Professor to lead institute Walters proposes $400 million bond OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Gov. David Walters says Oklahomans interested in higher education should let their legislators know they support a proposed $400 million capital improvement bond issue.

He and other state leaders spoke during a higher education rally at the Capitol on Monday and all said it was up to the public to show that the bond issue was needed.

Walters first proposed a bond issue last year. He renewed the request this year and said most of the proceeds should go to higher education.

"Let's get this done," Walters said.

Reherman named director of Nigh Institute; New building for state government planned

By Allen Norbury Staff Writer

University of Central Oklahoma president-elect George Nigh announced the new director for the Nigh Institute of State Government Tuesday.

Carl Reherman, a UCO assistant professor of political science and former mayor of Edmond, was handed the reins of the fouryear-old institute.

"I would like for UCO to move from a regional university to an urban university.

The opportunities are there, we've uncovered many," Reherman said.

Also named as co-directors were Bob Funston and Mike Hunter, both adjunct political science professors at UCO. Nigh called upon the professors to expand and redefine their commitment to UCO. All three men will continue to teach, he said.

As for Nigh, he said he would continue to be a guest lecturer at the institute.

Nigh also announced plans for a state government institute research center. He said he wanted to enlarge the Nigh Institute

and build a new building for training of nonstudents for state government services.

"South of the University Center I can see a nationally recognized government institute," Nigh said.

Nigh said the institute would benefit UCO students in the role it would play in bringing lecturers, programs and papers for research purposes. "It could train students as well," he said.

Teenagers charged with first-degree murder, arson

By Allen Norbury Staff Writer

Oklahoma Victim's rights increasing

A 16-year-old and a 13-year-old have been charged with first- degree murder and first-degree arson in connection with the death of Dr. Gerhard Kallienke, a University of Central Oklahoma German professor.

Jacquline James, 16, will be tried as an adult in the case, prosecutors said. Shariell Brisby, 13, will face arraignment Friday, and prosecutors said they will also attempt to certify Brisby as an adult.

The two suspects deny the allegations against them and claim Kallienke payed them for sexual favors, investigators said.

Authorities said the suspects poured lighter fluid on Kallienke's body and set fire to it.

Fire officials claim to have found traces of lighter fluid on the clothing of both suspects during a search of their homes.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The state Senate has sent to the governor a bill that would let victims of violent crimes or the victim's survivors testify about how they were affected.

The Senate author of Senate Bill 816 is Brooks Douglass, R -Oklahoma City, whose parents were killed by two men in 1979.

The bill, approved 47-0 Monday, would let a victim or survivor make a written or oral statement before sentencing about the financial, emotional, psychological and physical effects of a violent crime.

Teens evacuate Channel 9 station

Inside:

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A police chase that ended on the front lawn of television station KWTV resulted in the arrests of two teen-age boys.

The building had to be evacuated for about 30 minutes Monday while officers searched for one of the boys.

The 15-year-old was captured on the station roof; the driver, 16, had been arrested immediately.

4. Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end.

5. Give us any chance, we'll take it. Read us any rule, we'll break it. We're gonna make our dreams come true ... Doin' it our way.

6. Happy trails to you. Until we meet again. Happy trails to you.

Cartoonist explains view

I

am writing this letter in response to views and voices already heard here at the Vista before the release of Tuesday, April 28's editorial cartoon. For those of you who did not see it, it had a man hoisting a baby by the legs, proclaiming "I'm sure we can salvage something."

When seen sitting on the editor's desk, this cartoon caused many people to gasp in horror.

"How cruel!" they would exclaim.

My response to that? "Good. You see my point."

A child is not a salvage yard.

The precious organs that keep a small heart beating for even one nanosecond cannot be taken for granted. I have read many articles

on the Baby Theresa case and I understand the parent's anguish and their desire to have their child make a difference.

I also understand that when we begin to look at a child as an Endurance Autoparts, then we have moved into a very dangerous time.

When you place such casualness, and believe me, some would possess casualness, on human life, what comes next? Yes, I realize it already exists with the adoption rate running rampant all over the world — but that is not the issue here.

Infant organs are rare, yes. But doctors also misdiagnose. Imagine your horror if you found out your child, your creation, your

baby, had just been carved up and shipped off because of some doctor's incompetence. Also you cannot tell me that somewhere in this world a man does not exist who would not be happy to see a child as an old Buick. Pay anyone enough money and he will do anything.

So perhaps this will quiet the angry voices already heard here. I hope not. When we disagree, we are forced to form opinions and that is good, even if our opinions are different. I cannot force you to change your mind...but now you know mine.

THE VISTA

Rhapsody's out of tune Boulevards and water towers aside, Garth ain't bad; `intellect defender' advises avoiding Route 66 ou need to start using better judgement when inviting guest columnists to write for the Vista. Our school paper is a great training ground for journalism students, but many of your editorials lack the intelligent substance and professional demeanor necessary to make valid points.

Julie Taylor's essay on Garth Brooks in last Thursday's paper was nothing more than a boorish rhapsody of sarcasm and a waste of reading time. I have felt this way about other issues presented in previous columns, but Taylor's Garth bashing proves that she is either overly opinionated about petty issues or is too lazy to analyze the important topics that affect us in our everyday lives. I may be beating a dead horse, though, because the majority of letters written by students consist of mindless ranting and raving that only serve to blow off steam and making valid points.

y

I am not a Garth Brooks fan. I respect his music and appreciate his contributions to American culture, but I think I am out to defend readers' intellect more than Garth himself. Taylor uses the word "worship" three times to express how fans admire him, but Garth is definitely not the fourth person of the Holy Trinity. I also doubt that the youth of Yukon are being scandalized or even being discouraged from attaining goals that fail to grasp similar fame. The rewards of your success are not having your name in lights or on a water tower. All achievers crave recognition, though, whether from scoring in a class, leading the sales department for the month, or sharing musical talents with millions of appreciating Americans. Yukon people are not trying to crown Garth; they are simply excited to be able to share in the spotlight of a major hometown celebrity. Let them name a major street after him. I would say that Yukon resi-

dents are just as proud of Garth as Oklahoma civil rights activists are of Martin Luther King. Garth is evidently more popular, though, because he is not even dead yet.

I am not from Yukon, and Julie Taylor did not indicate that she was either. I would suggest that she stand off and let the people of Yukon revel in the national attention that one of their own sons has brought them. With a few more years and a heavy dose of brain power, Taylor may succeed in becoming editor of Newsweek or chief correspondent for the Associated Press. Maybe then she will get her name on a hometown street sign in her honor. Until then, I recommend that the Vista staff to deliver more valuable information, and that Julie Taylor tries to remain in a good mood by staying off Route 66.

Respectfully, —Johnny Hochgraefe

Garth don't neither wear rhinestones

I

n response to Julie Taylor's column concerning Garth Brooks I only have one thing to say —"Lighten up." It is amazing to me that any self-respecting Oklahoman would want to detract from a home state boy who has hit the big time. Since the 1920s Oklahomans have been considered, by many, anything but "big time."

In many states being called an "Okie" would definitely be considered fighting words. So why, when Oklahomans finally have someone to look up to and proudly claim as one of their own, would you want to bash the most famous Oklahoman since Will Rogers?

Next, your article makes me wonder if you may have been living with your head in the sand for the past two years because GarthMania has hit the whole nation,

not just Yukon. His record breaking releases and sold out concerts have set the music business on its ear.

Maybe if you could open your closed mind and look past the cowboy image (not that this is bad) you would be able to actually hear Garth's music. He is not, as you say, merely "bars, booze, and babes." Garth's music is about people and their experiences in the real world. Anyone can relate to Garth's music. Garth Brooks, Clint Black, and Alan Jackson have totally revitalized country music and brought it to a higher plane. This shining star is definitely something for ALL Oklahomans to be proud of.

What is even more important is that, throughout his entire rise to fame, Garth has never forgotten

his roots and has remained accessible to his multitudes of fans.

Furthermore, he has also lent a helping hand to many needy causes (ex. Farmers At Risk, and Muscular Dystrophy). Garth Brooks is clearly a man with his priorities straight as well as one of music's greatest superstars. Don't get me wrong, Garth is by no means a perfect person but, he is truly a person in whom Oklahomans can take pride. Besides, isn't there a lot worse things kids could aspire to be than a "country singin`, Wrangler wearin`, rhinestone-studded" RICH "cowboy?"

—A proud Oklahoman (who has never seen Garth wear rhinestones)

Neurotic ramblings finale

T

his is it, I promise. My last ever bit of column for the semester. Of course, since this is the last paper of the semester, it makes the first point moot.

Given that I survive finals week, I'll soon be off to Glacier National for fun in the summer.

My older brother will be along for the ride, and if we don't kill each other on the way up, we're looking at one productive summer.

I'll be sitting at my typewriter, working on my fiction, and he'll be snapping some shots of the wildlife for his portfolio.

The fun part of the summer is the orientation, in which we are exposed to photographs of

photographers and tourists who got a wee too close to bears. Grizzlys, that is.

I don't know if you've ever seen one of these beauties in life, but they look like a cocker spaniel with Arnold Schwarzennegger 's body. Just Nature's way of saying "Go ahead, pet the cute walking disaster area."

But they are sorta cute in a sadistic way. Anyone who is not afraid of these awesome beasts, should have their head examined. By Dr. Hannibal Lecter, if at all possible. Because what's left of them is probably what he would dine on.

But back to the main point of

this column. Well, actually, there is no main point of this column. I'm just having fun with the space that I have.

A couple of extremely biased opinions. Julie Taylor hit it right on the nose on the Garth Brooks issue. Not that I particularly like or dislike Garth, but things go too far in hero worship. Do you know how many times I've been told that Garth went to OSU? Like I really care. But I think we need to get realistic about who our heroes are. Then again, my hero is Opus the penguin.

On living in sin Address change bulletin tops Grandma's teeth as bombshell At Easter lunch, between the baked ham and strawberry shortcake, I told my parents and nine other family members that I am moving in with my boyfriend. I'm not sure why I picked that exact moment to drop the bombshell of the year on my kinfolk, but one thing's for sure — I really know how to liven up a family gettogether.

This little announcement caused more commotion than my grandmother losing her dentures during last year's Easter egg hunt, which — believe me — was a major ordeal.

Column My change of address bulletin received mixed reactions.

My mother's eyebrows hit the ceiling, my dad took a big swig of Dr. Pepper and my brother, for the first time of the day, was speechless. My aunts looked at each other with that I'm-glad-she's-not-my-kid look. My aunt's boyfriend, a former minister, bowed his head in prayer while I looked around the table, waiting for somebody to say something.

No one did. Finally, after about 73 silence-filled seconds, I couldn't take it anymore.

"Well, what do you think, mother?" Mom did what she's best at — passed the buck. "I don't know — let's ask your father what he thinks." Dad handled it well, all things considered. "Well, uh, I think she's old enough to make her own decisions and, if she wants to do it, then she should. But I do think she needs to take those

daisy stickers off her back car window — she's going to have a wreck with those obstructing her view." You can always count on dear`ol dad to change the subject in times of crisis.

As the conversation turned to automotive problems, I smiled. My parents might not always approve of the things I do or the way I do them, but ihey never fully freak out or tell me I'm doing the wrong thing.

When I got my tattoo last summer, my mon and dad laughed.

When I got my nose pierced last month, they managed to get used to it by the time I let it grow back. When I started my drum lessons, they helped me look for a set and supported my musical curiosity. And now that I'm going to be residing with my boy of choice, they will deal with it in their own way, I'm sure.

Yesterday, my mom called me to fill herself in on the events of my life. We chatted about school and money and food and family members, but never talked about my moving plans. Right before we hung up, she said she and dad had bought me and Jason a really cool chair at Mathis Brothers for our new house. As I thanked her, I knew this chair was their way of giving me the thumbs up and telling me they love me and want me to truly be happy. And now that they've given me their approval, I finally can be.

One more....

Don't like country music?

Get the heck outa Dodge!

I

do not know where Ms. Julie Taylor is from, but I am proud to say that I was born and raised in Oklahoma. And yes I listen to Garth Brooks. I have never written to the Vista before but this made me really mad. Ms. Taylor, surely there are more things to complain about than Garth Brooks. If you knew anything about him you might change your mind, or maybe not. If you don't like country music, don't listen. If you don't like streets named after Garth Brooks don't drive on them.

And please stay out Yukon.

Maybe Oklahomans can be proud of something else like smog (no, that's L.A.) maybe murders ( no, that's Washington, D.C.) maybe drugs (no, that's Miami) maybe crime (no that's New York City). If I were you Ms. Taylor I would find something worthwhile to cry about. Ms. Taylor, maybe you should move?

Nigh also wanted to underscore the fact that the institute will not take from government funds.

"We want to hit the ground running trying to solicit funds," he

said.

In order to do that Nigh said they were talking to private foundations and trust authorities for possible fundings. "We hope by the end of this calendar year we can announce we have the funds," he said.

Group offers activity

By Maribeth Davis Student Writer The Catholic Campus Ministries (CCM) of the University of Central Oklahoma are reaching out to the Catholics on campus in order to expand and grow spiritual 1 y , creating a Catholic atmosphere.

CCM offers Mass with Father Joseph Jacobi on the first Monday of each month, and a small faith community program every other Wednesday night. Both programs meet at 9 p.m. in the campus YChapel north of Mitchell Hall..

"Although CCM scedules events in the Y-Chapel, we are in the process of searching for a permanent place to call home for our ministries." said Alyson Hutcheson, a junior psychology major.

CCM sponsors various activities like a social event once a month so members can participate in different forms of entertainment, like movies or bowling.

The Catholic College Students of Oklahoma, of which CCM is a member, attends an annual retreat in the spring hosted by different campuses.

"We are very honored that CCM of UCO will be hosting the Oklahoma all-college retreat for the first time next spring," Hutcheson said.

CCM also sponsors an annua'

retreat for UCO members which usually takes place in the spring.

After being inactive since 1982, CCM was officially recognized as a UCO organization in October 1990, by Dr. Dudley Ryan; Dean of Student Services.

The restoration began with the three founding members; Alyson Hutcheson, Tracy Sligar, and Troy Vance, who came from very active Catholic youth groups and found nothing at UCO, Hutcheson said.

In order for CCM to be recognized by UCO, they had to write a constitution to define who they are, what they offer and recruit a faculty sponsor.

Dr. Virginia Peters, professor of health, physical education, recreation and dance, serves as faculty sponsor and has been a great help, Hutcheson said.

CCM currently has six peer ministers who take care of planning and organizing events for the 20-30 active members.

The UCO Catholic Campus Ministries is based out of Edmond's Catholic Church of St. John the Baptist. Father Jacobi is the spiritual adviser and liaison between CCM and St. John's.

The Diocese of Oklahoma City funds CCM to minister to Catholic students, doing away with the need for membership fees.

To inquire about CCM call Hutcheson at Ext. 4052 or Beth Sessa at 341-6145. V

Cheer team named UCO porn pon squad members picked for 1992-93 squad College Students

By Shene Murphy Staff Writer

By Shene Murphy Staff Writer

The competition of the University of Central Oklahoma Coed Cheer team was held April 23, in the Broncho Fieldhouse.

The seven new members who joined the 1992-93 squad are: Kristi Wilkerson, Genny Understock, Joy Coughran, Carrie Fillmore, Stacie Fillmore, Emily Bible, Aaron Cox, Wes Cossey, Darrin McKelvey, Dennis Coon, Colton Bryant, and Christopher Hollars.

Deanna Land, squad sponsor said in the three years she has been here this year was the largest turnout for male cheerleaders.

"There are people who frown upon male cheerleaders, but we are very excited and supportive of UCO events," said Aaron Cox, male cheerleader.

"We will not have a fall tryout for the squad because the squad wanted a chance to go to summer camp as a completed squad," Land said.

Land said if anything happened to a member of the squad over the summer, there will be an alternate chosen to fill the position in the fall. V

Ware off to NFL

By Justin Harper Sports Editor Derek Ware's draft day aspirations were only somewhat met Monday when the Phoenix Cardinals made him the 175th player taken in this years NFL, draft.

Surely Ware was happy to be selected, however, he was projected to be a third or fourth round choice and but lasted until the seventh. And in a sport where ego's are as high as salaries, Ware took a blow to both.

A player drafted in the third round stands to make two to three times as much as a seventh rounder, the difference in signing bonus alone is in the six digit range.

"I'll be excited anywhere I go," Ware contended before the draft. "I just have to go take care of business."

That Ware figured he'd go higher in the draft is no surprise, most players who aren't picked in the first two rounds usually make that claim.

Ware's reported "Questionable attitude" (He was involved in a credit card scandal at Texas A&M) could have caused the drop in value he suffered, or maybe his play or potential didn't warrant a higher pick.

"I felt they didn't use me to my potential at UCO," Ware said. "But I had fun, more fun there than at A&M." Ware is the second Broncho player in as many years to be chosen in the draft, linebacker Keith Traylor was a third round selection of the Denver Broncos last year. V

Personalities show through The personality of a person can generally be revealed by a person's car. As I walked through the sea of cars in the UCO parking lot the other day, I noticed the wide variety of cars in the parking lot.

An old brown Cutlass, with paint scraped off here and there, caught my eye. The inside was cluttered with cigarettes, clothes, books, an uMbrella, etc. The man, I say man because it had a manly look about it, obviously has no home. He sleeps, eats and lives in his car. He was probably hiding under the seat the other day.

In the faculty parking lot I noticed an old gray station wagon.

The tires were worn, the paint was

Bumper stickers

beginning to peel off and rust, and the entire back window and bumper was covered with bumper stickers. The bumper stickers all had Bush on them. The owner of the car was obviously a Republican. Either that, or he was covering up other inadequacies of his/ her ride. I'll bet the former, because he/she wouldn't hide inadequacies. The owner knows the car doesn't look great. The owner is simply content that it gets him to work and back.

—Brad Neece

Cars ranging from Yugos to Stealths were scattered through the parking lot.

"Support Our Troops" and "Stars and Stripes Forever" were a couple of the messages seen on bumper stickers on these cars showing patriotism and support of the recent Gulf War. Sorority and fraternity stickers also adorned some of the cars.

A car with three pennies lying in the front seat and a Candyland game and dolls in the back must have belonged to a parent.

All of these descriptions along with nearly vacant faculty parking lots show the atmosphere at the University of Central Oklahoma and the differences of UCO students.

—Jessica Danker

Peace of mind?

As I walk past the glittering Jaguars, BMWs and Mercedes, that pesky feeling that I've forgotten something overcomes me.

Did I lock my keys in the car? Did I forget a life or death assignment? Golf clubs!

That's it!

Wait a minute, now, this isn't any country club parking lot. It's UCO. I feel relieved, because I didn't bring enough money to tip the caddy.

Peace of mind restored, I can continue past the daddy-bought CRXs, Storms and Preludes, chanting a soothing MantraSentra good...Sentra practical...Sentra paid for....

It's 8:37 a.m. now, the student has had enough and begins to plot the proper way to end the dog's life.

The first step, the student ensures no one is watching; all appears clear.

The second step is proper aiming. The target must be positioned under either of the front wheels. In doing so, the student ensures proper tread mark placement.

Next, the student swerves a little before hitting the target. This way, it appears to potential witnesses that the student made an honest attempt to miss the dog.

Finally, the student finishes the job by not leaving the dog half alive in the parking spot to be hit by another vehicle later on in the day. The student backs up and positions the rear wheel on the target, then quickly thrusts his foot upon the accelerator. This properly finishes the job.

(If UCO had more parking, students would stop going around killing dogs.)

—Cynthia Kreiner

Full or empty?

The smell of carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide lingers in the air as the parking lot becomes void of people yet full of cars.

There are red ones, green ones and bent ones. Some are very nice, a symbol to those who drive it.

Others are transportation for a student who struggles to survive.

It takes money to make money.

So the student who spends heavily to maintain an automobile to move from home to school to work is just an investment into the future.

One other point, the student who comes to class late and consequently can't find a parking space should not be so concerned with the place, but the half mile trek to the classroom. When a human and an automobile meet, the human is going to lose, and so the investment is gone.

—Allen Norbury

There is one parking spot left and it's by a University of Central Oklahoma student's 8:40 a.m. class. It's 8:35 a.m. now and if the student does not make it to class on time the instructor considers "being late" an automatic absence.

The student has already missed or been late a total of 14 times. This of course means "one more" and the department policy will substitute the student's "B" to an "F." The student is graduating this spring and this class is a requi rement.

The student rushes to get the parking spot and just before turning in there appears a dog. The dog is sitting in the parking spot and ignores the howl of the student's horn.

It's 8:36 a.m. now and the clock is ticking in the student's head.

His dream of graduating begins fading away.

The student suddenly steps out of the car and approaches the dog to remove it, but before the student can do anything the dog begins to growl and show his sparkling "yellows."

Space searching The sound of gravel under your tires, grinding on your nerves.

Parking lots at UCO cause this affect as you search for your space.

Driving down the lanes of cars you see Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, New Jersey, Kentucky and Oklahoma license plates.

There are nice cars and not-so= nice cars, but no spaces. Looking over to your right you spot a space, a space among many other empty spaces. You drive to the lot and see the sign "Staff Parking." The little glimmer of parking hope is gone, gone to staff. Pulling-out into the line of traffic, you see despair and anger on the faces of other parking space hunters. "If I only left 15 minutes early, I would be in class. now, but instead, late again."

—Daniel Whiteman

Silent speakers The cars in the UCO parking lot are a testament to the variety of students inhabiting the campus daily.

They speak the personality of their owners.

Some cars say their owners are parents, some speak of the bratty teens and others brag that their owners are part of the classy upper-class.

The neatness of the owners are

If only cars could really talk, what secrets they would tell.

"Hey, babe! Nice lower unit!"

Subtle is the method of today's women. Some believe we cannot feel the laser beam coming from their eyes as they scan slowly up our legs, that we do not notice the glances pulled up from us when we look up from our work.

Subtle is not better. Does this mean I would like it more if every woman was as vocal as your normal man? Well, no.

Truthfully, it would probably make me uncomfortable to know that my legs look really great in my shorts. A whistle would send a shudder up my spine...or so I think. I just might say "thank you," and add a length to my stride.

• •

Women. The shy doves of our time. They exist in a world of pink flowers and puffy clouds...or so my dear friend, managing editor Kathy Karr, would have us believe. They are totally unaware of man's wolfish ways...they are surprised by our remarks.

Okay, I admit chivalry in this age has basically been put on the shelf. It is a strange creature suffering at the sword of male indifference. Maybe there are times when we should keep our thoughts to ourselves. But there's just something in grouping together as men that invokes the male's deepest, neanderthalic urges. Our boisterous clamorings are just some type of bonding we participate in.

"If only men wouldn't be so loud aobut it...if only they'd keep it to themselves." Well, I have news for you. It really wouldn't make any difference.

Women pretend that we don't know what "I need to go to the powder room, you want to go with me?" really means. But we do. Do you believe that we don't suspect that it doesn't take 20 minutes to finish your business? Do you think we don't pick up on the small, inside giggles that you trade as you come towards the table?

Moments such as that make men feel as uncomfortable as women feel when we yell

Managing Editor Sexism, chauvinism. Just what the heck do these "isms" really mean? Where do you draw the line between kidding and being a totally offensive gutter-minded icky pig? Does anybody know? Does anybody really care?

Well, yes, as a matter of fact, some people do care. Of course, these people are usually women.

But if those of the strange and elusive male species would take the time to understand that what they think is funny can drive women to the brink of homicide quicker than PMS, the problems of war, hunger and poverty would be solved, and the world would be a better place to live.

Column

It's odd to women that just a glimpse of the female form can drive men to salivate, wink at each other and nod, and giggle as if they were back in the junior high school locker room. Of course, women express their own appreciation of a nice set of male buns in a much more sensitive, tasteful and

Truth is, we all dig a good specimen of the opposite sex.

We can call it sexism if we want...or we can call it art appreciation. So, maybe guys shouldn't yell "Yo, hot mama!

I want to tune your piano!" But then again, maybe women should accept it for what it is...a really overdone compliment.

We can bash each other verbally until time ends. We will never agree on the appropriate "bird-dogging" methods. We can, However, try to understand each other's sensitivities. Because we will never change.

Guys will always yell and girls will always go to the bathroom in groups of two, four or 20.

That's just the way it is.

subtle way. We wait until we get alone in the restroom and make such remarks as "Doesn't he have the cutest butt?" and "I wish he would walk across the room more often and just a little more slowly."

Men don't behave this way.

They blurt out their urge to merge at the drop of a hat, and it makes women uncomfortable to have to actually hear that men are slaves to carnal cravings.

Women like to pretend that things are nice and neat, and nothing is more unnerving than having a close male friend, whom you have never thought about in any kind of sexual terms, turn to you and say "Gee, that Maggie from `Northern Exposure' has got one great pair of hooters."

Hearing remarks to that effect slap women in the face with the facts of life. And a group of men together in the same room is akin to a sexual Armageddon, especially if one or two women happen to be present.

Men bring out the worst in each other. Words can't express the disillusionment a woman feels when

she hears a man whom she thought was sweet and sensitive sit in the corner with a known pig and whisper graphic and grotesque remarks about female bodily fluids and various sexual positions that are helpful when you have a bad back.

So, yes, some of us gals are willing to admit it. Though this is the age of self-help books, 12-step programs and "Oprah," we really do not want to know what men are really thinking. The reality is much too frightening. To think that the men you work with, the professors who teach you, and, God forbid, maybe your own

Column father think in any kind of sexual terms is just way too, for lack of a better word, gross.

So my advice to men is this.

Don't only keep your hands to yourself, but for the sake of good relations between the genders, confine your thoughts to the locker room. Leave us alone in our misty water-colored world where sex is a mysterious, romantic nongraphic happening, and we'll all be a lot better off.

Townsite cases now available The Oklahoma townsite case files are documents accumulated by the federal land offices following the great Land Run of 1889 and subsequent land openings in Oklahoma Territory. Many of the lands claimed by settlers were involved in ownership disputes.

When in time the resulting court cases were settled, the original case documents were deposited in the National Archives in Washington D.C., and the branch office of the archives in Fort

tional Archives, the University of Central Oklahoma has just completed the microfilming of over 80,000 Oklahoma townsite case file documents. These materials are being indexed by UCO students, thus providing interested researchers better access to the Worth. Included in these documents are townsite maps, hearing transcripts, deeds, town meeting minutes and records, photographs, letters and depositions.

The preservation of the Okla-

homa townsite case files was a major goal of the founders of the library's Oklahoma Collection when it was established in 1981-82. Due to the encouragement and support of university and state officials and administrators and the cooperation of the Nahistory the townsite case files contain.

For more information about the additions to the Oklahoma Collection in Evans Hall, contact Mary Bond, ext. 2885. V

College dedicates tree Science building Tuesday.

By Roger Groce Staff Writer In addition to the formal retirement ceremonies held for Dr. Bill Lillard, president of the University of Central Oklahoma, the College of Mathematics and Science included one of its own.

A Bartlett pear tree was dedicated in honor of Lillard and planted beside the Coyner Health

The University of Central Oklahoma Art Department is presenting a graduating student art exhibit through May 8 entitled "One Hip Exhibit." Art students graduating this spring or summer are given the chance to show their work a final time. About 20 students are participating in the show, which is on display in UCO's art museum. Works include styles and techniques ranging from graphic design, acrylics, ceramics, watercolors and mixed media. Pictured above is Kyle Malzahn work in pastel, "Portrait of Self. "(Photo by Mark Zimmerman)

"As we plant this tree, I personally cannot think of a more appropriate gift," said Dr. Bill Caire, assistant dean of the College of Mathematics and Science.

Caire, Dr. David Hart, retired college dean, and Dr. G. Kay Owens the current college dean, spoke to about 100 faculty and administrators at the dedication.

The tree represents positive

changes the university has undergone during the past 17 years of Lillard's administration, Owens said.

Lillard said he felt very positive about the dedication and felt very at home among all those who were present. He also said he looks forward to his retirement and will think of UCO on July 1 when he and his wife are traveling in Europe. V

Perot reveals future ideas No secret service, no life in the White House, Perot says that money does not interest him DALLAS (AP) — Ross Perot says voters should expect an unconventional and "very active" campaign if he runs for president as an independent, which the Texas billionaire says he may do even if he fails to get on all 50 state ballots.

"Common sense would prevail" if a massive petition drive comes up a state or two short, even though he earlier vowed to not run unless his name won a spot on every ballot, Perot said in an interview.

Sounding increasingly like a candidate, Perot said he would actively seek support from minorities, steer clear of negative television advertising and avoid the "show business, mud wrestling (and) tricks" that he said taint other presidential campaigns.

In a wide-ranging interview, at the office where he oversees his multi-billion dollar computer service and real estate holdings, Perot said:

• His wife, Margot, would not play an active role in such a campaign nor in his administration if he were elected. "She wouldn't want to," he said. Hillary Clinton and Barbara Bush both have actively campaigned for their husbands.

• He hasn't decided whether to request Secret Service protection if he becomes a candidate. "Off the top of my head, I wouldn't want it. I don't like to be surrounded by people."

• If he became president, he would spend much of his time away from Washington "dealing with real people." The White House is "a better office than a place to live."

• Even though his plans for reducing the $400 billion annual deficit may be flawed, as some economists suggest, they still offer a better starting point than President Bush's proposals. "I think I could pull more numbers out of my head in two minutes than he could get

house a national campaign staff.

But the Dallas electronicsindustry magnate insisted he still has not made a final decision. "I am not a candidate. Volunteers are still circulating petitions to see if I will be a candidate," he said.

On his wealth, estimated at between $2.5 billion and $3.5 billion, Perot said he never really "had any interest in money ... It's kind of interesting to wind up with all this stuff." V

By Shene Murphy Staff Writer The Oklahoma Perot Petition Committee will hold a meeting at 7:30 p.m. at Tom Hoch Interior Design located at 3601 S. Broadway in Edmond for requesting petitions to place H. Ross Perot's name on the presidential ballot in Oklahoma for the November election, said John Atkisson, state treasurer for the Perot Petition Committee.

The meeting will be open to the general public and to anyone interested in circulating petitions or offering other means of support.

In order to have an official ballot number, Perot must round up 35,132 signatures by July to get him on the ballot, Atkisson said.

According to a report which stated he would run for president if supporters put his name on the ballot in all 50 states, he said he would spend up to $100 million of his own money if he were to wage such a campaign.

Perot hasn't stated his stand on any issues but during a television interview, he stated, "He believed it's a woman's choice," concerning the issue on abortion.

The Texas billionaire was born June 27, 1930, in Texarkana, Texas. He has been married to Margot for 35 years. They have five children, four grandchildren and are looking forward to the births of two more this year.

If there is anyone who would like to make a contribution or has any questions, please contact John Atkisson at 272-1757 or 272-1759. V

One-man news bureau finds a different slant

By Pam Thurman

Staff Writer Arnold Hamilton is a one-man news bureau for The Dallas Morning News' Oklahoma City office.

For the past four years Hamilton has driven, and occasionally flown, to any area in Oklahoma or Kansas to cover major breaking new stories, returned to the office and written the story, edited it, filed it with the newspaper via computer modem, and then started the process over again.

Hamilton said at first he worried he wouldn't find enough news in the state to keep him busy, but the truth is there are more than enough stories to keep him busy.

He said he does a lot of reading to stay informed about what is happening in the area.

"I read everything I can get my hands on. I'm flooded with stories, and I can't keep up with all that I need to do," Hamilton said.

Hamilton termed his work "a slice of life in Oklahoma," and said he tries to "hit major breaking stories all across the state as well as work on "in depth" stories that show the big picture and give the reader greater detail and more facts about a story.

"I would say that half of my stories end up on the front page, and the other half go in the 'Texas and Southwest' section of The Dallas

r _____

Mall

Morning News, which considers itself to be the voice of the South, Hamilton said.

The Dallas Morning News has bureaus in El Paso, San Antonio and Houston among other cities, and has a circulation of 10,000, he said.

Hamilton said he covered the recent news story of aborted fetuses found burned in a field, and was surprised by the way The Daily Oklahoman covered the story.

He gave the story a "broader slant," and put it into the context of how it might affect the whole abortion issue. He interviewed people who were pro-life, and others who were pro-choice as

well as doing a "police story" like The Daily Oklahoman.

His father was in the military and stationed at Tinker Air Force Base when Hamilton was in high school. The first journalism job he had was working for The Oklahoma Journal, he said.

"I did everything from cover Friday night prep football to writing obituaries just to work there, just to have my foot in the door."

Hamilton is a graduate of San Francisco University where he received a degree in business administration rather than journalism.

"I had gotten an on the job education that I wasn't sure could be duplicated in the classroom," Hamilton said.

He is currently working on a political science degree at Oklahoma State University, and said he would like to teach journalism someday.

Hamilton has worked for several newspapers including others which are also now defunct like The Oklahoma Journal, namely

that fact. He said though many people predict the newpaper is a dying industry, he felt newspapers would always be around but will change to accomodate the reader.

Future journalists will have to "...write well, and fast and shorter.

They will have to move quicker," Hamilton said.

The Dallas-Times Herald.

He said many newspapers fail because they lose sight of where they are going and don't try to understand the market they are trying to reach.

People don't buy the paper for the news, Hamilton said. They buy it for the comics, or "Dear Abby," or the sports section, or "Parade," and a newspaper needs to consider

Hamilton said he will have some changing to do himself. He said he is a prolific writer and always writes longer stories than he is asked for. At The Dallas Morning News they call it "the Arnold Factor."

Hamilton spoke at a meeting of The Society of Professional Journalists last week. V

BERLIN (AP)—Albert Einstein once headed its physics institute, and its list of Nobel Prize-winners grew to 28 last year.

Germany's Max Planck Society is a name scientists admire when they talk about basic research.

The founders' idea was to "find a good man and create an institute around him," said Gerhard Ertl, who heads the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin, one of scores of Max Planck centers scattered around Germany.

The government-financed institutes are a source of Germany's scientific prowess, and are the envy of scientists in countries like the United States who have to devote more time justifying expensive research.

Ertl, 55, recenity won the $385,000 Japan Prize for his work on the behavior of metal surfaces at the atomic and molecular level.

He taught and did research for two decades at German and U.S. universities before he was lured to the Fritz Haber Institute in 1986.

"I came for the freedom," he said. "The director of a Max Planck institute is free to do what he thinks is really interesting."

The organization was founded in 1911, when it appeared German research was lagging. After World War H, it was renamed to honor Max Planck, the physicist who formulated the Quantum Theory on how atoms emit and absorb energy.

The Max Planck Society sticks to its 80-year-old aim: to free scientists from teaching duties and let them work with little interference.

Max Planck finances 56 institutes and eight working groups, and two institutes are being formed. About 30 research groups with time limits are also being supported.

The society is flexible in opening and closing its centers. In the 10 years to 1989, it closed two institutes and 27 other groups. It also founded eight institutes and 12 groups to meet new challenges.

The society supports about 2,400 scientists and 3,900 graduate students and guest scientists, including 45 percent from abroad.

The budget of $800 million comes almost entirely from the national and state governments, but the scientists manage it themselves with little sniping from parliaments.

All is not perfect. Ertl said staff had to be cut 1.5 percent, and money also had to be shifted to develop science in former East Germany. "But if you compare us with the situations in the U.S. or Britain, we are still much better off," he said.

U.S. scientists often have to justify their research proposals with anticipated benefits for society, he said: "This is hard to do with basic research. It's often just simple curiosity."

Last year two Max Planck researchers, Bert Sakmann and Erwin Neher, shared the Nobel Prize in medicine and physiology for discoveries in cell communication that help scientists understand such diseases as diabetes and cystic fibrosis.

Planck himself won the physics prize in 1918. Haber, like Einstein and other Jewish scientists, left Germany during the Nazi era, but now Haber's name is on the physical chemistry institute he founded in 1911.

The society's tradition of independence — with the exception of the Nazi era's ban on Jews — makes it a goal for many scientists.

Karl Lackner, head of a physics department at the nuclear fusion center in Bavaria, once filled out a high-school "wish list" by saying he hoped to do research in a Max Planck institute.

"Even then, with not too many feet on the ground, I considered the Max Planck society something to aspire to if you want to become a scientist," Lackner said. V

OU 's first black law student appointed to Board of Regents NORMAN, Okla. (AP) -- Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher's landmark lawsuit helped desegregate the University of Oklahoma in the late 1940s. Now the attorney-educator will soon sit on the school's governing board.

Ms. Fisher said she was proud of the appointment. "This truly is a historic and happy day," she said. "This is the day that completes a 45-year cycle."

Ms. Fisher, 66, was the first black admitted to the school's law school in 1949 after a ruling by the Supreme Court.

Former Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall represented her in her lawsuit, filed after she was denied admission to law school in 1946.

The nation's highest court reversed a ruling by the Oklahoma Supreme Court in 1948, declaring that Ms. Fisher was "entitled to secure a legal education offered by a state institution."

State officials operated on the theory the ruling did not strike down the separate-but-equal doctrine and set up law classes for Ms. Fisher at the state Capitol in Oklahoma City and hired three attorneys for faculty. Marshall immediately appealed.

In 1949, the Legislature amended the segregation statutes to allow qualified blacks to enroll for graduate study. During the summer of that year, Ms. Fisher was admitted to the college of law.

She practiced law from 1952 to 1957 and later received a master's degree in history and became head of the social sciences department at Langston University, the black school she attended before seeking admission to law school.

Richard Van Horn, the university's president, called Ms. Fisher a "woman of strength, conviction and determination" who will contribute significantly to the regents' board.

Ms. Fisher was appointed to fill the unexpired term of Sylvia Lewis, who had one year left to serve.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — If Oklahoma really wants to make 1992 The Year of The Indian, state officials should talk seriously with Indian leaders about issues of sovereignty, social justice and equal representation, an activist says.

The Tourism Department is looking for a way to generate funds," said Ben Carnes, an coordinator of the Oklahoma leg of the Spiritual Walk of 1992. "Looking at having Indians in beads and feathers come out and dance.

"We're challenging them. If they really want to make this the Year of the Indian, then they need to engage us in some serious dialogue."
