AIDS prevention programs need S3 billion, official says BERLIN (AP) — The number of new AIDS cases in developing countries could be halved by the year 2000 if an additional $3 billion were spent annually there on prevention programs, the head of the World Health Organization AIDS prOgram said. Dr. Michael Merson, speaking Monday at the Ninth International Conference on AIDS, said the cost translates into one soft drink for every person in the world. "So many lives could be saved, so much suffering averted," he said at the weeklong gathering of 15,000 scientists, activists and people with AIDS. "The world can find this money when it wants to.''

Fall tuition increase imminent; hike hinges on Gov. Walters By Roy Howe

Staff Writer The reality of students paying more and the University of Central Oklahoma receiving less hinges on Governor David Walter's signature. His signature would make the legislature's intent to raise tuition costs and tap the state's emergency funds to help fund higher education. The tuition hike would begin this fall and raise the ceiling on class costs at UCO 7 percent—a number that UCO President George Nigh has the option of raising to 8 percent. At the time The Vista went to print, Walters had not signed either bill. Both bills; House Bill 1321, that would increase tuition, and Senate Bill 390, that would free money from the state's reserve fund, were sent to the

governor May 28 and must be acted upon by June 12. Walter's aides said that he would not comment on the bills until after he reviewed and took action on them. The legislature approved tuition increases at 8 percent for the state's two comprehensive universities, 7 percent at the four-year institutions and would raise tuition at twoyear colleges by 6 percent. The tuition increases are expected to provide higher education in Oklahoma with an additional $11 million to ease the crunch caused by budget woes. Further, the legislation provided that institutions with an enrollment of 9,000 fulltime equivalent students (a number arrived at by dividing the number of credit hours being taken at the institution by the number of students) could request that the State Regents for Higher Education allow an increase up to 8 percent.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — State lawmakers adopted tighter restrictions on abortion, requiring women to wait 24 hours and receive information about fetal development after requesting the procedure. Gov. Ben Nelson was expected to sign the measure within the week, which passed 39-8 on the last day of this year's legislative session. Similar laws are on the books in eleven states.

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Services were held Wednesday for Ed Parks Jr., the former presiding judge of the state Court of Criminal Appeals. Parks, 70, died Sunday night at a Tulsa hospital. A Tulsa native, Parks was in private law practice in Tulsa when Gov. George Nigh appointed him to the Court of Criminal Appeals in 1984. He served two years as the panel's presiding judge, and retired last year after eight years on the

This provision only affects UCO and Tulsa Junior College. Nigh explained that he will not request the 8 percent increase in an effort to keep tuition at UCO moderate for the student. "We will stay with the 7 percent increase," he said. "We were hopeful that a 7 percent increase would be allotted to us. Keeping the new library and parking fees in mind, we are trying to be as considerate as possible," Nigh said. "We've been in favor of keeping it (tuition) reasonable for the student," he said, "but you also have to recognize that with the reduced funds from the state, the students have to help make-up the expense." If the Bill is signed by Walters, resident tuition rates at UCO for freshmen and sophomore level classes would rise $2.64 per credit-hour from $37.75 to $40.39.

Longtime baseball coach laid to rest By Bill Kramer

Staff Writer "Take me out to the ball game. Take me out to the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks...I don't care if I ever get back..." The familiar tune blared through the speakers of the Southside Colonial Chapel Tues-

day as passers-by paid final respects to one of our national pastime's biggest supporters. Longtime head coach of the University of Central Oklahoma baseball program, Bobby Lynn Hunt, was laid to rest on what would have been his 61st birthday. Hunt, who skippered the University of

Central Oklahoma baseball program for 29 years before retiring in 1991, died from an apparent heart attack Saturday while at his home in Oklahoma City. The personable Hunt compiled a 517521 record, since taking the reigns in 1963. See HUNT, back page.

Very soon boys will begin calling you and asking you out on dates. This has always been a dreaded time for fathers, as they remember what pond scum they once were. Guys go through three phases as they approach adulthood. The three stages are: aspiring swine, swine, and domesticated. Regardless of the stage, every male can eventually be domesticated with aminimal amount of effort. Aspiring swine know what they want, but have no idea how to

achieve it. They do things like sweat profusely and stutter when asking you out. When kissing you good night they will usually forget to breathe and start to turn a most lovely shade of blue. True swine have the same expectations as the aspiring swine, but the true swine are much smoother in their approach toward girls. The also tend to know the most appropriate thing to say and at the most opportune moment. They will hang on your every word and your every thought. The true swine will fake an interest in every aspect of your life. You can spot them by mentioning your Barbie Doll collection. No guy on this planet is interested in dolls; and, if your date 'pretends even the slightest interest, he has an ulterior motive. Domesticated guys will go to endless shoe stores and shopping malls with you. Also, they will have a lifeless, zombie-like look in their eyes.

Never date the most popular guys. The can get other dates and will often refuse to humiliate themselves at your most minor whims that can be annoying. Date nerds, as they can easily be trained to serve you, will work three jobs to buy you that electric dog polisher that you have always wanted, and can be made over much like a real life Ken doll. You can rip out the heart of a nerd and he will take it, as he knows that he will never find a better girlfriend than you. He will never leave until you casually discard him. When you have decided upon a nerd of your very own, I suggest that you follow the suggestions of a good dog training manual because it will accelerate his obedience training. You will be able to skip one chapter as he arrives from his family already housebroken. —Bob Williams UCO student

Faculty to participate in institute for teachers Student gives reasons to return to UCO

T

OP TEN REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD COME BACK IN FALL SEMESTER TO UCO 10) For the first time, you don't have to move off campus to live with your girlfriend, you can do that in Murdaugh Hall. 9) The UCO food service will continue to offer its famous diet program and you don't have to pay for the pounds you lose. 8) There will be a $15 parking fee, so now you can justify occupying the faculty parking spot since you are paying for it. 7) This summer all UCO students will develop an advanced

immune system so they won' t get sick in Fall since there is possibility that the health center will be shut down in the fall. 6) You will pay more for the Master Plan without knowing what it is all about. 5) It might take one hour and 55 minutes to enroll instead of the regular length of two hours. 4) the easiest professor of you dream might offer a course where he gives only one exam, open book/open notes and you can take it as many tunes as you want to until your grade improves. 3) Hopefully, they will expand the library so that we will all have

that extra needed space for necessary activities like dating, eating and drinking. 2) "The lady luck might ride again" in a Broncho football game and everyone would get a free coupon from Pizza Hut. Thanks to Kinko's, by the way. 1) Finally, you will get a studen t presiden t whom you have seen before voting. I wish everyone a happy summer and welcome back to UCO in the fall.

Special education professor retires after serving 30 years at university By Will Andrews Copy Editor

Dr. William VanOsdol, special education professor at the University of Central Oklahoma, is retiring from the university after almost 30 years. "It was just time to bring things to a close," VanOsdol said. VanOsdol received a BA from the University of Oklahoma in 1961 and his Ph.D. from OU in 1964. He also began his career as a teacher in 1964 at Central State University. Retirement does not mean he is going to slow down, however.

"I sent a picture of Dan standing on his P-40 to Dick Martin (Rowan's partner on the show) and he'd never seen a picture of Dan from the war," VanOsdol said. He said he is also planning another book about World War II movies. Retirement is not necessarily permanent, though. VanOsdol said he may continue to teach as professor emeritus.

Geery places in pageant; wins $200 and scholarship By Roger Groce Staff Writer Miss University of Central Oklahoma, Heather Geery, joined 43 other women in the four-day Miss Oklahoma pageant, that concluded Saturday in Tulsa . Although she failed to win Miss Oklahoma or subsequent runnerup titles, Geery won a one-year college scholarship for finishing in the top ten, a S200 award for scoring the highest as anewcomer

for her interview skills, and S200 for newcomer talent. "I'm going back," Geery said. "Having that experience behind you gives you that certain edge." Geery is the only Miss UCO to make it into the top 10, which is unusual for a first-time contestant. Geer)• prepared for the pageant with intense physical training, and careful study of current issues, she said. She said discovering her own opinions about issues and deciding what her position on those is-

sues would bewas educational to her. "I grew up a lot," Geery said. "I learned that the Lord is in control of my life and goes before me. I have peace about not winning this year because I prayed about it," she said. The support Geery received from UCO faculty and students was "too much to mention," she said; and with the financial awards from the Miss Oklahoma pageant and the local UCO pageant, her school tuition for the next two years will be paid.

UCO enrollment hits record high 6,915 students By Steve Sager Student Writer

The summer enrollment record at the University of Central Oklahoma was broken on Monday. Charles Boyles, 29 was greeted by UCO President Geroge Nigh as he was about to enroll and presented him with a certificate that stated he was the 6,915 person to enroll. The previous record had been 6,914. Boyles, a special education major who transferred from Rose State College, was given a $50 credit at the UCO bookstore. UCO now has the second largest summer enrollment in the state, trailing only OU. Total enrollment has risen from 5,584 to 6,915 in the last eight years. "I didn't even have money for books and look what happened," said Boyles, a 1981 graduate of Millwood High School and a car salesman at Jim Glover Dodge. President Nigh said the event gives recognition to the role UCO plays in higher education. "Another record has fallen, we're getting into the habit here at UCO," said Nigh.

ogy at UCO. "Accreditation means the program at UCO can continue to exist." As of Jan. 1, 1994, a student must complete graduate course credits in a program accredited by the Educational Standards Board (ESB) of the American SpeechLanguage-Hearing Association (ASHA) to receive the ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence. The certificate is the nationally reconized standard for licensure and certification in the profession, and is required by most schools, hospitals and states, including

Oklahoma. To be accredited, a program must meet or exceed ESB standards. An application must be filed and approved, and a team must visit the university to verify the accuracy of the application. If the team determines that the information given is accurate, the program receives accreditation. UCO is now one of four state schools to be accredited by the ASHA, following the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and the University of Tulsa, but there's more than mere

"bragging rights" involved for the school. "National accreditation has become much more than a matter of prestige or recognition," McLaughlin said. "The program qualifies us for federal grants and other federal and state funding which may have been denied if we had not been approved." Laura Holland, a graduate student in the program has been confident but apprehensive about accreditation approval. "If we hadn't gotten approval, I would have had to finish my educa-

tion at another school," Holland said. "I'm so excited that our program can get recognition." McLaughlin said that other benefits of national accreditation include being more accountable for how the program is run, and the ability to analyze the program's strengths and weaknesses. "With the ongoing shortage of speech and language pathologists across the nation, and especially in Oklahoma," McLaughlin said, "it is critical that this program continue to thrive."

Fire engulfs home of UCO vice president Jacob and his family plan to rebuild the home despite damages By Joe Umbarger Staff Writer

A Sunday morning fire destroyed the home of Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president of academic affairs. A neighbor reported the fire at 5:24 a.m. When firefighters arrived flames were coming from the roof of the house at 3621 N.E. 142nd Ct. in Edmond. The Jacob family awoke to the smell of smoke, and were able to escape without injury, Jacob's secretary said. The fire, which caused extensive damage to the structure, in-

eluding partial collapse of the roof, took firefighters almost an hour to extinguish, according to an Oklahoma City Fire Department spokesperson. Preliminary reports indicate the fire was caused by an electrical short in the attic or garage. The Oklahoma City Fire Department responded to the call because, although the fire occurred in the Edmond city limits, it falls under the jurisdiction of Oklahoma City's Fire Station No. 2. Damage estimates were not available at publication time. Jacob said the house will be rebuilt.

Dr. Clyde Jacob's home remains standing after it was destroyed by a Sunday morning fire.

Professors use bats and rats to teach summer academies Students learn under unusual circumstances By Joe Umbarger Staff Writer What do bats, rats and computers have in common with quantitative analysis and Back to the Future II? They are all parts of three summer academies for high school students hosted by the University of Central Oklahoma's college of math and science during June and July. "Exploring Quantitative Analysis" is a three-week course directed by UCO math instructors Thomas Campbell and Dr. Loy Puffinbarger. UCO will sponsor 25 high school students and five high school math teachers. Puffinbarger said they will be talking about and collecting data and writing reports. "We will simulate, as much as we can, how a report is written in business," Puffinbarger said. Field trips to the Federal Avia-

academy directed by physics professor Dr. Ron Miller. The academy will study basic physics from a historical perspective, and will examine the latest trends in physics research. "On our field trips we will meet people who are doing science," Miller said. "We'll go to the laser lab at Oklahoma State University to meet people who are in the forefront of laser activity." Miller said he plans to take the students on a field trip to Frontier City to observe the laws of amusement park physics. "You can talk about the water in the pail not falling out when the pail is swung in a circle," Miller said, "but when you're riding the Silver Bullet that lesson is really driven home." The Oklahoma State Re gents for Higher Education gave more than $70,000 in grant money for the three summer academies.

tion Administration (FAA) and Oklahoma Medical School are also planned. "Bats, Rats and Computers: Field Ecology" is a four-week biology academy co-directed by Dr. Terry Harrison, biology chairman, and Dr. Bill Caire, assistant dean of the College of Mathematics and Science. Part of the academy will deal with learning how scientific research works, and part will involve field trips to the Tall Grass Prairie Preserve near Pawhuska, where the students will assist in setting out 400 traps designd to catch rats without harming them, then marking and collecting data on the rats and mice they've trapped. Also included is a trip to a bat cave near Woodward where Harrison said they hope to net bats. "Physics and You: Back to the Future II" is the physics summer

July weekend workshop teaches German culture By Heide Brandes Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma Department of Foreign Languages will offer a German Total Immersion Workshop for intermediate level German students July 23-25 at St. Gregory's College in Shawnee. "The workshop is a weekendlong intensive immersion in the German language and culture," said Dr. Rudi Nollert, assistant professor of foreign languages and coordinator of the workshop. "The audience for this summer institute is Oklahoma City area students who have reached at least intermediate level. You need to have at least done well in the first year of German," Nollert said. The workshop includes activities requiring the use of German. German films, a tour of the campus, intensive conversational training and instructions on cul-

ture and linguistic background on shopping, meal preparation and leisure time in German are among the activities planned. "We would like to end the session with a skit prepared in German called 'Wild West German,"' said Nollert. "It should be a fun weekend. Learning and fun while learning have equal billing." The German workshop is worth both graduate and undergraduate credit. The fee for undergraduate credit is $45.50 and $57.50 for graduate credit. An additional fee of $12.50 per night is required. Meals are not included in the fee. "This workshop will give (students) greater confidence in later developments in any foreign language course," Nollert said. "They can understand what it really means to work in another language." For more information, contact Nollert at 341-2980, Ext. 5847.

TUITION Continued from page 1

Junior and senior level class prices would rise from $38.50 per credit-hour to $41.25, an increase of $2.75 per hour and graduate level courses at UCO would increase $3.55 per credit-hour, jumping from $50.50 to $54.05. Tuition for non-resident students would see an average increase of $5.15 per credit-hour. Raising the ceiling on tuition requires approval by the legislature and was authorized as a onetime plan. Any further hikes must again be approved.

course fee. The State Regents for Higher Education and institutional administrators are also awaiting the Governor's signature to release $44 million in "Rainy Day" funds approved by lawmakers last month with $28.4 million targeted towards higher education. With an 8.2 percent reduction in state funding for higher education to begin this July, institutions are facing a statewide loss of $47 million. Funding from the state's emergency funds is expected to soften the blow to a reduction of

3.3 percent compared to last years allocations. If signed off by Walters, the emergency funds will bring higher education's funding to $556.4 million compared to $575.2 million the state regents had to work with last year. "As soon as he signs those bills, we will allocate the appropriations to the higher educational institutions, constituent agencies and centers as well as to special programs and to the Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant programs," said Laura Cupp, communications

specialists with the state regents. The University of Central Oklahoma's budget will fall 3.5 percent or just above $1 million short of the current fiscal year's budget. The university received $29 million from the state last year and is expected to receive $28 million in state funds when Walters approves the rainy day funds to be spent. At their regular meeting June 21, state regents will review the budgets submitted by the state's higher learning sites and allot the funds.

"The very first time I came into contact with Bobby Hunt was in (American) legion ball, back in 1971," Edelen said. "Bobby was umpiring at third base, where I was playing. "A lot of balls were being hit through a gap between third and short and he finally turned to me and said, 'Son, let me ask you something. Where does it seem like most of the balls are going through?' "I said, 'to my left,' and he said, `Well, don' t you think it would be a good idea if you moved over a little?' After I moved, the next ball was a base hit down the third base

line. Bobby just smiled and said, `You just never know, do `ya?' That's what he is famous for. Those little sayings," Edelen said. Simmons said Hunt placed his career emphasis on his team. "He was probably more proud of all his players, who graduated and moved on to become coaches themselves or administrators, than wins and losses." "That's just the way he was," Simmons said.

Last February the state regents pushed fora seven-year plan which would raise the student's contribution to their education to onethird, with the taxpayers funding the rest. This plan began with increases at 10 percent the first two years and hikes by 2 percent until the year 2000. Lawmakers chose to create their own package. If the bill is signed by Walters, students who have already paid their fall tuition will be billed for the additional amount which includes only the per credit-hour

HUNT

Continued from page 1

The personable Hunt compiled a 517-521 record, since taking the reigns in 1963. Hunt-led teams made nine district championship tournament appearances under UCO's longtime affiliation with the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and won the league title in 1983. Former players and colleagues describe him as a high-spirited man, who truly loved the game of baseball. "Bobby was never a down person," said Wendell Simmons, who succeeded Hunt as coach of the Bronchos in 1991.
