must be self-controlled, disciplined and discretionary, not only for himself, but for the lives of others. Right now, it's the only hope there is.

Defense plan unwanted To the editor: President Reagan announced the Strategic Defense Initiative, dubbed Star Wars March 23, 1983 as a method of deterrence. Since that time, the necessity of such a program has been questioned by politicians, scientists and concerned citizens.

Does the United States need such a program or is this another ploy of the government to dupe

the public into acceptance of a costly and perhaps dangerous defensive system? It is the responsibility and duty of every adult to read, study and know what is being produced for the safety and protection of the people.

According to statistics of the "Current World Leaders," the Star Wars program was implemented to counteract the Soviet's "1,298 land-based missiles with a total of 6,420 warheads that separate after launch to hit different targets, and the 964 ships carrying 2,410 nuclear warheads." Well, Americans can sleep better at night knowing that their country is safe, or is it? With the new defensive system aimed at Russia, surely it will need something to counteract the Star Wars program. So where does it end?

Some people believe deterrence has kept the peace. Assuming this is true, then the defensive system used before Star Wars should continue to work toward peace-

keeping. Star Wars is unnecessary and dangerous.

Russia and the United States are enemies, and they will probably remain so until the world no longer exists. The quest for military superiority and world power will never allow these two countries to be otherwise.

However, most of the citizens of the U.S. have no quarrels with most of the citizens of Russia. The problem is in the hands of a selected few, and the remainder of the people must suffer the consequences of the decisions of a few.

A simple defensive system that could blow the world apart seems to be enough deterrent to any enemy, so why design something more powerful? Dead is dead, and that is what the world is facing if both countries continue to jockey for power positions at the expense of innocent people. It is time to speak out against nuclear weapons from both countries!

Editor H.1. (known as Hi) McDunnough is a three-time-convicted convenience store robber who meets, and falls in love with, his booking officer Edwina (known as Ed).

After the couple marries, Hi decides to become a changed man and raise a family. Ed's only desire is to bring a baby into their one-bedroom trailer in the Arizona desert.

Yet the doctors tell Ed she is infertile, and from then on the tale of Nathan Jr.'s adventures becomes the plot for the most

obscure, strange and hilarious comedy to come out in years, "Raising Arizona."

Review

Ed and Hi decide the answer to their childless life is to steal a baby from Nathan Arizona, the owner of the largest unpainted furniture and bathroom fixture franchise in Arizona. The Arizona family just had quintuplets, and Ed and Hi figure they can take one of the children because Arizona already has "more than he can handle."

Hi breaks in, and after a fastpaced "baby" chase scene, grabs little Nathan Jr. and once again begins his life of crime.

Nicholas Cage, star of "Valley Girl " "Peggy Sue Got Married" an' The Cotton Club," enters the world of true slapstick, parody comedy with a vengence.

He makes Hi, despite his outlaw behavior, into a vulnerable, sensitive and almost loveable character whose luck always leans toward the bad side.

Holly Hunter gives a whole new meaning to maternal love. Her portrayal of Ed, the tough, brash ex-cop whose life revolves around

their stolen child, is solid and very professional. Hunter should go far in the movie industry, she has natural talent and polished skills.

Don't be deceived by the previews, which depict this movie as immature and ignorant. "Raising Arizona" attacks today's society, outlaw movies, police officers, corporate leaders and even the President of the United States.

The dialogue is fast and witty; written, produced and directed by the creators of "Blood Simple," Ethan and Joel Coen.

But the true scene-stealer is Nathan Jr., the coolest baby in movies today.

These disorders are on the rise in young, upper-middle class women who are overachievers, self-critical, shy and compliant and are unsure of themselves at a time in their lives where growing up is really hard.

Martin is an Art Education major and is working on his master's degree at CSU. "I had the accident in Detroit in 1965," Martin said. "I broke my neck, and was diagnosed a quadriplegic, even though I do have some control of the upper half of my body."

The accident alone would be more than most people could handle. In addition to the accident, Martin dealt with a drug problem.

"After I got out of rehabilitation, I became involved in the Black Panthers, and it was during that time drugs became a problem for me." Martin said.

Martin survived his bout with drugs,and after he had as much of that as he "could handle," he moved to Northern Michigan.

It was the move to Northern Michigan that brought about a

"divine change" within him.

"When I moved up there, I began to talk to a Christian, who just kept hounding me to discover Christ. It took almost three years, but I finally did, and it changed my life forever," Martin said.

That was in 1973. Martin then began his college career at Ferris State College in Big Rapids, Michigan. He majored in Human Services. After completing that phase of his education, he and his family moved to Miami Fla., where he took a job at AT&T. "I realized while I was working in Miami that I would rather direct my attention elsewhere," said Martin. "Since my children were grown and out of the house, I felt like it was my turn to do what I wanted to do.

"I felt like getting back into art was a challange to my faith, and that's the key to why I'm still around. There's not very many 20-year-veterans of wheel chairs around. Most people get discouraged, or just don't take care of themselves, and deteriorate...I don't want that to happen to me."

As to why he has survived as long as he has, Martin gave credit to God, and his work reflects it.

Martin said he is fond of stippling, a process where individual dots, viewed from just a short distance away, appear to become gentle lines. Stippling is a common method Martin uses in his art, but he also does draws and paints.

Softballers humble Aggies

By Mary Butler Student Writer The CSU softball team wasn't looking forward to tossing balls and swinging bats under the chilly-gray, sunless sky Tuesday, but they managed to make the most of their afternoon arctic adventure.

The Lady Bronchos pounded out 15 hits and took advantage of 10 errors to score 19 runs in eight innings and wrap up a pair of runrule contests against the Cameron University Lady Aggies, 9-0 and 10-1.

Gladys Griffin anchored the Lady Broncho romp in the first half of the doubleheader. The righthanded junior threw a nohitter, stroked a pair of hits, including a three-run triple, and scored twice to earn her 15th win of the year.

VISTA CSU's slick, leadoff left fielder, Leslie Blaylock, once again sparked a first-inning Lady Broncho lead, beating out a bunt from the leftside of the box, promptly stealing second, and winding up on third after a Michelle Laney sacrifice bunt.

Junior Tami Loy, one of CSU's top offensive weapons this season, delivered a single up the middle to score Blaylock. The Lady Bronchos added a walk and a single to set things up for freshman shortstop Pam Martin

SPORTS

who stroked a two-run single and put CSU ahead 4-0.

Senior centerfielder Michelle Laney started things again in the fourth, working a leadoff walk.

Loy beat out a Cameron miscue and catcher Dee Gerlach managed a free pass before Griffin stroked the game-ender.

In the second half of the twinbill, Blaylock worked her magic again, putting down another dragbunt single, swiping a base and hustling home on a Cameron error to score CSU's first run.

The Lady Bronchos added four more in the second after the Cameron crew handed out five errors and Loy ripped another RBIsingle to plate a pair of CSU runs.

Third baseman Cyndi Short added a two-run shot in the third after Martin drew a walk and outfielder Cheri Happe beat out a bunt to give the Lady Bronchos a 7-0 lead. Blaylock knocked in the last run of the inning with an RBI infield ground-out.

CSU closed the door in the bottom half of the fourth after

Gerlach wound up on first on a fielders choice and Martin walked. Both runners advanced on a wild pitch before Happe socked a single good for two runs.

The Lady Aggies put a runner across the plate in their side of the fifth on a basehit, stolen base and CSU error to avoid a pair of shutouts, but still ended up on the losing end of a 10-1 score.

Jane Kajs, the Lady Bronchos versatile junior hurler, scattered four hits across five innings to improve her record to 5-3.

CSU boasts an impressive 21-7 record and a fourth place ranking in the NA1A national poll.

The Lady Bronchos will be idle over the Easter holiday, but are scheduled to square off against Connors Junior College in a scrimmage Wednesday afternoon at home.

Speed keys Broncho split

By John Helsley Sports Editor Despite collecting just three base hits, the CSU baseball team raced to a 4-3 win in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader at Cameron to forge a split with the Aggies.

The Bronchos took advantage of seven walks and added six stolen bases to carve out the opening game victory and snap a three-game losing streak.

Cameron rallied late in the second game for a 10-8 win.

Since the CSU bats have been relatively silent this season, the Bronchos have relied on speed to produce runs. The story was the same Tuesday, as stolen bases and agressive base-running contributed to all four opening-game runs.

In the fourth inning, Tim Robinson led off with a double and went to third on Rick Lewis' sacrifice bunt. After Mike Henson walked and stole second, catcher Scott Heiple layed down a perfect suicidesqueeze bunt, scoring Robinson and moving Henson to third.

Chuck Stout followed with a walk and went to third on Mike Kennedy's single, which plated Henson. Cameron got out of the inning by throwing out Stout at the plate on a delayed, double steal.

Two successful delayed, double steals, one in the fifth and another in the seventh, sandwiched a sixthinning Aggie run to give the Bronchos a 4-1 lead.

CSU starting pitcher Jay Sparks had a one-hitter

going into the bottom of the seventh, but the freshman righthander surrendered back-to-back singles to open the final frame.

Doug Gillis relieved and recorded two quick outs, before walking Cal Murrell to load the bases. Kip Coate then rapped a two-run single to narrow the Broncho lead to one. But Gillis saved the win by getting Tom Wagner to ground out for the last out of the game.

Sparks, who has assumed the role of the CSU ace, improved to 4-1 with the win and Gillis picked up his second save.

In the nightcap, the Bronchos had leads of 2-0, 5-1 and 8-4, but they couldn't hold off the Aggies in the late innings.

Catcher Kevin Littlefield gave CSU a 5-1 lead in the third when he cracked a two-run triple. Wagner cut the Broncho lead with a solo homer in the bottom of the inning, but another double steal made it 6-2 for CSU in the fourth.

The Aggies bounced back for a pair of runs in the bottom of the inning on five singles and tied the game at 8-8 with a four-run fifth inning. Ken Brock's tape-measure home run highlighted the comeback.

Two more Aggie runs in the sixth accounted for the final score as Byron Shoumaker lost his first decision, giving up the two sixth-inning runs on two hits.

CSU will close its regular season schedule Wednesday with a doubleheader in Enid against Phillips.

CSU's Trino Ressler is out trying to beat out an infield hit as the Cameron first baseman makes the catch.

Gladys Griffin ducks a shoulder and plows into the Aggie third baseman, knocking the ball loose in Tuesday's doubleheader. Griffin was caught in a rundown between third and home, but was safe on the play.

James inks three All-State wrestlers

By John Helsley Sports Editor

Head wrestling coach David James has announced three 1987 All-State high school wrestlers have signed letters of intent to wrestle at CSU next season.

Jeff Gowens, a projected 126-pounder from Del City, and two Moore grapplers, 177 to 190-pounder Todd Stapleton and 190/heavyweight Greg Oplotnik, have each been added to the Broncho fold.

Gowens was 26-2 his senior year at Del City and claimed 130-pound tournament titles at Geary, Putnam City North, Tulsa Edison and in the West Regional.

He was a state runnerup as a junior, but did not place his senior

year when he was hampered by a knee injury that later required surgery.

"He is as good a recruit as there is in the state at the weight," said James. "OSU (Oklahoma State University) would have gone after him hard if he hadn't had such a bad state tournament."

The Bronchos appear to be well stocked at the lower and middle weights for next season, but with Bill Ogilvie and Johnny Deaton out of eligibility, the upper weights are thin.

"I feel like we need to get some numbers at 177 to heavyweight," James forcasted. "We are focusing on those weights and hoping to get people who can add depth

and possibly contribute right away."

James went to Moore High School and inked a pair of teammates in an effort to shore up the higher weights. Stapleton was 27-3 as a senior and finished third in the state tournament at 190 pounds. Oplotnik finished 22-5 and also was third at state.

"The three guys we signed are good ones, and we feel like we

"All three have scored over 17 on the ACT test and have over a 3.0 grade point average. That's important to us," he continued.

"I've been here for five years and

the kids I've had that excel both on the mat and in the classroom are the ones you can count on."

James indicated he may sign a total of 10-12 wrestlers before recruiting is completed. One of James' main priorities of the recruiting season is Deer Creek High School heavyweight Matt McCoullough, an undefeated state champion this year.

have had a good start in recruiting," the coach said.

"They each have good credentials, not state championships, but they have great attitudes and fit the mold of our program.

Oklahoma Christian College is the favorite going into the meet.

Ironically, CSU has won the past six district meets and OCC captured the previous six.

"It should be the closest district meet we've had in quite a few years," said Parent. "Right now, I'd have to say that OCC has a big advantage in the field events and we have an advantage in the running events."

Parent said he thought his team's best chances come in the 100-meter dash, the 200, 400, pole vault, high jump and both the 400 and 1600-meter relays.

"We are going to go compete, but we don't have the field event people that we've had in the past and we have a lot of freshmen," said Parent.

In the women's district race, it is also expected to be a battle between OCC and CSU and, possibly, OBU. At the John Jacobs Invitational in Norman Saturday, Amber Tilley turned in the best performance, placing second in the Heptathlon.

The men's 400-meter relay team placed fourth with their best time of the year. Doug Gonzales, Kevin Campbell, Dallas Tice and Tim Taylor combined for a time of 41.63 to qualify for the national tournament.

Hotline benefits teens

By Cheryl Burget

Student Writer More than 10,000 young people have received help through the Oklahoma Adolescent Crisis Telephone (OK ACT) Teenline, according to training coordinator Candy Camhi.

The hot line is supported by the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Department of Pedatrics, Division of Adolescent Medicine, the Oklahoma Teaching Hospitals and many citizens.

The hotline was launched through a national foundation that chose Oklahoma for the Adolescent Health Project because the state ranks above the national average in teen accidents, suicides, homicides, teen preganancies, veneral disease, alcohol abuse, drug abuse and emotional disturbances.

Teenline began in November 1985, with the mission of addressing the health care needs of adolescents and young adults throughout the state, Camhi said..

Every day from noon to midnight, the crisis intervention hotline is available to young people who are in trouble, Cahmi said, need information or want someone to talk to about any subject.

According to Camhi, the purpose of OK ACT is to provide adolescents and young adults an accessible contact person capable

Persimmon Ridge

DUPLEXES

$340 800 N. Chowning Edmond

348-5112

Southwest Properties Mngmt. Corp.

of supplying information, referral, support and short-term counseling.

This service will have the capability of responding to a full range of adolescent crises, medical and social problems, including suicide, pregnancies, chemical abuse, physical and sexual abuse and family disputes, Cahmi said.

As the project progresses, there are several components that are being implemented, Cahmi said.

First, the program is designed to be preventive. Second, it provides adolescents and young adults with a rapid referral service. Third, it provides opportunities for adolescents and young adults to receive prompt, accurate and confidential answers based on individual situations.

Fourth, OK ACT will provide the opportunity to gather data regarding the nature of problems confronted by teens statewide.

Fifth, the teenline will be the hub of communications dealing with any issues concerning Oklahoma's young people.

Teenline volunteers are comprised of adolescents and adults which represent diverse backgrounds including homemakers, students, medical support personnel and various professionals, Cahmi said.

Volunteers are trained in a number of topics, including pregnancy, drug and alcohol abuse, suicide, incest and sexual abuse, the grief process, eating disorders, homosexuality, veneral disease, peer pressure, feelings of loneliness and isolation.

"The Teenline is not intended to take the place of parental guidance," Camhi said. "It is available because there may not always be someone around when problems with young adults arise.

"Teenline is a way we can show the adolescents of Oklahoma that we care about them."

For more information, call OK ACT Teenline at 271-TEEN.
