New plan prevents invasion of privacy NEW YORK (AP) — The Clinton administration will announce a plan to preserve privacy in electronic communications through new technology, according to a published report.

The plan — using a system of encoding voice and computer transmissions to prevent unauthorized listening — would incorporate features ensuring the government could still eavesdrop for law enforcement and national security purposes, The New York Times said.

DNA test shows man isn't rapist after 7 years in prison ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — Walter T. Snyder Jr. has spent nearly seven years in prison — close to 2,500 long days and just as many nights — for a rape that prosecutors now say he didn't commit.

Convinced by a DNA test that eliminated Snyder as the rapist, Commonwealth's Attorney John E. Kloch joined the prisoner's lawyer and parents in their bid to win his freedom.

The prosecutor endorsed the findings in Snyder's case that a recent DNA test showed another man was responsible.

But Snyder, 26, remains behind bars at the Nottaway Correctional Center near Richmond, and his lawyer, Peter J. Neufeld of New York, is frustrated by the continuing delay.

Aides to Wilder say any clemency plea should be examined carefully before an inmate is released.

The Student Voice Since 1903

Student Writer The second annual Earth Shaker Jam will be from 12:30 to 6p.m. April 22.

The concert, which coincides with the Earth Day celebration, will take place in Centennial Square (Thatcher Lake).

The free concert is being sponsored by the University of Central Oklahoma chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and the Earth Day Committee of UCO. Various local bands will perform. Uncle Bill (formerly known as Split Decision) will headline and other bands will include The Wobblies, Burden and Peace Museum.

Ash and Leo, The Road Warriors from KATT radio, will also serve as masters of ceremonies.

All the bands performing will play a variety of music. The Wobblies perform alternative rock, and their music is geared to make an industrial, political statement .

There will be a team volleyball competition at 1:30p.m., and a fee will be charged to each team competing. The volleyball competition as well as the food and various booths will be sponsored by the Earth Day committee.

ares for Earth Day The jam came close to being a no-show, said PRSSA members.

"We had to write letters to the administration about what went wrong last year and how we can fix it," said Shelly Clark, president of PRSSA. "We had to have department chairs And deans sign a petition, and then

we had to write a letter stating what we had corrected from last year," said Mona Nickels, PRSSA publicity chairman. "This concert is benefiting the whole university. The benefits from the volleyball teams will be given to an undetermined environmental organization."

Ecum nical worship planned

Northeast is richest WASHINGTON (AP) — The largest family paychecks in the nation are brought home in the big-city suburbs of the Northeast.

At the other end of the scale, there's a stretch of South Texas farm land on the Mexican border where family income is the lowest in the nation.

There's a connection between what you make and where you live, census figures show.

The counties where median family income is highest are concentrated outside Washington, D.C., and New York City.

Most of the lowest-income counties are rural. In Starr County, Texas, the median family makes only $10,903 a year, the lowest family median in the nation.

Staff Writer An Earth Day ecumenical worship service, headed by Rev. Michael T. McEwen, will be held from 12:45 - 1:15 p.m. April 22 at the Y chapel at the University of Central Oklahoma.

An ecumenical worship means all faces of religion are involved.

The service will include music, scripture readings, prayer and a talk

by McEwen, campus Minister for the Ecumenical Campus Ministry (ECM) of UCO. "I'll talk a little about our responsibility to take care of our planet," McEwen said. "I'm going to be talking about the common religious traditions of caring for the earth. For instance, the Native Americans were very close to the earth. Western religions like Judaism, Islam, Christianity, they all use the old testament. The belief that the physical world was created by God and we were to take care of it."

The service will be the first performed for Earth Day by the ECM. Involved in ECM are five Edmond churches: First Christian, First Presbyterian, St. Mary's Episcopal, Peace Lutheran and Southern Hills Christian.

The Baptist Student Union, the Wesley Foundation and the Catholic Campus Ministries will also be involved in the service.

In addition to the Earth Day service, ECM is making plans for more campus religious observances and activities. Topics under discussion include different races and cultures, ecumenical efforts and issues of social concern.

"We're going to try to relate to some of the special interest groups on campus," McEwen.

Everyone can help the planet Since Earth Day began more than 20 years ago, we have been given thousands of ways, and reasons, to help "save the Earth."

And our generation has certainly taken an active role in trying to make the planet a better place to live.

Being environmentally conscious doesn't mean you have to go around in Birkenstocks and tie-dye condemning those who throw empty pop cans into trash cans instead of recycling bins.

It means helping out, without a self-righteous atttitude, and it can be quite difficult. As Kermit the frog says, "It's not easy being green." The planet is a large place and there are countless ways to help.

The issue you choose to tackle, whether it be animal testing, global warming, pollution or recycling, will help you make an effective contribution to purifying the planet.

And "being green" is not just a fad or a trendy thing to do. It's a way of life. We should do these things not to be "cool," but to conserve what little resources we still have available on our dying planet.

The decision to be environmentally aware is a decision to help or hurt the Earth. When we don't recycle, we are consciously and actively contributing to the Earth's destruction.

The Earth will not become the Garden of Eden overnight. But if we all pitch in and help, maybe we can make it a little bit nicer, a little bit more pure.

Pres. Bill Clinton said in his Inaugural Address that each generation of Americans must define what it means to be an American. Today, being an American means making sure that future generations have an America to live in.

So, if you're not doing your part to help out, think about the consequences of continuing to let the Earth go to waste. Like the Garden of Eden, once the damage is done, it can't be reversed.

And juste like Adam and Eve, we will all pay painfully in the end.

Former candidate endorses opponent

I

, Carole Crawley, ran for president of the Student Body in the Student Government elections held April 1 and 2. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of my supporters. Each vote I received was very appreciated. Due to the fact that no candidate received 50 percent plus one of the vote, there will be a run-off election.

I, however, will not be in the

run-off election. The top two candidates, Aarron Montgomery and Joacquin Stevens, will be in the run-off. As a previous opponent, I would like to now publicly endorse Aarron Montgomery for Student Body President. After having worked with both Aarron and Joacquin, I feel that Aarron is the person for the position.

Aarron Montgomery is a very sharp individual who has the abil-

ity to lead the students of UCO through the upcoming changes of this campus. I have full-faith that Aarron Montgomery should be the next UCO Student body President, and now I encourage all of my supporters to support Aarron Montgomery. Remember— progress takes change, change to Montgomery.

Plasma donators still needed

T

his is in response to Helen Siow's response on do nating plasma. I feel that if she had done her homework she would have found something interesting to write about. First of all, you don' t lose blood when you donate plasma. The machine filters the plasma from the blood and the blood is again filtered and put back in your system. That dispels the though one risk of getting hypovolumaenia and anemia.

Secondly, I don't think ethics

have anything to do with selling plasma. The plasma you donate goes to help hemophilia patients as well as those needing marrow transplants just to name a few.

Since the blood is returned to your system, you don't have to spend your money on various supplements.

In defense of the plasma industry, I think it should be noted that not everyone can donate plasma, They weigh you, give you an iron test, test your cholesterol, check

your blood pressure, and check your temperature before you can even be considered a donor—any they do that every time you come in!

So all of you out there considering donating, don't be afraid.

There are people out there in need of your plasma and you, as a college student, can definitely use the money!

Student questions president's outings

I

just recently found in my possession a pamphlet that listed the reasons why we should re-elect Joacquin Stevens for S tudent Government President.

The pamphlet listed numerous committees and delegations that Stevens had attended or had been chosen for.

I began to ask myself, 'how have all of these committees and conferences that Joacquin Stevens attended helped me as a student?'

I'm sure all of these extra activities help to pad Steven's resume, but to tell you the truth, in my junior year at the University of Central Oklahoma, I see that very little in the way of benefits for the students have come out of this.

Another question also comes to mind, where does the money come from to send Stevens around the state and parts unknown? I sure hope the money doesn't come from my tuition, but it probably does.

With 43 conference, committees, conventions and meetings listed, not counting the amount of time Stevens spends going to class and hopefully doing homework, when does Joacquin Stevens have the time homework? When does Joacquin Stevens have the time to actually work for the student body of UCO? —

Student feels safer on campus at night with Operation Safe Walk he headline "UCO em ployee arrested for sex offense" was on an articlen page 9 in The Vista on March 30, 1993. It was about a University of Central Oklahoma employee, Ronald Handy, who was arrested on counts of lewd and indecent proposals and expo-

Will you feel safe after you know that someone in the same university that you are studying is a sex offender? Maybe there are some more around the campus that the police have not found out

Student seeks new association

am an international student studying in my second se mester here at the University of Central Oklahoma. I've noticed that the university has a wide range of international students coming form all part of the world. The great part about it is that this university has a wide range of international associations from different countries around the world studying here at UCO. As an international student here, I find that the Associations here stress more on their own country. Therefor, the information that we get concerning about all the international students from other countries is limited I would suggest forming anew Association organized by the International students.

The purpose of forming this organization are below: 1) to establish a new friendship among the international students from all the participating countries; 2) to introduce the Americans to world culture, geography and so forth; 3) exchange of different culture among international students and the Americans for example sports, tradi-

/

tion, fashions, the way people think, understanding the intercommunication of the different racers and so forth.

To have more mutual understanding among international students, every semester each representing country will take turn holding a post in the organization. Each country will hold a different post under the committee. Therefore, every representative from these countries will have the chance to run the whole organization. It will help to have better ties among the participant countries.

I understand that the international students would agree with my suggestions and hoping that the university and International office would consider my suggestion of forming up an International Student Association at UCO. I understand that this is one positive ways to bring better ties with the Americans and all the International students who are studying here in UCO. Aida Idris

about yet. When you think about this, you will be afraid to walk alone on the campus during the night.

Fortunately, we have Operation Safe Walk which will accompany us to walk on campus at night. They really do a good job for us. We will feel safer to take a

night class, and at night we can go to the library to study withou t much worry about walking alone.

However, we still have a lot of people who do not use this safety "equipment." They are putting themselves at the risk of rape, robbery, kidnapping, indecent exposure, molestation and so on.

For your safety, I strongly suggest that you use Operation Safe Walk if you cannot find someone trustworthy to accompany you to walk the campus during night time.

Do not play with your safety.

Health food made here

By Deena Banther Student Writer

Fenton Rood and Tempie Nichols own the Earth. Well, not the planet, but they are doing their part to help the planet through their store, The Earth.

The health food store, with locations in Norman and Oklahoma City, offers a healthy lifestyle for all ages.

Nichols, a sociology professor at the University of Central Oklahoma, was a long-time customer of the Norman store before purchasing it.

"I became a step-mom and after reading the backs of cereal boxes, I decided I wanted more for my kids," said Nichols.

Rood and Nichols bought the

Norman store in 1982, and in 1984 they bought the Oklahoma City store. They developed the restaurants in 1985.

The Earth, the first grocer to sell organically grown produce, was established in 1969 in Norman.

All products are all natural, unprocessed or organically grown, and contain no additives or preservatives.

They specialize in vitamins, minerals, herbs, spices, grains and produce. Energy supplements that enhance the memory, an herbal tea line, natural cleaning products and organic gardening supplies are all specialty items at The Earth.

The store is currently the only recycling center in Norman that accepts computer paper and white office paper.

The Earth' s newest addition is the restaurant. They prepare meals

made from scratch with all-natural foods. The menu consists of a wide variety of foods and the two favorites are the Soft Bean Taco ($3.25) and Beans and Rice ($1.75).

Other menu items include fresh juices and Tempeh Fajitas.

"Traditionally, most health food eaters are primarily females, but we have a good mix of clientele." said Nichols.

The main attraction for college students would be "quick nutritious food that tastes good and is cheaper than the fast food restaurants, and it' s a safe place to meet men in suits," said Nichols.

The Earth stores are located at 309 S. Flood Ave. in Norman, and 49th and N. Western in Oklahoma City. Their hours are 10-8p.m.

Monday-Friday, 10-6 p.m. Saturday, and 10-5 p.m. Sunday.

Students describe their wait in enrollment lines

By Shirley S. Taylor Student Reporter

Split-enrollment is being conducted until Apr. 26 in the University of Central Oklahoma's Administration Building.

Currently, enrollment for Fall `93 is on a controlled basis Tudesdays through Thursdays.

Students whose last name begins with a certain letter of the alphabet and who have completed a specific number of hours are permitted to register on specific days.

Mondays and Fridays are open to anyone who meets the minimum required hours, regardless of the beginning letter of their last name, said Becky Conley, super-

visor of registration for the admissions department.

Hours of enrolment are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The busiest hours for enrolling are at 8 a.m., 9:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., and between 3 and 5 p.m., said Conley.

Although the wait in line can be as little as 15 minutes, it's usually not until students are in their junior or senior year.

"I graduate next fall, this is my last one (enrollment line)," said Karen Wright, psychology major, who has stood in line as long as two hours.

She said she just talked to people

in line and discussed how frustrating it was.

"It seems like there'd be a better system," said Wright.

But for Amy Daise, a transfer student from Oklahoma City University, enrolling at UCO has been quick. This is her second enrollment and she said she expected to be in line for about 10 minutes.

"I don't do anything with my time. I guess this is just a time for me to unwind because I drive all the way here from Norman, so I get to stretch," said Daise.

At OCU, Daise said she and others would sit on the floor and talk while passing time during the

wait to enroll.

Kenny Monk, who was withdrawing, also said he'd only been in line about ten minutes. However, he said when he reached the registration desk he was told he had a hold on his record and needed to see Drew Duke, the Student Accounts Manager.

After a brief visit with Duke, Monk said he returned to the registration desk and was allowed to finish his withdrawal without having to go to the back of the line.

The class schedule and school catalog both state that any hold on a student's record will prevent the student from enrolling.

Students can find out what, if any, holds are placed on their records by viewing the Student Information Terminals in the enrollment center located in the northwest corner of the Administration Building, said Duke.

A financial hold could be for non-payment of fees, a traffic ticket, or yen a library fine.

"Ninety-five percent of the students who go through the line are going to be OK," said Duke.

Starting Apr. 27, telephone and open enrollment begin. Open enrollment means anyone can enroll at any time.

Workers sue after bogus 'robbery'

Staff Writer

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Five workers are suing their employer for allegedly not telling them that an armed robbery at their office was a fake being staged as a "security seminar."

The TCI Cablevision of Tulsa employees are asking for damages of more than SI0M0 from TCI and the security company that allegedly staged the robbery, Elite Protective and Security Services Inc. The lawsuit alleges that Elite employees posed as robbers armed with fake handguns March 23 and struck the TCI office in east Tulsa. One office supervisor knew about the plan but wept and posed as a hostage. attorney Matt Riggin said.

"She was quite an actress," he said.

Oklahoma college students have begun a letter writing campaign asking the state legislature to carefully consider reducing the proposed 9 percent cut in appropriations for higher education, said Joacquin Stevens, president of the University of Central Oklahoma Student Government Association.

"Earlier this month, we talked with state senators and representatives about the proposed cut on state appropriations," said Stevens. "We tried to represent

Nancy Drew fans hold convention DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Nancy Drew, girl sleuth, has solved mysteries for six decades. Now, at a perpetual 18, she's going to college.

A conference devoted to Nancy Drew was held at the University of Iowa in Iowa City this weekend. Hundreds signed up, many claiming the clever, titian-haired teen-ager who tooled around in her roadster with her chums, tomboy George and plump, pretty Bess, was the inspiration of their lives.

The idea for a Nancy Drew conference came about laSt year when the university's journalism school named Ms. Benson to its hall of fame.

Wearing white shrouds and carrying copies of the Koran, Islam's holy book, the men chanted "Allahu Akhar" (God is great) and "May God bestow martyrdom on us" during the 1— mile march.

The deportees seek to draw attention to their plight and protest an expected decision by Palestinians to resume Arab-Israeli peace talks in Washington on Tuesday.

the students' views that these cuts could wipe out many positive things that have happened at the university level."

"We've got to make sure that kids can get a higher education," said Mike Elgin, SGA's director of minority relations. "If we can't open educational doors, economic doors will close."

UCO has 60 to 100 students involved in the letter writing campaign so far, said Stevens.

Legislators have said that they are really impressed with student involvement, he added.

"Students will be asked to sign their name and list their hometown

on the letter," said Stevens. "The SGA will address the letters to the appropriate state legislator and deliver them to the state capitol."

Each student needs to do his or her part and sign a letter for this to be successful, he said.

"Students are welcome to come by the SGA office, which is located at 424J in the University Center, or call Ext. 3337 for more information," said Stevens.

The University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and Cameron University are also sponsoring letter writing campaigns, said Elgin.

Student to present paper

By Steve Sager

Student Writer Sharon "Redhawk" Love, a junior at the University of Central Oklahoma, has been accepted to present two papers April 20-24 to the 35th annual Western Social Sciences Association(WSSA) Conference in Corpus Christi, Texas.

"It is very unusual for a student to be presenting a paper at this conference," said Dr. Richard Rettig, Chairperson of the Sociology and Criminal Justice Department.

The WSSA is a professional rather than a student organization and a division of the National Social Sciences Association.

Love will be presenting papers in two different categories.

The first paper to be presented

on Thursday April 20 is titled "The Native American Medicine Wheel: Linear Thinking vs. Spherical Thinking" in the American Studies Section.

The paper is a contrast between linear and spherical thinking and its applications.

From Loves paper, linear thinking is chronologically based, and is what our society is based on today.

In a linear society, people are controlled by an external locus, by outside surroundings, and by expectations. At age 16 you are expected to get a drivers license, at 18 vote, in your sixties retire and so on.

In a spherical society people are governed by an internal locus of control. This way promotes a natural balance and a connectedness to all things.

"People who don't follow linear society usually end up "out-

side of linear society," said Love.

In applying the spherical way of thinking to our society we could re integrate castouts, return to an internal locus of control, having an a-chronological society where you are perceived as whole and complete. And also return to a society where rites of passage exist.

In Love's second paper, titled "The Native American Medicine Wheel:The Path to Recovery," to be presented on Saturday April 24, she discusses a new treatment method, she has developed and documented, based upon the Native American Medicine Wheel.

The Wheel is supported by the seven sacred ceremonies of the Native American Indian culture.

The papers presents the beginning concepts of the new treatment method.

Software piracy causes $2.4 billion loss to U.S. industry

By Tim Linville

Staff Writer The software industry in the United States loses $2.4 billion every year due to software piracy, according to the Software Publishers Association, a trade group that enforces software copyright laws.

Information from the SPA shows that software piracy, the illegal copying of a computer program, hurts the software industry by robbing them of monies they need for research and production.

"One of the main problems with software piracy is that many people don't know it's illegal," said Dr. Bill McDaniel, assistant professor of computing science at the University of Central Oklahoma.

"In the early clays of personal computers, many people gave software away," McDaniel said, "Today, many people don't realize they need to pay for most software."

According to the SPA, a singe copyright infringement can result in civil damages of up to $100,000.

Software pirating is a problem wherever there is software and

people, says Dr. Phyllis Thornton, chair of the computing science department.

"Pirating shouldn't be a big problem on this campus," said McDaniel. "All our software is licensed."

"We make every effort we can to stop pirating, but we could do a better job if we had hardware that did not allow students direct access to the software," said Thornton.

UCO has signs posted in its computer labs that say copying software is illegal, Thornton says.

Gore gives environmental tips

By Jennifer Stipe

Student Writer Some may think environmental issues are not important. But Vice President Al Gore thinks they are.

In an interview with Kathleen McCleary of USA Weekend, the vice president shed some of his views on how everyone can help save the Earth.

The number one environmental priority for the world is the population explosion. Ways to curtail this problem are by promoting education and literacy, especially for women, and by raising child survival rates, Gore said.

While that is the number one

problem, the most important thing one can do is to learn about the crisis, he added.

Recycling is also important.

One way people can be motivated to recycle is by charging taxpayers for garbage removal by the pound, with credit for what is recycled. Some may not like it, but the cities that have done it have found a rapid reduction in the

amount of garbage put out on the curb, added the vice president.

Other things people can do to save the Earth, Gore said, are conserve energy, plant a tree, organize a cleanup, register to vote, speak out, encourage government to set an example, plan an environmental vacation, use mass transit or car pool, and change way of thinking.

Children observe Wildlife Week

By Joyce Kirtley

Student Writer

Oklahoma school children, and children across the nation, will learn about the Earth's rain forests during the National Wildlife Federation's 53rd Annual Wildlife Week, April 18-24.

NWF will distribute kits with the theme "Rain Forests: Help Save Their Layers of Life" to teachers for use in their classrooms. Each kit will include a poster showing the four "layers" of a tropical rain forest, a sheet of NWF conservation stamps and a colored poster of 12 endangered species.

The kit also includes sug-

gestions to get children involved in saving our rain forests. They can write letters to senators and representatives expressing their concern, and they can also contact pen-pals in tropical countries.

"We do this annually to create awareness of children and infuse environmental education into our school systems," said Ann Kreisler, director of the program from the NWF office in Virginia. "It's a good way to present public school children with information on the environment."

NWF has been working to conserve natural resources to protect the Earth's environment since 1936 and now has 5.3 million members and supporters.

Can herbs really cure medical ailments? or hormone treatments— try herbs!

mans have.

Such fabled cures range from using garlic to help with ulcers to brewing chamomile tea for relief from an upset stomach and menstrual cramps.

However, recent studies done by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and biologists show that the old wives' tales may have a grain of truth in them.

"There are a lot of different chemicals in herbs that (researchers) don't know about," said Dr. James Bidlack, assistant professor of biology at the University of Central Oklahoma. "They have very beneficial effects on health."

Bidlack and Paul Olson, research graduate assistant at the biology department, study herbs.

Their present project involves trying to find the most natural, nonchemical, non-pesticide way of controlling pests in crops.

Most of their research takes place at the Organic Herb Farm, owned by Ron and Gloria Hoggard.

Some of the legitimate cures for ailments include the herb, thyme.

Thyme can be broken down into a chemical called thymol which is used as an antibiotic.

Feverfew is a plant that can be made into a tea to help with migraine headaches.

"Feverfew helps me a lot," said Hoggard, who grows herbs on the farm, mainly for culinary purposes. "I get migraines and feverfew has really helped me. It prob-

ably isn't imagined because I distrusted it when I first tried it."

Studies of garlic suggest the herb can be used to ease ulcers, gas pains, intestinal worms and even helps to control spasms. Garlic may also help in lowering cholesterol levels.

Aspirin is a derivative that comes from the black willow tree, poplars and cottonwoods.

Dandelions contain a diuretic property that makes the weed mildly laxative.

Purple cone flowers, a plant that is native to Oklahoma, has received a lot of attention from the medical community lately, said Bidlack.

The flowers have a property that enhances the immune system, making it the subject of AIDS research.

Peppers have their own medicinal value, as well. Peppers contain capsaicin which is used for treatment of shingles, a dull form of chicken pox.

Aloe Vera, famous for easing the pain of sunburns, also protects the skin from harmful sun rays.

The spice ginger can be used in treatment of nausea as does the herb marijuana.

Marijuana is effective in reducing pain, nausea and stimulates the appetite as well.

Tea tree oil is a natural therapy for acne and ginseng is used as an anti-tumor and anti-viral medicine.

"About 40 percent of all drugs

are based on plants," said Olson.

"I think it's growing. There's a lot of answers in the rain forests that we will never know."

Illegal drugs, outlawed for their addictive qualities, also have many medicinal values.

Opium can be used as a painkiller as well as cocaine.

"Cocaine really has an effective tranquilizer," said Hoggard. "Cocaine is a wonderful chemical. It's only horrible the way people use it."

Basil can be used to treat acne and ulcers.

However, the healing power of herbs are still considered folklore by the FDA and only a few are considered legitimate.

"The FDA opposes herb research because (herbs) are free," said Bidlack. "All you do is grow it. What's that going to do to the pharmaceutical companies and the FDA?" "We eat a lot of artificial stuff," said Olson. " If people are going to supplement (diets) with vitamins, then why not supplement with herbs? I think a majority of all cures will come from plants."

Though herbs are mostly grown in the United States as a food crop, the medicinal value of herbs is being researched more and more, said Bidlack.

"What a lot of people call a weed may save your life one day," he said.

Grounds keepers prepare for Earth Day

By Terri King Student Writer Earth day will dawn upon the University of Central Oklahoma campus April 22, but not before the grounds crew gets Mother Earth ready for her place in the sun.

Dick Waite, assistant supervisor in charge of grounds, said that for Earth Day Centennial Square must be sanitized and mowed. In addition, the grounds crew is responsible for setting up the stage, chairs and banners and must inflate and deliver the "Earth ball."

But Earth Day is only one of many services and events that the physical plant grounds crew is in charge of.

"Grounds crew does set-up for events, in-house moving, dance events and anything having to do with student activities, asphalting, snow removal and de-icing. We take care of plants and remove insects and pigeons and scrub all droppings off sidewalks and clean up after football games. Other than that, we don't do anything," said

Waite.

Waite said the earth at UCO suffers somewhat, but that is not uncommon on an urban campus like this one.

Waite said more damage occurs to the campus as a result of nondirected student activity, like pedestrian traffic, than from planned events like Earth Day. Waite said that pollution is not a big factor on the UCO campus, but some problems are caused by such things as heat off of asphalt parking lots, and pedestrians and construction are often problematic to many of the plants here.

Smoking areas and trash around campus take the efforts of four or five people a full eight hours a day, every day, to keep the grounds around campus clean, Waite said.

Student labor and workers from the Department of Corrections are employed in this task, he added.

Waite said that the physical plant is given an almost unlimited budget to make and keep the campus beautiful. Approximately $3,800 a year is spent on annuals like flowers, bushes and trees, and

about $1,500 is spent on fertilizers and pesticides.

"If I can show the campus looks nice, and the greater the beauty of the campus, the more students we will attract to the university," said Waite.

Few pesticides are used because of complex Environmental Protection Agency regulations and what few pesticides are used are needed to combat such pests as

bag worms, aphids and red spiders, Waite said.

Waite said that, staring in May, there will be some trauma to the

campus over the next five years because of man-made obstacles due to construction for the implementation of the Master Plan.

UCO student manages spacey collection

By Heide Brandes Staff Writer Adam Harwood is spacey. He's even been to the moon; or, rather, his business often takes him to those who have.

He had an American flag he was selling for $6,000, a very special flag that had done what most people only dream of doing.

In fact, the easiest thing the flag, did was land on the moon's surface.

The flag was taken into space four times, travelled over 17 million miles and visited the moon.

The flag is not the only thing Harwood has sold that has been in space. He deals in everything ranging from astronauts' autographs to rare commemorative medallions.

He is a collector and dealer of astronaut and NASA memorabilia and , he said, it is a business that is working well for him.

Harwood, a UCO student, started out collecting autographs.

"When I was in sixth grade, we had a writing project," Harwood said. "We had to invite local celebrities. I wrote to senator Bob Dole. He wrote back a letter and thanked me for writing to him."

Though Dole could not make it to the class, Harwood said the return letter made him interested in autographs.

"The Universal Autograph Collectors Club had a get together every year," said Harwood. "It was a show. As an 11-year-old, looking at autographs by Lincoln, Marilyn Monroe and James Dean,

it was exciting. That got me interested in autographs."

Harwood began writing to former astronauts from the 1960's and then specialized in astronaut signatures which, he said, is harder than it sounds.

"First you have to know if the signature is genuine if you want to have any kind of collection," Harwood said. "It might be a forgery or a secretary might have signed it or it may be a rubber stamp. There's also this thing called an Autopen. It's a machine that has a mechanical arm that a pen can be attached to. You put in a tape and you sign your name.

The Autopen records the arm and it'll sign the same signature over and over."

The next step up from autographs was to collect items that had been in space, Harwood said.

"A lot of (astronauts) take things up in space with them," he said.

"They have a PPK - a Personal Preference Kit. It's a white backpack and they put any personal things they want in it like a wedding ring, an American flag, coins commemorating the flight, a pocket knife or his friend's pilot license."

Harwood gets many of his items by buying and trading from other dealers and through auctions.

Sometimes he even acts as a middle-man for an astronaut who is looking to sell.

"I did sell a flag that landed on the moon's surface for Ed Mitchell ( an astronaut)," he said. " First, I had to determine the price - I wanted to get the lowest price I could. I made the sale and it sold

I'm teaching Sunday school or social things. So I don't have a lot of time to devote to it."

Harwood added that his relationship with God has helped him more than anything.

"My faith in God, trusting in Him, has helped me,"he said.

"There was a point in January when I was involved in a major deal, a point where I was under full obligation because someone else wasn't fulfilling their end of the deal. I was in danger of a liability of $10,000. I had already been in a relationship with God and was getting to know him perCollector Adam Harwood shows his wares to his friend Dan sonally.

"The University is really fortunate because the city of Edmond has a large supply of water and has done an exceptionally good job of

Biology professors head greener campus project

By Michele Soh Staff Writer Creating a greener campus for the University of Central Oklahoma is part of a project headed by two professors in the biology department.

The project, conducted by UCO and the City of Edmond, aims to beautify Edmond and increase awareness of urban forestry through a grant from the U.S. and the Oklahoma Departments of Agriculture, Forest Services.

"I'm excited because I think this grant demonstrates how UCO and the City of Edmond can work together to improve the community," said Dr. Thieron Harrison,

chairman of biology.

Oklahoma The Beautiful Urban and Community Forestry Challenge Grant provided federal money to match the $6,000 contributed by UCO and $2,000 given by the City of Edmond for the beautification project, Harrison said.

"We received the grant at the same time the University was developing plans to improve the physical aspects of our campus, so it was a good tie-in with the master plan," he added.

Dr. Gloria Caddell, assistant biology professor, and Harrison are selecting and identifying trees to label on campus and at Hafer Park. They are also writing the

text for the interpretive centers at both sites.

"This project aims to increase public knowledge and awareness of the value of trees in urban settings, providing information that will alaow the public to recognize the trees of this area. The arboretum on campus will serve as a resource for teaching purposes as well as beautify the campus," said Caddell.

The trees will be labeled with permanent name plates having both the common and scientific names of the trees. U C 0 Assistant Supervisor of Grounds Richard Waite will supervise the planting and maintenance of trees on campus, as well as the installa-

tion of name plates and watering system, said Caddell.

The interpretive centers, located near the labeled trees, will show the location of the trees and include information concerning tree diversity, the benefits and values of forest trees in urban settings and the native woody vegetation of the area.

Name plates and interpretative centers will be installed by the end of June, said Harrison.

At Hafer Park, trees chosen to be labeled are at the children's playground and along the jogging track.

The UCO site planned for the arboretum is the area surrounded by the Administration Building,

Mitchell Hall and Howell Hall.

"We will create a small arboretum on campus, planting trees not found anywhere else on campus," said Caddell.

Both native and introduced woody plants will be planted, said Caddell.

Trees to be planted include the persimmon, which is native to Oklahoma., and Asian plants like the star and saucer magnolia, the Japanese maple and the weeping cherry.

"The initial grant was to buy trees. We are hoping to add shrubs and herbs to the arboretum over the years, making UCO as aesthetically beautiful as possible, said Caddell.
