5,800 summer students expected
Enrollment nears record
By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Summer '89 enrollment at Central State University is expected to reach an all-time high of 5,800 students, according to Director of Admissions and Records Darrell Gilliland. Gilliland said the unofficial head count as of Tuesday, June 6 was 5,669 students, an increase of one and a half percent over the same period last year. Students can enroll for the regular summer session until June 8, and second block of classes until June 29, Gilliland said. "My expectations are when the final enrollment is made after June 29, we'll have another record enrollment this summer," Gilliland said. "In fact, summer enrollment Three summer school students pay tuition during a lull in enrollment activity Monday. (Photo by Stan Pollard)
Chinese student shocked by killings By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Yun Tao Xie, a Central State University student from mainland China, expressed shock and disbelief that the pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing were brutally put down by the Chinese "I am shocked and angry," Yun said. "Until now, I couldn't even imagine how the PLA (People's
Liberation Army) could kill their own people. How can they use violence and force to suppress the demonstrators? Wasn't there any other way?" Yun said students in China want democracy to eliminate corruption in the Communist regime, which according to him, has become very pervasive in recent years.

Football player killed in wreck Central State University sophomore football player Terrance Tyler died in a onevehicle accident at 12:35 p.m. May 26 in Dewey County, Oklahoma. An Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper said Tyler was dead at the scene. Tyler, who was from Houston, was driving a truck on a summer job when the accident occurred. Troopers said the truck was westbound when it ran off the road and rolled over twice.
at CSU has been increasing every year since 1986." Compared to last year, Gilliland said, the greatest increase is at the senior level, followed by sophomores and freshmen. About 1,388 seniors, 678 sophomores, 764 freshmen and 965 juniors have enrolled so far for summer courses at CSU this year. Graduate students numbered about 1,874, Gilliland said. Summer enrollment this year is the largest for graduate students, particularly education majors, Gilliland said. "We have the best college of education and the largest teacher education program in the state. This is because CSU's College of Education offers a wide and comprehensive range of education courses and programs."
Gilliland attributed the increasing summer enrollments at CSU to two main reasons—continuing education requirements for public school teachers and students returning home from other state and out-of-state institutions. Though this summer enrollment figures are not finalised yet, Gilliland said as many as 3,000 students transfer to CSU in a year's time. "Based on our records, we have more transfer students than freshmen in the past few years." The new self-enrollment plan according to class level is also working well, Gilliland said. "We don't have any long lines and we're able to better handle students' needs."

By-product of sun tanning may be cancer By Penny Stover Student Writer "Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer..." A golden tan has become as much a part of the American summer scene as baseball and Fourth of July. The beaches and poolsides are overflowing with sunbathers trying to achieve that "George Hamilton" look. An unwelcome byproduct of that gorgeous tan, however, might be skin cancer. "Continual tanning is usually the cause of basal and squamous cell cancinomas," said Dr. Alfred
Last, an Oklahoma City dermatologist. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), basal and squamous cell carcinomas account for 90 percent of all skin cancers. They don't usually spread to other parts of the body, and in that sense, are less dangerous than other kinds of skin malignancies. Squamous cell cancers are more threatening when they occur near the nose, ears, eyes or lips. The most deadly of all skin cancers, however, is malignant melanoma.
"It's the acute sunburn that's mainly responsble for melanoma," Last said, "but if we can detect it when it's thin (early stages), it's still almost 100 percent curable." According to Last, a puzzling aspect of melanoma is that it tends to occur more frequently on unexposed parts of the body. "There is realy no explanation for this, except that it may be a genetic predispostion," Last said. Although malignant melanoma

"I support the students' movement; however, I doubt if there will be much change as long as hard-line Communists such as Deng Chow Peng remain in power."
"Many Chinese expect reform, and it is my hope the government will stop using their powers wrongly. Hopefully, China will become a democracy much the same as the United States."
"Because of the slow process of change in China, I think it will be quite awhile before the government changes anything."
"I do not think any immediate changes will result from the demonstrations. The government is too strong to give up the present communistic system."

Readers' viewpoints requested A paper's editorial page provides not only a chance for the editorial staff to give their views on events in the news, but, perhaps more importantly, it also gives the readers a forum to express their views on the news and its coverage by the paper. As the new editor of the The VISTA, I take seriously the role of this paper to provide this forum for the readers. I hope you, as readers and members of a university community, will use this forum to think through and express your views. For, as one American journalist said: "The editorial page is the place for men and women of vigorous thought and boundless curiousity. It is the place that strains every ounce of education you can get on a campus in every field of learning." Readers, you are invited to share in the content of this page. The VISTA wants to hear your "comfort for the afflicted and affliction for the comfortable"—and any other views on which you may want to sound off. Larry Floyd Editor in chief

Freshman requests orientation Newly arrived on campus at 1 p.m. May 31, I entered my dormitory and proceeded to the information desk located near the entrance. I was given a key to my room and directions to go to the left and down the hallway. After I moved all my belongings into my room, I left to attend a meeting. When I returned, the information desk was closed, and no sign was there to indicate where to find information. Why is the residential staff not handing out information packets? I didn't know where to go for meals or how to send mail. I didn't
receive my address or my phone extension until John Heath gave them to me that evening.
Letter My bank needed my address and telephone number by 4 p.m. I received them at 7:30 p.m. after I asked John for them. It's really too bad the men on duty were not prepared for what they job requires them to do. They are to assist students, but I did not feel I was assisted. I asked another staffer if I could
check out a basketball, and I was refused. I went back later to get a lightbulb for a desk lamp I hoped to use because the room desklight circuitry was fouled up. He told me he would see that an electrician was sent to repair it. I'm still waiting. With the unreasonable prices a student must pay for room and board, it would seem students could be assisted when they are in need.

Borrowed time, crossed fingers and prayer. The latter two items in this short list are just a couple of the lessthan-technical measures the KCSC engineering and managerial staffs are using in their race against the first. Borrowed time refers to a very real element existing in regard to the dependability factor of the transmitter used by the public radio station located on campus. Larry Iverson, KCSC chief engineer, said there is, however, a fund-raising effort taking place now, the end result of which will be the acquisition of a new building for a new transmitter. The goal of the drive is to raise $24,000 for the building which will house the new transmitter being built by Continental Electronics in Dallas right now, he said. Iverson said "We are working with the administration and other agencies, as required by law, towards the end of getting a new building constructed at our transmitter site at Wantland Stadium. This is where the current drive is aimed." According to Iverson, the new building represents state-of-the art advances in transmitter environment protection systems. He said a big problem with the current building is that it is dirty and hot or dirty and cold.

A total of 304 graduate students received the master's degree. The College of Business conferred 480 bachelor's degrees; Education, 431; Liberal Arts, 267; and Mathematics and Science, 254.
These extremes, coupled with the parts availability problem, have taken their toll on the RCA transmitter now in use, said Iverson. "It's hard to try to work within a budget when you've got a transmitter that eats up $2,000 dollars at a pop, Iverson said. "Its become a situation where a condition of pay me now or pay me later exists." However, Iverson said that one real fear is that the transmitter might suffer another equipment failure or lightning may strike again before replacement can be effected. "The question then becomes whether to spend $8,000 on a Band-Aid in order to stay on the air," he said. Iverson said the other option is to extend the down time required for installation of the new equipment and save that money for other operating costs. "Hopefully, that decision won't have to be made," he said. At this point, there is a possibility that the new transmitter will be finished before the building is in place, Iverson said. Donna Peters, KCSC General Manager said, the entire building—transmitter project is costing $120,000, all of which has come from memberships and donations. The $24,000 new buildingcampaign is being funded by those listeners who are current with their memberships, she said.

Emergency dialing tips given By Bill Kramer Staff Writer Students, faculty, and staff at Central State University need to be familiar with the correct procedure in accessing the 911 emergency telephone system, said Chief of Campus Security Bob Roberts. Roberts said students must remember to dial "9" on the campus phone system (those phones other than the ones in the Broncho
Apartments and Married Student Housing) to reach an outside line. Therefore, using the campus phones system, the emergency system can be accessed only by dialing "9-911." The 911 system combines the emergency services of police, fire, and ambulance into one central communications center and should only be used in actual emergency cases, Roberts said. For non-emergency cases, Roberts said for people to con-

The main reason for having the 911 feature available at CSU is for the safety of students, faculty, and staff, and Roberts added that he wants to properly handle any emergency situation on campus as quickly and efficiently as possible. Should anyone need additional information regarding the 911 system, Roberts said to call a campus telephone operator.

Conference calling available on campus By Bill Kramer Staff Writer
Conference calling is one of many available features on the ROLM single-line telephone system currently in use on campus. Harold Elston, telecommunications specialist, said many people, especially students, are unaware of what is available with this system. All campus phones, except pay phones, are connected to the ROLMsystem. "Students may benefit from many handy features including `do not disturb' calling, call forwarding, conference calling, three-way calling, and transfer calling," Elston said. Sophomore David Chadwell, who said a friend told him about the ROLM system features, thinks the do not disturb command is most helpful. "I frequently use do not disturb and find it is very effective when I don't want any interruptions," Chadwell said. Activating the do not disturb command will give all calling parties a busy signal until cancelled. To block the line, the manual instructs the user to press one # and the number 5. To open the line, press two # and one 5. Another feature, call forwarding, can be accessed by keying in "#" and "9" and the extension number to receive the call. To cancel the command, key in "#" and "9" and hang up. Elston said conference calling is an "interesting feature." To activate this feature, pick up the receiver, hold the hookswitch down (known as flashing) for one second and listen for a high-pitched dial tone, he said. After dialing an extension number, or "9" and the outside number, inform the answering party a
conference call is being made.. Then, listen for pulse tone and a high-pitched holding tone. Key in *" and "4" to talk to the parties. A total of eight extensions can be added by repeating the steps above, Elston said. Three-way calling can be accessed only if two parties agree. If a person making a call gets a busy signal, he must wait for eight seconds to allow the three-way system to activate. After eight seconds, the person being called will hear a high-pitched tone informing him of a third party call. The person making the call will hear music until the party being called presses the flash button (for one full second) and keys in "*" and "1." Keying in "*" and "1" a second time will then reconnect the original party, according to the ROLM Single-Line User Guide. Once this is done, hitting the flash, "*" and "4" will connect all three parties at one time, making a three-way connection. Transferring calls is accomplished by pressing the flash, keying in "*" and "7", and the extension number to be reached. Announce the caller and hang up the receiver to make the connection complete. If a busy signal is reached or nobody answers the attempted transfer, pressing the flash and keying in "*" and "1" will reconnect the original caller, Elston said. Elston encourages students to use the ROLM system. He said students should inform him of their telephone problems o call by calling him at extension 2548. The ROLM user guides cost the university 2.50 each and Elston said he cannot give them out. For
information regarding other ROLM Single-Line features, students should contact Elston.

Soccer funds sought EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first of a two-part in depth article about the Central State University's soccer club seeking varsity status. By Mike Sullivan Guest Writer The Sport of the future. A can't miss opportunity. An athletic event that will finally link us with the rest of the world. These are some of the labels soccer promoters have attached to the sport since the early 1970's when enthusiasts predicted the game would take over American football by the end of the decade. Twenty years have passed since soccer was predicted to be the next messiah, and in some areas it has taken root, but in other parts of the country, soccer has yet to make an impact. Several nation-wide professional soccer leagues have come and gone in the past two decades, and the game on the collegiate level remains at best, a secondary alternative sport. Football American style is the sport of choice in this country, particularly in Oklahoma, where none of the state's three major universities has a varsity soccer program. Tulsa University and Oral Roberts University compete in varsity soccer at the NCAA Division 1 level, while Oklahoma University, Oklahoma State University and Central State University compete as club teams. "This is Big eight country," said Jalal Daneshfar, coach of the Central State University soccer club. "There's not much big time soccer around here, it's all football and soccer. You just don't hear about it around hear." Regardless of its level of popularity, soccer gurus continue to praise the benefits of the game saying, "the game is less dangerous, it doesn't promote agression,
and it's one of the least expensive games to operate." Advocates of the game usually draw upon this "low overhead" associated with the sport when they plead their case, and Daneshfar is no exception. that is why he and several of his teammates feel soccer warrants varsity—level status at CSU—because of its costs,rather than in spite of them. "Students are always complaining about the cost of varsity athletics; well soccer is the least expensive of them all,"said CSU soccer club member Patrick Ruefle. Ruefle, a senior history major, said because the players in the club had to pay for entry fees and uniforms,many potential players on the Central State University did not even try out for the team. "There are a lot of good players on campus who aren't playing because the cost is to high," he said. "If we had a varsity team these
people would play, and we could start recruiting too." For the time being, the CSU soccer club competes in tournaments statewide and belongs to an unofficial winter league composed of clubt teams from Oklahoma University and Oklahoma State University, as well as varsity teams from Oklahoma Christian College, Oklahoma City University and Southern Nazerine University. The club teams from the three large universities are at a disadvantage when competing against organized varsity level squads, part of the reason the CSU team failed to win a game this past season, Daneshfar said. While not wanting to make it sound like an alibi for the team's losing season, Daneshfar insists varsity status would be necessary if the team were to be expected to win. "The number of potential play-
ers would increase tenfold if we went varsity," he said. "We could also recruit the quality player and walk-ons. The Edmond area is loaded with talent. I'm sure we could get some of those kids." It is this apparant abundant number of high school and youthlevel soccer players in the metropolitan area that places the three local NAIA soccer teams (SNU, OCU, OCC) among the country's best, say the teams' coaches. Wes Harmon, Southern Nazarene University's soccer coach, said not only was the area a hotbed for talent, but the time would be right for CSU to make soccer a varsity sport. "I don't know why Central State doesn't have a varsity team, but they have a golden opportunity right now to add one," Harmon said. They're a state school with low tuition, so even if they couldn't offer the student a scholarship, he could still afford it." "They're sitting in the middle of a rich area of youth programs these kids aren't going to have anywhere to play, we have to turn away quality players all the time." CSU athletic officials have said repeatedly the department would not be adding any sports, leaving Daneshfar with the realization that it may be quite some time before the soccer club is added to the Central State athletic agenda. There isn't much mood right now for supporting soccer on this campus," Daneshfar said. "Besides, men's volleyball will probably be the next sport which is added to our varsity program." Broncho volleyball enthusiasts might very well agree a men's team is next in line to be added to the list of varsity sports on the CSU campus, but according to athletic department officials, any additions to the program are not in the forserable future.
Coach's Corner By John Lukehart Sports Editor As you are reading my column, you probably already know the outcome of the first game of the National Basketball Association's Championship Series. But, just for fun Randy Anderson and I will tell you who is going to win and how they are going to do it. Since I am the Sports Editor, I will go first. I will take Detroit in six games. The Pistons are physical enough to slow down the Lakers express. Depth, off of the bench, is another Detroit plus. Vinnie "The Microwave" Johnson is the key, if he is hot the Pistons are hot. However, I think that Detroits most valuable player could be Los Angeles' Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. If he throws up a few air-ball sky-hooks it could make the difference in a close game. Well, John, since I am just the Sports Writer I guess I will go second. The grand old man Kareem Abdul-Jabaar will have the championship series of his life. He will be playing in the last few games of his career and with his sky-hook he will perform magic. While we are on the subject of magic let's talk about the greatest player in the game of basketball, Ervin "Magic" Johnson. He can do it all. They will do it again!

All-State draws 4,500 By John Lukehart Sports Editor Seventy-six of Oklahoma's best women high school basketball players gathered at Central State University's Broncho Fieldhouse last weekend to battle for the right to be considered the best of the best. Friday night, the Large West and the Large East squads met in the 6:30 game. With the help of a 14-10 early run, the Large East took early command. The run put the East in front 21-10 and the West could not get closer than five points. In Friday's nightcap, the Small East and Small West battled for the remaining position in the winners bracket. A balanced attack, combined with a couple of first half spurts, helped the girls from the west do away with the Small East team. While holding on to a two-point
lead, Pat Thomas, of Snyder, scored on back-to-back 3-pointers and a jumpshot to spark a 10-point run. Phase two of the scoring run came by the next squad of forwards from the Small West squad. Their 12-2 run gave the West an 18-point cushion at the half. In the third quarter, the Small West increased their lead to 24 points before the Small East staged a comeback. However, the Small West made another 7-0 run to seal the victory. In Saturday evening's first game, the Large West and the Small East battled in the loser's bracket game. An early 19-2 run put the Small East squad in command and they never looked back. The Large West never got within six points. For the first time in the 10-year history of the current format, the
Large West squad finished the tournament with a 0-2 record. In the All-State Championship game, the Small West defeated the Large East in a double-overtime victory 77-74. The Small West played catchup most of the second half but used a 15-0 fourth-quarter run to take their first lead of the second half. With just three seconds left, Jay's Cindy Brewster busted a 3-pointer to send the game into overtime. In the first two-minute overtime, no shot was taken. The East team tried to hold the ball for the full two-minute period. The plan backfired when the West stole the ball with 18 seconds left. In the second overtime the West outscored the East 4-1 to capture the victory.

Golfers 11th at NAIA By John Lukehart Sports Editor Central State University's golf team finished their season May 23-26 with a trip to the 38th NAIA National Golf Tournament in Bay City, Mich., at the Bay Valley Golf Club. It was CSU's second straight national tournament appearance and the fourth of the decade for the Bronchos, who finished 15th last year, 10th in 1983 and third in 1981.
CSU finished 11th with a team score of 93 over par in the fourround tournament. Senior John Shelly led the Bronchos with a four-round score of 304. Shelly was also named honorable mention All-American. Coach John 'Skip' Wagnon said that his team did not play bad, but they would have liked to have played better. "All and all we had a good sea-
son. We played well and won some tournaments," Wagnon said. "A lot of teams would be happy with finishing 11th at nationals, but we thought we could have done better," Wagnon said. CSU captured its second straight District 9 title April 24-25, and won three tournaments last spring while placing second in the CSU Kickingbird Classic and third in the Lone Star Conference Championships.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Central State University's Lady Broncho basketball team recently signed Jodi Nelson to a four year basketball scholarship. The Vista caught up with this future Lady Broncho to find out what she is all about. Jodi Nelson a 5' 6" forward attended Newcastle High School where she was a two-time all— conference selection in basketball as well as earning all-conference honors three times in softball, while receiving all-state honors in both sports. Nelson led Newcastle to a berth in the state tournament in 1988-89 and averaged 25.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.7 steals and 2.3 assists a game as a senior, shooting 63 percent from the field. While at Newcastle, Nelson was a National Merit Scholar and a member of the National Honor Society with a 3.8 grade average, she was also active in Speech Club, Science Club, Computer Club and yearbook. "We will definitely be able to use her," said Sports Information Director, Mike Kirk.
Jodi Nelson Q. How will the transition from six-on-six to five-on-five affect you when you begin your college career? A. I really don't think it will affect me that much because I've played five-on-five for the past three summers in the Amature Athletic Union. Q. You have received AllState honors in both basketball and softball. Why did you choose basketball as your primary sport? A. I have always loved basketball just a little bit more than soft-
Q. Did any major Universities recruit you to play basketball? A. Several NAIA schools including Southwestern Oklahoma State University, Northwestern Oklahoma State University, and St. Gregory in Shawnee all seemed interested, but Central State acted concerned. Q. Do you have any specific person that you consider an idol? A.Yes, Michael Jordan, he is incredible and no matter what the circumstances he always gives one hundred percent, even if he is playing injured. Q. Do you have a motto that you go by? A. I guess that if you work hard and play together as a team that things will all come together for you. Q. How long have you been intersested in athletics? A. I really got intersested in sports in about the sixth grade. I liked softball better than I did basketball back then but I really started getting interested in basketball and I just thought that that was what I wanted to do.

Prevention of sun-induced skin cancer is a multi-faceted regimen. The "Cancer Facts and Figures" booklet recommends the following. • Avoid the sun between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. when ultraviolet rays are strongest. • Use protective clothing. • Use a sunscreen preparation, that contains such ingredients as PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid). The most common misconception about sunbathing, according to Last, is that a tan serves to protect against skin damage. "It just contributes to premature aging," he said.

In its booklet, "Cancer Facts and Figures," the ACS estimates the five-year survival rates for those with localized malignant melanoma is 89 percent. However, if the cancer has metastasized, the five-year rate drops to 39 percent. Also, the number of melanoma victims is on the rise. According to the ACS, the rate of malignant melanomas is increasing faster than any other type of cancer, except for lung cancer in women.
