Student receives award Hispanic scholarship granted to guidance counseling major

By Salina Nik Idris Staff Writer A graduate student of Central State University was awarded the Oklahoma Hispanic Professional Association (OHPA) Scholarship for superior academic performances, leadership and community involvement on April 10 at the One Bell Central Building, said Rosalba Cashion, the recipient for the award and a graduate student at CSU. There were five scholarships awarded to students from the University of Oklahoma, one from Southern Nazarene University and one from CSU, said Pat Fennell, president of OHPA. The scholarship was established in 1986 for the purpose of enhancing education for the Hispanic Society, Fennell said.

"What we do is to find uni-

versities that would match our funds for scholarships that would be given to Hispanic students," Fennell said.

"We try to identify the students in various universities through financial aid, minority student groups or however they are listed in the university. Then we call the university and ask if they would like to match our funds," Fennell said.

"So far there have been 12 scholarships awarded in the last three years. We gave one the first year, four the second year and seven this year," Fennell said.

With the help of student Rebecca Gutierrez, Cashion is trying to establish a Hispanic Student Association at CSU, Cashion said.

"We have not officially organized the club but we are in

the planning stage," she said.

Cashion is majoring in guidance counseling and will be graduating at the end of this year.

"It is an honor for me to have been one of the students selected, and I hope that soon I can be part of the effort of these programs that promote improvement and development of our society. I hope that programs like this can influence and encourage younger students to further their education," Cashion said.

The scholarship given for CSU was presented by James Noley, director of Minority Student Affairs and Sherri Hancock, director of student financial aid at CSU, Cashion said.

A banquet was given after the ceremony sponsored by Southwestern Bell, Cashion said.

"I was particularly interested in mathematics since a long time back," Owens cited as her reason for joining the Mathematical Association of America.

This year she became the fourth person from Central State University and the third woman to serve as a chairman in the organization's 51 years of history.

"I am currently preparing for a trip to Boulder, Colo., where I will represent the sectional organization at a national meeting," Owens said.

Next year she will try to hold a workshop in conjunction with the OklahomaArkansas Sectional meeting in Arkansas, she said.

Viewpoints Controlling litter individual's task State's beauty hidden by trash

By Karen McDermeit

Student Writer The very word Oklahoma brings to mind wide, open spaces. Unfortunately, those spaces are filled with trash!

The "pride of Oklahoma" is a phrase heard repeatedly. It cannot be said that Oklahoma isn't proud of its past, since much of that past is displayed in the form of litter.

Editorial Emphasis is placed on bringing tourists to Oklahoma, and it is true there is much natural beauty in this part of the country to attract tourists.

That beauty is, however, overshadowed by mounds of litter.

The Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) has made an effort to correct the litter

problem and some progress has been made. Surveys taken by the D.O.T. determined 17-34 year old, white males, driving pickups are the largest group of litter offenders. The "Don't Lay that Trash on Oklahoma" campaign is geared toward that group.

An "Adopt a Highway" program was initiated by D.O.T. and organizations throughout the state responded by making two year commitments to keep stretches of highway litterfree. But, it will take more than just a few groups of people fighting this problem.

"Don't Lay that Trash on Oklahoma" is a catchy slogan, but that is all it will be unless Oklahomans' realize controlling litter is each person's responsibility.

Management vital to computer use

By Darl DeVault

Guest Writer Productivity, a popular buzzword in today's business community, has been turned into a very gray area by cornputer office automation. With the advent of computers in the work place, measurability becomes extremely difficult and thus productivity, although the watchword in many industries, becomes difficult to quantify.

Computers are designed to improve data processing capability, while reducing costs, by requiring reduced time and materials to produce the same output. This is often the best case scenario, as human beings are resistent to change and subject to eccentricities.

Productivity centers on whether employers are able to realize a productive return on their investments in computer equipment.

My thoughts about productivity and computers are simply that acquiring the capability to do wonderful product and service enhancing things does not equal productivity in the final analysis.

Computers are used to aid in improving facility layouts, material handling systems and improve quality control while enhancing customer service. This can only be possible, if the power of automation is thoroughly understood and properly exploited by everyone

within the management structure. The worst thing that can happen in today's high-tech world is one uninformed executive to decide that training and updating computer application software is a waste of money.

Computers have the capacity to improve the working environment by relieving many workers of tedious, repetitious tasks. Previous to computers these tasks had mindnumbing and morale-crushing effect on workforces. The release from tedious and repetitious jobs can only be deemed productivity when those tasks are replaced by new and more challenging multi-tasking requirements to challenge the work force. Stress is created in the workplace when middle management doesn't adequately plan for the displaced time and effort originally required for the completion of labor-intensive projects. Just as most people don't want to be overworked, not challenging a conscientious workforce is every bit as bad for morale.

In the early days of computers, we heard that computers would replace many people; in effect, do away with their jobs.

This has proven to be wrong.

Companies—many of them foreign—harness the computers capabilities to produce goods and services at a reduced cost from what Americans can provide in the market

place. This is the mechanism that eventually strips many Americans of their jobs, not the computers themselves. It is the use of computers that determines whether they will enhance productivity, and it still remains to be seen if Americans can grasp this all important concept. This is a very subtle concept to expound, as I am laying the responsibility for this country's future in the

super competitive, global market place at the feet of a group that we don't hear about very often, middle management. The middle management of corporate America, more so than the highly recruited and highly compensated CEO's, will determine our ability to react to an ever changing marketplace with innovation and creativity.

Cheer team differs from pompon squad To the editor: This is in reference to the article, "Pompons support athletics," by Ms. Brown.

I hate to inform you, but there is a lot of difference between the pompon squad and the cheer team. As a member of the CSU cheer team, I can tell you firsthand that we spend many hours practicing and perfecting our pyramids and routines. This is also the first time that the cheer team has had three or more men, enabling us to be coed. We have sacrificed many weekends and weeknights supporting the athletic program.

We have pride in what we have accomplished and more importantly we have pride in our teams and Central State.

We have been on the sidelines

and courts supporting our athletes through the upsets and the victories.

And just how many basketball games did the pompon squad support? Routines and halftime specials are great crowd pleasers, but our first priority is the athletic teams that are competing. It is our responsibility to promote enthusiasm, attitude and the spirit that we are above the rest.

We would be more than willing to work with the pompons, but we need to remember and realize the fact that we are two entirely different organizations. Yes, we do need to work together to support the athletes and Central State, and be proud to wear the uniform of Blue and Gold.

So you see! There really is a difference! Robert York

Cadets preparing for summer camp

By Lori Aronson

Staff Writer Twenty-five ROTC cadets took part in field exercises at Lake Arcadia April 22, said Capt. Harry Thomas, military science instructor.

Then exercise consisted of patrolling and reconnaissance intended to prepare students classified as MS-III for advanced training this summer at Fort Riley, Kan., Thomas said.

The students began at 7 a.m. at Thatcher Hall, where they received patrol assignments and reconnaissance missions. They were then transported to a drop-off point to complete the exercise.

The role of trainers and opposition was taken by students who hold a MS-IV classification, which means they have already completed advanced training, Thomas said.

Dance auditions scheduled for Kaleidoscope troup Scholarships available

By Laurel Anquoe

Student Writer The department of health, physical education and recreation will hold auditions for the Central State University Kaleidoscope Dancers Company 1989-90 season at 2 p.m. April 28 in Room 20 of the Health and Physical Education Building.

Approximately 15 scholarships ranging from onequarter to full tuition waivers will be available for the upcoming season, said Jamie Jacobson, director of dance.

Two full tuition waivers will be awarded, she said.

The company performs all types of dance: modern dance, ballet, jazz, social dance, inter-

national and American folk, and theatre dance.

Students interested in auditioning should demonstrate proficiency in one or more of these dance forms, said Jacobson, but do not need experience in all.

Students do not need to choreograph a routine but instead will be taught four sections of dance repertoire for the auditions.

The modern dance segment will be taught by William Conrow, co-founder of StarDanceSwan Contemporary Dance Theatre and former dancer with the Barry Lynn Dance Company. A ballet combination will be taught by D'Ann Crain, former artist-in-

residence with the Oklahoma State Arts Council. The jazz segment will be taught by Jacobson. A tap combination will be taught by Kellie Coleman, CSU student and tap instructor at Applause Dance Studio.

Students may audition for the company without scholarship application. However, if a student wishes to be considered for one of the scholarships, he or she must bring a current high school or college transcript and three letters of recommendation.

Further information about the auditions may be obtained from Jacobson in HPE 26 or ext. 5231.

Math and stat department to host tours for students Plans ready for 'Math Awareness Week'

By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Central State University students considering mathematics as a major are invited to visit the math and statistics department during National Mathematics Awareness Week April 23-29, according to Dr. G. Kay Owens, dean of the College of Math and Science.

Students may tour the department, meet the faculty, and obtain information regarding career opportunities during the week, Owens said.

National Mathematics Awareness Week is sponsored by the American Mathematical Society, the Mathematical Association of America, and the Society of Industrial and

Exhibitions by art grads scheduled Graduating art students at Central State University will give a retrospective on their college careers during the Graduating Art Students' Exhibition April 23-May 10 in the CSU Museum of Art. An opening reception will be held 1-5 p.m. April 23 in the museum.

Each of the 11 graduating art students will take over a separate area of the museum, resulting in a combination of 11 one-person shows, said William Wallo, curator of the museum and assistant professor of art.

"There will be quite an array of works in terms of media involved," Wallo said.

Students participating in the show are Walker; Janet Burnett, Choctaw; Eleanor Cline, Edmond; Kevin Goodwin, Edmond; Anthony Jackson, Oklahoma City; Karen Kirby, Choctaw; Lacy Leverett, Oklahoma City; Tina Mansfield, Edmond; Rodney Sharpe, Edmond; Toni Turk, Oklahoma City; and Rick Westbrook, Tulsa.

Applied Mathematics all under the sponsorship of the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics, Owens said.

The theme of the week is "Mathematics: Discovering Patterns." Mathemeticians throughout the country will organize symposia, lectures, ca-

reer days and hosting other special events to celebrate the week, Owens said.

"The week is celebrated in order to direct attention to the importance of mathematics in today's technological society," Owens said.

Students' writings to be interpreted "Oklahoma Voices," a reading of works-in-progress from Central State University writing students, will be presented at 8 p.m. April 28-29 at the Carpenter Square Theatre in Oklahoma City.

The program is sponsored by the department of creative studies.

New York playwright Timothy Mason, the latest artist-in-residence in the creative studies department, will produce and direct the production with both student and area actors and actresses interpreting works.

The evening also will include an original score by Oklahoma City musicians Sean Cooper and Chris Morrison.

Scenes to be read have been selected from the play writing and screenplay writing classes taught by Mason.

"I am pleased that the stu-

dents are writing about what they know, and that is distinctly Oklahoma," Mason said.

He originally became involved in writing through the Minnesota Children's Theatre Co. when he was 15. Since that time he has had several plays published including "Levitation," "Bearclaw," "Only You" and "In a Northern Landscape."

More than 50 bands to vie in jazz fest

Psych department anniversaries set

By Kamal Mazlan

Staff Writer Alumni will celebrate two anniversaries on April 29, the 25th year of the CSU psychology degree and the 20th year of the CSU psychology department, said Dr. David Mitchell, psychology and personnel services instructor.

Mitchell said alumni are organizing several events to celebrate the dual anniversaries, including a 5-kilometer run and walk race and a special address by Dr. Logan Wright, past president of the American Psychological Association.

"Actually, the department got the alumni started early

this year because we wanted to develop a heritage of outstanding psychologists at Central State University, as an exemplary role model to the new students," Mitchell said.

The psychology degree at CSU, Mitchell said, was first introduced in 1963 and the CSU psychology department was established in 1968.

The department now has 13 full-time faculty offering undergraduate degrees in various disciplines of psychology and two master's degrees in psychology and community counseling. About 300 graduate students and 423 undergraduate students are enrolled this semester for degree

programs in the department, Mitchell said.

Mitchell said on April 29 four students from the department will be awarded annual prizes for outstanding achievement and service: Betty Harris, who is doing her master's degree in community counseling, won the CSU Graduate College's outstanding graduate student award; Howard Harris, who is pursuing a master's degree in research and academics, won the department's outstanding graduate student award; Lyn Walker, a psychology major, won the department's outstanding bachelor of arts student award; and Toni Schneider, a gradu-

Lady tracksters win District 9 Parent named women's track coach of the year

By Chris Dotson Student Writer Central State's womens track team received first place honors at the District 9 Track and Field Championships in Shawnee last Saturday, finishing ahead of second-place Langston University by a margin of 44 points, while Broncho tennis coach Paul Parent won the District 9 Women's Coach of the Year honors.

The Lady Bronchos placed many players high in their events as Amber Tilley won the javelin event with a throw of 123-1, and Anita Parker was third with a throw of 107-5.

In the long jump, Paula Ryan was first with a leap of 18-3 3/4, and Tilley placed second with a jump of 17-6 3/4.

In the discus, Juanita and Anita Parker placed first and second with throws of 118-0, and 115-9 respectively.

In the triple jump, Ryan won with a jump of 33-9 1/2, and Tilley finished second with a leap of 32-4.

CSU's Selenia Smith set a new meet record in the 200-meter dash with a time of 24.5 seconds. Smith also won the 100-meter dash with a 11.6 finish.

In the 800-meter run Lady Broncho Melanie Mills placed third with a time of 2:35.6.

Mills later won the 1500-meter run with a time of 5:21.8, while Mellisa Jones placed second in the 1500-meter, finishing in 5:29.2

Mills won the 3000-meter run with a time of 12:10.8, while teammate Kevette Smargiassi finished second with a time of 12:37.7.

"What we have on the girls team is 11 great atheletes," Coach Parent said. "The girls are all close and very good friends, and there is no animosity between them in competition. " The Bronchos men's team finished second behind Oklahoma Baptist, after several CSU team members had to compete at less than full strength.

"The guys knew coming into this meet we were going to need help from the other teams since some of our best runners are hurt," Parent said. "We competed very well; better than we thought."

In the high jump, CSU's Rick Traczyk won first with a jump of 6-8 inches.

Broncho John Dragoo won the hammer throw with an effort of 122-7.

In the 400-meter dash, Mark Davis placed second with a time of 48.1 seconds.

"We had some guys that were running tender, but I'm sure that if we were healty, we could have had a better meet," Parent said.

The CSU track teams will return to action April 27, at the Lone Star Conference Meet in San Angelo, Texas.

Tennis teams routed

by Abilene Christian

By Andrew Smith Student Writer Last Friday's tennis confrontation on the CSU courts with NCAA Division II secondranked Abilene Christian University left the Broncho men's team with a 9-0 shutout.

The men's team put up a fight, but Abilene's players overshadowed CSU's.

Freshman Steve Hedrick managed to win the second set, 6-7, but lost the first and third sets, 6-3, 6-4.

Sophomore Mont Roper fell in three sets, 7-6, 3-6, 6-3, winning also in the second set against Chris Collins of Abilene Christian.

Sophomore Jeff Colhmia fought through three sets only to lose to Brent Klappratt 6-3, 3-6, 6-3.

Junior Tom Schmit fell in two sets to John Walker of Abilene 6-3, 7-5.

Sophomore Joseph Santiago nearly pulled a victory in the first match, but fell to Lance Cowart of Abilene Christian 7-6, followed by a shutout in the second set.

Freshman Hank Pellegrini battled through two sets but could not keep up with Kurt Alkerson's strong offensive moves.

"If we had more luck, perhaps we could have won the three close sets, but we didn't," Broncho tennis coach Francis Baxter said.

"The final score certainly does not indicate our game," Baxter said. "We had close, three set games, but we couldn't get the victories we needed.

With the loss, the Bronchos end their regular season at 10-10.

The Central State women's tennis team was also

routed Friday by the Abilene Christian women's team 9-0.

"Say whatever you want in the paper," freshman Leslie Pullium said. "Use any kind of adjective you like. We were `killed,' smashed,' anything."

The Lady Broncho tennis team fell hard, struggling through two sets each, as they were whipped by the Abilene Christian women in both singles and doubles.

"We just got blasted!" Baxter said. "Pm glad we weren't playing the No. 1 team."

By Randy Anderson Sports Writer Central State's softball team hosted Oklahoma Baptist University in a doubleheader April 18 at the Softball Hall of Fame.

The 14th-ranked Lady Bronchos had trouble in the first game losing 2-1, but came back to claim a victory 6-5 in the second game.

Freshman Jacquie Stephens started on the mound for CSU in game one, and was unable to produce the victory.

The Lady Bronchos picked up their only score when freshman Rachael Testerman knocked in junior Trina

Ressler.

"We just couldn't produce any runs," said Coach Gerry Pinkston.

Sophomore Kelly Browning had the big bat for the Lady Bronchos, going 2-4 from the plate, but it was not enough as OBU scored the game winner and squeaked by 2-1.

"I was proud of Kelly's hitting. She's been in a hitting slump lately," Pinkston said.

In the second game senior Jane Kajs picked up the victory as the Lady Bronchos pounded out eight hits while scoring six runs.

Junior Trina Ressler put on a hitting show with three dou-

bles and four RBI. "Trina had a super game," Pinkston said. "She had several deep long-ball hits."

"I was very happy with the victory but we still need to work on all the errors we're committing," Pinkston said.

The Lady Bronchos will be in action again this weekend at the Softball Hall of Fame in the NAIA District 9 Tournament.

Anderson, a retired Edmond High School principal who won his championship at 123 pounds in 1936, remains fit at age 74, and continues to follow the CSU wrestling program.

Debator's discuss team's efforts The Central State University debate team has wrapped up its year as the third-ranked debate squad in the nation.

"It was really nice to make the national third place ranking," said team member Charles Mallard, a junior from Guymon. "We defeated famous schools by working harder than they did, and by the tradition we have at CSU. The coach and all the debaters that went before us helped to trailblaze."

As a student from a small high school, Mallard wasn't sure how far he could go in debate, but he said that he realized his full potential in the debate program at CSU. San - dy Carroll, a senior from Edmond, said motivation has been the key to the debate team's continued victories in state and national competition.

"Any school that overcomes an underdog situation must have an intense desire," Carroll said. "We had a lot of talent, but more than anything it was desire; we worked as hard as was necessary. If you have the skills and you want it more than anyone else, you can overcome all the barriers."

Carroll's personal contribution to the team effort was her speaking skills, an ability to persuade, her desire to help

new team members and an eagerness to share ideas with the rest of the debate squad.

"I'm glad I was involved," Carroll said. "I can now stand up in front of a thousand people and give a speech. I might sweat a little, but I'll get through it. I enjoy communicating with people. Debate has taught me self-esteem and assertiveness."

Former team captain Drew Duke, a senior from Edmond, said too many people are not aware of the kind of acheivement the team has made.

We compete with all the other universities without the benefit of being in any way protected by size," Duke said. "To be recognized at all is a huge accomplishment, much less to be as high as we're ranked."

"I often prefer to debate the big schools because we have a psychological edge; they don't expect a whole lot from Central State University, Oklahoma, and then we just slam them," Duke said. "Our team's contribution to the CSU tradition was one of setting a precedent for future teams to keep winning."

Duke said high school experience with superior debaters and two opportunities to attend national tournaments helped him gain the confidence

Student awarded top cadet honors

By Karl Knapp Student Writer

Central State University ROTC cadet, Gary Levine, received the General George C. Marshall Research Award this month, which is given annually to the outstanding military science (MS) cadet, said Capt. Harry Thompson, MS3 instructor.

Levine and 300 other cadets were picked for the award from 7,500 ROTC students nationwide, Thompson said.

Levine attended the awards conference April 12-16 at the Virginia Military Institute.

There, he received a certificate, an official biography of Gen. Marshall, and he met the Army chief of staff and other high-ranking military

officials.

Only one cadet from each school nationwide is selected for the award and sent to the conference. To be the outstanding cadet in MS4 the cadet must have completed an advanced camp and "must demonstrate those leadership and scholastic qualities which appeared in the career of Gen. Marshall," Thompson said.

Levine, 24, is from Del City.

He is the ROTC battalion commander and was previously an enlisted man for three years in the Regular Army. He will graduate in May with a degree in military science, then go to Ft. Riley in Junction City, Kan., for advanced training, said Capt. William Yeniscavich enrollment officer. ,

Corrections In the March 30 issue incorrect information was given to The Vista reporting that astronaut Shannon Lucid was a graduate of Central State University. Lucid did not attend or graduate from CSU. Also in the same issue, due to an editor's error, a story about the Greek system on campus gave the impression the article was unfavorable to the system. That was not the intent of the reporter.

In the April 18 issue, the article, Cheer team selects 7, inadvertently excluded Jonna Umdenstock as one of those chosen to be on the 1989-90 Coed Varsity Cheer Team.

The Vista apologizes for any inconvenience this may have caused our readers.

to join a famous college debate program.

"Also, the CSU administration provides financial support that a lot of much larger schools don't have," Duke said.

"We've traveled from Montreal

to Atlanta to Los Angeles; we've been everywhere testing our abilities against the best teams. We learned very quickly we were on the same level, and we've proved that."

Another important factor in

CSU's success, Duke said, has been the recruitment of the best debate students from Oklahoma high schools. He said much of the Oklahoma high school students who excel in debate go on to CSU.
