Park to enhance campus charm; Future beauty projects planned By Kim Voynar Some students may have been wondering just what the bulldozed area on the corner of Second and University is. The now-barren piece of land is soon to become Simmons Park. John "Skip" Wagnon, executive secretary of the CSU Foundation, said the main part of the park will be a large flower planter. A sign reading "Central State University" will be around the bottom of the planter, Wagnon said. Wagnon said the park will also include benches, sidewalks, and trees. The total cost of the park's con-

struction, according to Wagnon, is $18,000. The money to build the park was donated by CSU alumni John Wendall Simmons, Jr. and Polly Simmons Graham. Wagnon said the park should be completed by the beginning of the fall semester. Simmons Park is not the only beautification project planned to make the CSU campus more attractive and appealing. Wagnon said the California Alumni Group has been discussing the possibility of raising the funds necessary to landscape the area north of the University Center, commonly called "Thatcher Lake".

Education changing for nursing students Vista photo by Chris White

,

The above and below photos, show the present and future sites of Simmons Park, one of the many campus beautification projects. The park, located at Second and University was funded by two alumni, John Wendell Simmons and Polly (Simmons) Graham.

By Susan Green Due to the lack of training needed to care for the sick of today, the Oklahoma Nursing Association has stated there will be changes in the educational qualifications for nursing practice. According to the ONA, as of 1990, nurses will have two options. One is to work for the baccalaureate which will be the minimum requirement for entry into professional practice of a Registered Nurse, whose duties are to supervise, be able to function in a structured or unstructured environment and be able to work independently. The other option is to work toward an associate degree, which will be the minimum requirement for into professional practice of a Licenced Practical Nurse, whose duties are to work in a structured environment and work under the supervision of a RN. Dr. Barbara Henthorn, chairperson of nursing, feels these changes are long overdo. "LPNs are having trouble finding jobs. The patients are sicker and they need someone with additional training. They only have an associate degree and they are ask-

ed to do things they don't know how to do." Henthorn adds that the inpact of the change is already being seen at CSU. Some nurses with just an associate are coming back to get their baccalaureates and those just entering the program are realizing if they want to do it all, they go for a baccalaureate to start with. Those who want to be LPNs just go for the associate. These changes will be clearer for the nursing student and they will be able to concentrate on what they do best, Henthorn said. There's always been one job description and now it will be different, Henthorn said. As of now, Henthorn says the nursing program is able to deal with the upgrade training with the current enrollment. If the enrollment grows, they will add to the faculty and when the changes have passed throught the legislature, they will add a night class for RNs who have full-time jobs. Henthorn feels the change will not change the minds of those who want to become nurses because they have made the decision that they are interested in nursing.

Opinion Page Alumni effort needs insight By Kim Voynar Associate Editor In a time of budget cuts and tuition hikes, the construction of Simmons Park may seem to some like a needless expenditure of money. Although the $18,000 being spent to build the park could possibly be used in other areas, it is important to keep in mind the money is contributed by alumni, not coming from the administrative budget. Evidently many of CSU's alumni hold fast to the belief that campus beauty is directly related to the quality of a university, as Simmons Park is not the only alumni-funded beautification project planned for the near future. Simmons Park will indeed enhance the attractiveness of CSU's campus, as will future beautification. However, perhaps the alumni should concentrate their efforts on projects which will directly benefit the students, rather than focusing all of their energy into outward appearances. The library could use more materials benefitting the study and research of graduate students. However, the library basement is already full of alumni-donated books not on display because of limited space. If the alumni groups and associations would join together in an effort to add on to the library, there would be space not only for the books collecting dust in the basement, but for new materials as well.

Student criticizes journalists/ethics To the editor: Perusing through the Vista, printed June 6, I noticed a review of "Garfield's" restaurant on page 6. I read the review which was highly favorable. It contained such quotes as "loads of fun", "choice restaurant", and "extremely friendly service." I do not wish to use this forum to

debate the validity of those statements, but I would like to question the Vista's ethics in choosing the reporter to write the review. Anyone who knows Mark Codner (the reviews' author), knows he is employed at Garfield's. He is a waiter as well as an assistant supervisor there. Can you justify giving Mark the story?

Was he assigned the story because he was the only reporter available, or were you helping him put a few more dollars in his pocket? Regardless of the reasons the decision was highly unethical. A reply would be greatly appreciated. Darryl J. Lanza

Associate editor replies: To Mr. Darryl J. Lanza, In reply to your letter to the editor, I would like to correct a few of your statements and defend the Vista's ethics. As in any job or field of study, journalists have a code of ethics and standards they must abide by. I am a member of a journalistic society called "The Society of Professional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi". I have vowed myself to uphold the standards and ethics of the society. In a review or news event, a reporter has to rid himself of preconceived notions or opinions so the review or story can be written in a non-biased fashion. As one of the Vista editors and a knowledgable restaurant employee (seven years experience ranging from

dishwashing to managing), I decided to write one restaurant review per week. As a reviewer, I can only draw from personal experience. When reviewing any eating establishment, I walk in with a clear mind and an empty stomach. I always try to obtain the most hedonistic eating experience possible. Although I do work at Garfield's, my review was non-biased and drawn from my personal dining experience there last week. If someone you (Mr. Lanza) know is giving me the title of assistant supervisor, you should tell them to give me a big raise. Such a title deserves a lot more an hour than I am presently making. Also the review (not "story") was

not assigned to me by anyone. I took on the job of restaurant reviewer on my own. If you believe I made money or accepted anything free by writing the review, I would suggest you get to know me. When I wrote the review on the Blue Moon Chinese Restaurant last semester, I was offered a free meal. I refused in a very kind and ethical manner. In journalism we have ethics just like every other field. The Vista and I were not "highly unethical" or unethical at all in writing the review. It was unbiased and showed both the good points and bad points of a dining experience. Sincerely, Mark A. Codner

Dimension News: World, state and local Education budget cut 10 percent The Oklahoma Senate approved a 10.2 percent cut Tuesday, for the state government's biggest expense, education. The cut was made for common schools with a 6.6 percent cut for vocational schools and a 10 percent cut for higher education, which is pending. A member of the Legislature said they purposely waited until the last minute to pass the bill to see if any money would become avalable. The Senate passed the bill 41 to 4.

FTC probing auto advertising In response to complaints concerning possible false auto advertising and misrepresentation of financing, the Federal Trade Commission was asked to investigate the advertising practices of some state automobile dealers. The Oklahoma Vehicle Commission chairman called for the investigation, referring to the recent interest rate war between auto dealers. The board was told of some dealers who were offering rates below the manufacturers'. During the investigation, the FTC will find out if these are actual financing rates or a ploy to get buyers into the showroom.

Ozone loss leads to extinction Scientists in Washington announced a loss of ozone over the Antarctica proves the greenhouse effect is real and presages a gradual warming of the Earth that threatens floods, drought, human misery and if not checked, eventual extinction of human species. One scientist said the world can expect significant changes in climate in the next few decades and if nothing is done to slow down ozone-depleting air pollution, temperatures around the world could rise as much as 10 degrees. The director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies said global temperaures should be nearly two degrees higher in 20 years, which will make the Earth the warmest it has been in the last 100,000 years.

Marcos assets frozen by judge Former Phillipine President Ferdinand Marcos and his wife Imelda have been barred by a Los Angeles judge to transfer or sell more than $750,000 in assests held in a California bank. This was done after the Phillipine government asked the Superior Court judge to freeze the assests in Lloyds Bank of Los Angeles until ownership is determined.

Congress questions space safety The presidential commission released a report to Congress concerning the Challenger accident, blaming the disaster on a faulty joint in the shuttle's right booster rocket, and faulted the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for insufficient safety precautions and bad management. Members of the commission pledged to Congress at the beginning of the hearings to look more critically at NASA. One Democrat told the NASA officials that everyone sould take off the gloves and get to the bottom of the problems at NASA.

Bill passed to aprove track lease The Oklahoma City Council approved a 75-year lease for the Remington Park racetrack to be built on public property north of the Oklahoma City zoo. The lease must still be approved by the Zoo Trust which owns most of the property on which the track will be built between Interstate 35 and Martin Luther King Blvd. After the park is in operation, the Zoo Trust will receive .5 percent of all bets placed on horses to win, place or show after the first $187 million.

rQu Guest commentary

Senate member supports lottery By Sharon Rankin

This is part one of a two-part series of a student's account in campaigning for the lottery. There have been many statements made about apathy on this campus and much has been written on the topic in the Vista. I wish to share with you some experiences from a not so apathetic student, myself. When I first began to run for student senate, as students signed my initial entry petition, they discussed many ideas and criticisms with me. It was from these comments that I created my campaign platform: 1. Pro Oklahoma State Lottery. 2. Against lowering of grades due to absenteeism. 3. Removal of the stop sign near the southwest corner of the Liberal Arts Building. My decision to support an Oklahoma Lottery is based on concern for the statewide educational cuts due to low oil prices and the Gramm-Rudman cuts. The lottery petition states that 50 percent of the net revenues will go to public education. The

revenue is estimated to be between 35 and 50 million dollars annually, which will be distributed throughout the state for education. It is for these reasons that it is in the interest of the students, faculty and staff members of Oklahoma state educational instituitions to consider this issue and decide where they stand. The Oklahoma Lottery Petition, which was filed May 5, requires 100,455 signatures and must be submitted to the state before August 2. After the names have been verified the question will be placed on the Nov. 4 ballot. All Oklahoma citizens who are registered to vote will be allowed to vote for or against it. If the question is passed we will have an Oklahoma Lottery as well as increased revenues to public education in Oklahoma. The elections were held and I was elected to office. COOL volunteers and myself worked diligently to organize a petition drive on campus. A meeting was held April 17 to gain even more volunteers. The meeting was

First came love...

somewhat successful and many people offered their time. The drive was beginning to come together. A few tough deadlines had barely been met. The fliers announcing the drive beginning Monday were not hung up until Friday, three days before. Then the news arrived. The petition would be withdrawn and a new one would be filed. Larry Wood, director of Lottery is OK gave me a copy of the new petition which I read a few days later. I found it to be more professional and easier to understand, although there was much more to read in this new petition. Once I decided to support the new petition, a meeting with Wood was set and we met at the Lottery is OK office in Lincoln Plaza. He informed me further of the new pay campaign (.25 per signature). At this time he also asked for my support and wanted me to be a member of the steering committee for Lottery is OK, which I then became a member of. With only three weeks available, the interim between spring and summer semesters, he gave me an option. Either work in the Oklahoma City area or organize some support in Delaware County which is located in northeast Oklahoma. My decision was to travel to Delaware County.

The Beach Boys, who performed Monday night at All-Sports Stadium following the Eighty-niners-

Denver Zephyrs game.

'Beach Boys' not up to par; Crowd's mood makes show By Kim Voynar Beach balls flying through the air, people walking around in shorts and sunglasses, and a hill crowded with bodies lying on blankets. It may have been All-Sports Stadium on a breezy June night instead of a sunny California beach, but the mood was the same. Review One could almost hear the crash of waves and smell a faint scent of salt water in the breeze. The baseball game was over,. the stage was set up, and the audience rose to its feet and cheered as the vintage cars carrying the Beach Boys drove onto the field. One by one, they ran through a double line of excited teenage girls to get to the stage, smiling and waving at the crowd on their way. As the band began playng a medley of their newer songs, the audience danced (more or less) to the beat, and got down to the

serious business of having a good time. The Beach Boys couldn't have chosen a better night to play Oklahoma City. For the first time in quite a while, there was a pleasantly cool breeze circulating. The thunder-storms, which pessimistic weather forecasters kept predicting all day, mysteriously disappeared. Even erratic Oklahoma weather knows better than to rain on the Beach Boys. The audience apparently either knew all along the weather would be perfect, or were willing to brave out the predicted storms. The stadium (including the hill) was nearly packed with fans. The Beach Boys were a little rusty on a few tunes (even Carl Wilson was a bit off-key on "Don't Worry Baby"), but the crowd was having too good of a time to care. Many of the songs are over 20 years old, and you can't expect the band to sound exactly the same as they did then. After all,

the Beach Boys really were "boys" when they started out, and two of the original members (Brian and Dennis Wilson) are dead. "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "Help Me Rhonda" and "Good Vibrations" were some of the songs which, in spite of the group's rustiness and the bad acoustics of the stadium, managed to sound good. The crowd especially seemed to like "California Girls", which the band changed to "Oklahoma Girls" half-way through the song. The "surfing" songs were also popular with the audience. The crowd swayed in unison to "Surfer Girl", and pretended to be surfing and swimming during "Surfin' Safari" and "Surfin USA". A Beach Boys concert is a unique experience. People go not just to hear the Beach Boys, but to let loose and enjoy the atmosphere. The Beach Boys put on a good show overall, but truly, it was the crowd that made the concert.

by Jane Meese Edmond residents were treated to an evening of jazz during a two-hour concert in Hafer park Thursday night. Central State University's Big Band and Civilized Tribe band entertained a group of picnickers despite the threat of rain. The Civilized Tribe, part of the larger Big Band, won the 1986 Southern Comfort Dixieland Jazz Competition and is invited to perform at the International Jazz Festival in Montreux, Switzerland July 18 and 19. The Big Band will travel to Europe and perform at several jazz festivals in Germany and Holland in addition to the "Tribe's" appearance at Montreux. Dr. Kent Kidwell, jazz band director, said that as of this week they were within $2,500 of having the money they need for the tour.

The group had to raise $40,000 for travel expenses for the the two-week tour. The Civilized Tribe performed again Saturday night in another outdoor concert on the grounds of the Oklahoma Museum of Art in Oklahoma City. Close to 1,500 people were present and spread over a large part of the museum lawn. Laura Scott, an Edmond resident, said "I was really surprised by the professionalism of the band and they were very impressive. My only complaint was that they weren't loud enough at times." Dr. Kidwell explained that most of their appearances in Europe would be outdoors and the band needed to get used to playing to large groups out in the open. He said that the open air concerts

were good experience for the band. When asked about the surprising amount of experience in the band, Kidwell said "About half of our band members already play professionally and are members of the musicians union." He added that the musicians are encouraged to perform as much as possible. "To enjoy this kind of exposure while still in college is quite an honor and thrill for these guys," says Dr. Kidwell. "I'm sure the band will remember this year as Southern Comfort Champs as one of the most challenging, educational and enjoyable periods of their lives." A free "Thank You" concert will be given on the north lawn of the Univeristy Center on June 24 at 7 p.m. Free watermelon will be on hand.

Buffet performs at the zoo By Derek Haney A second concert in the Oklahoma City Zoo Amphitheatre's "Summer Concert Series" entertained fans Sunday night with host Jimmy Buffet and the Coral Reefer Band. Fans started arriving about noon to insure a good view. By show time, almost 7,000 people had gathered to hear the "Island" style of music Buffet is famous for. At 7:30 p.m., the Coral Reefer Band came on stage to warm-up the crowd. After fifteen minutes, Buffet came out with guitar in hand.

Buffet played songs from most of his albums, including "Floriday's", his most recent release. After performing a rousing 90 minutes full of energetic songs such as "Changes in Latitudes" and "Cheeseburger in Paradise", the band took a 15 minute intermission. To open the second act, Buffet called on a Little Feat song by the name of "Old Folks Boogie". The crowd was delighted when he played the bongos and the intensity on stage was well projected into the audience through the tight sound the band maintained. Unlike the 89er's baseball game

performance given last year, Buffet was not held down to 45 minutes. With 20 years as a performer and recording artist Buffet had no problem filling the evening with a three hour entertainment event. The most enjoyable segment of the show was a group of ballads chosen at random from a pingpong ball lottery machine. By the end of the show, the band and the audience seemed to be exhausted. From the performance given during the zoo show, Buffet fans along the tour route are in for an outstanding show and a big thrill.

Workshop discusses psychology of arts' differing roles played in society By Gary S. Rea Among the new courses added to the department of Humanities and Foreign Languages in the fall, is a 4000 level workshop titled, "Psychology and Art". Teaching the workshop will be Dr. Eloise R. McCray, associate professor of humanities and foreign Ianguages. According to Dr. Clarence Parker, chairperson for the department of Humanities and Foreign Languages, the workshop will be "...an effort to understand the means of production and the

product of the various art forms within the framework of psychological theories". Parker said, "the course objectives include the study of some major psychological theories and the way in which they relate to artistic production. I'm sure this would include Freud and probably Jung (referring to Austrian neurologist and founder of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud, and Swiss psychologist, psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung), said Parker. He also said another objective will be to study the basic elements of each of the arts in-

Selection, low prices of Pump's restaurant equal excellent meal By Mark Codner Associate Editor In 1976 Pump's Restaurant opened its doors to the public at 5700 N. Western in a renovated gas station. Since then a second Pump's has been added at 617 S. Broadway in Edmond. Upon entering the establishment, memories of lower gas prices and days gone by are created by the use of old service station signs. Neon lights fill the restaurant with an antique glow. Old gas pumps in front of the restaurant add character and symbolize the concepts name.

Review

Pump's menu has a wide variety of product choices which are served during the day and at night. Choices can be made from appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, a salad menu or part of the menu titled Critic's Choice No. 1 and No. 2. Appetizer selection is good with 14 different products of which four the nacho lovers are sure to be satisfied with. The most original appetizer for this area is M.I.P.S. (Manhattan Island Potato Skins). The potatos are sliced to leave the white part in the middle and

skin all around the edges. Bacon and parmesan cheese are sprinkled on the top and sour cream is served on the side. Salad selection is excellent with choices ranging from pasta to nacho salads. Under the "Critic's Choice" heading are the entrees. The chicken products are excellent as well as the Fajitas and Oklahoma Crepes.

eluding painting, sculpture, architecture, literature, music and dance. The workshop, which is the only one of its kind offered on campus, will be open to those students who have completed a lower division humanities course. The workshop is to be offered for general education credit. Parker said the workshop will probably appeal to the interests of students having a variety of majors including psychology, psychology of education, art, music, drama and humanities. Parker stated that the workshop should intrigue those interested in the role of art in society, including its use as a tool in treating the mentally retarded, the mentally ill and inmates in prisons. "Psychology and Art" is one of five courses being added this fall in an effort to expand the department. The other new courses offered are "Myths and Symbols" and "Modern Art and Culture", which are both 3000 level courses. Also, 4000 level courses; "Ethics in Criminal Justice" and "Readings in Renaissance Studies" will be added.

The rest of the menu contains nine coices of burgers, seven different sandwiches, a seperate kid's menu and four desserts. Two other original products from Pump's are the "01 Fashion Milk Shake" and the "Hot Spiced Cider". The problem areas on the menu are the seafood items. The shrimp is deep fried and the other seafood products are made from sealegs (a product made from white fish, red coloring and crab). The service in Pump's is like some of its' Edmond competitors, extremely friendly but needs polish. Eight years in the food service business shows that Pump's and owner Kent Kistler are doing what has to be done in order to make profit and be successful. Pump's low prices and big portions are nice to see during a time when a lot of other commodities seem to be priced out of most consumers range.

Softball follows studies After summer school is out for the day, some students are taking their minds off of studies and vacations by playing on softball teams. Spring and summer softball leagues are found through churches, restaurants and city parks departments. Seven inning games or one hour, whichever comes first, are scheduled at night starting at 6:30 with the last game ending at 10:30. Fields are located at Main and Kelly and north of Second street on Sorghum Mill. Church leagues usually play on the individual church fields. In the restaurant league, which is not an official league, the teams

will sometimes play for kegs of beer. The loser buys the winners the keg and the other team being good sportsmen will stay and help with the winnings. Senior Bill Hauser said, "me and some friends of mine got together and found a spbnsor. We all paid $20 and got one of the best buys of our lives. "The games don't last too long so the people that aren't in shape don't have health problems, or we don't get beat too bad," said Hauser. "Everyone needs to have something outside of study or work to keep themself sane, and softball is definitely one of my favorites."

Hicks holds regional chairmanship By Mark Codner Associate Editor

As regional chairman for the American College Theatre Festival for the fall semester, Professor of Oral Communications, Dr. Lee Hicks is performing many duties. Hicks said, "The festival was started 18 years ago to showcase what was being done in college theatres. Since then it has gone beyond the showcasing." The festivals are held all over

the United States. Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mex.ico and Texas schools participate in region six. The festival involves workshop situations on costume designs, renderings, materials, set designs, acting, theatre critiquing and learning about the shows and creative processes involved. Hicks' role as chairman deals mainly with miscommunication problems and public relations. "I send out letters to encourage

Hazardous material removal progresses By J. Money A clean up process has begun in the Music Building to remove asbestos, a cancer causing agent, from certain areas of the old section of the building. Chairperson of the Music Department, Dr. Clarence Garder, said the decision was made to remove the asbestos during the time frame when the building would be most idle. The removal is being done in two phases, both of which are expected to be completed by the beginning of the fall semester. During the removal phase the process is being closely monitored by the Oklahoma Department of Labor. Phase one will concentrate on the removal of asbestos from the band rehearsal room and the south hallway in the east half of the building. Phase two will remove asbestos from the north hallway and the upstair classrooms. William Kemp, Acting Director of the Radiation and Special Hazards Division at the Oklahoma Health Education Department said the Music

Building was discovered to contain asbestos during the Oklahoma State Department of Health inspection mandated by Gov. George Nigh on Dec. 7, 1984, in which all state owned buildings were inspected for the material. Several buildings on campus were discovered to contain asbestos, but none of the buildings were deemed to be a imminent health hazard to the users. Asbestos is not considered to be a major health hazard except when it is released into the air in high concentrations. Kemp went on to say that the buildings are having its asbestos removed according to priority. The buildings that have younger people frequent them are having it removed first because the type of cancer that asbestos causes, Mesothelioma, has been known to have a long latency period that could last up to forty years. The Music Building removal process was picked to go sooner than the other buildings on campus because of some minor deterioration of asbestos containing materials in the building.

critiquing and exchange of thoughts and ideas. Hicks said, "The greatest and most lasting reward is when the

students come home with higher standards for themselves and what they want from their training."

Hicks also maintains his office to insure region six communications are flowing and festival entries are received. The festival dates start October 16 and run through December 6, with a regional festival January 18-24 in Fort Worth. Oklahoma's final state festival will be held on campus December 3-6. Two shows a day will be performed at Mitchell Hall. The shows will be open to the students. Student participation in the festival is rewarded. One or two of those writing critiques on the plays will be singled out and a number of students will be invited to a summer institute at the Kennedy Center in New York. Hicks said,"We always keep in mind that the festival is there for the people involved. The festival is serving the teachers and students through

Production supervisor re-lives acting career in spring drama By Mark Beutler

She was loud, boisterous and unrefined. "A hippie before there were hippies." Unlike her character as "Pig Woman" in "What I Did Last Summer," Jennifer Engles Rogers is a polished actress who knows how to get to the heart of a role. The Production Supervisor of CSU's Channel 2 television,

Asbestos found earlier this year is wrapped under plastic to avoid free flowing particles while removal is progressing.

Rogers has been acting since age five. But for the past several years, she has worked in broadcasting and has taught the subject at a number of universities. Her debut as Anna Trumbell (Pig Woman) in CSU Theater's recent production ended a 14-year absence from the stage. She said the absence made her a bit nervous opening night. "It was terrifying to walk back out there," she said. "I had lost the sense of control that I had earlier. So my opening night performance was not my best at all. I let the fear take over." But, she said, her fear turned to elation the following night. "I think the next night was my best performance," she said. "It was the highest natural high you could ever have. I was floating. I could have met every member of that audience and they would have been my family," she laughed. Rogers said she was compelled to audition for the play because of a recent personal crisis which left a void in her life. "1985 was a very difficult year for me," she said with some forethought. "I lost someone I cared about very much. In fact, it was the only real motivating factor in my life. She was also the ultimate director of every role. "I think I went out for the role in the beginning to try to find her, my mother. I thought I could find the link I had with her, but I didn't find it because she's not here anymore. But I did find myself and the confidence I had lost since I lost her," she said. Rogers said preparing for the play came as easy as it did when she was younger. However, she said finding the time to memorize her lines was sometimes an uneasy task. "It was difficult for me to

devote myself totally to the role like I did when I was a drama major and in college. I had to split myself and be a supervisor during the day and a film editor at night, and a mother and a wife. So when I was memorizing the lines, I never had any moments to devote totally to that need. If I ever had time, I would have to go out in the cow pasture to be alone," Rogers said. Rogers, who was graduated from a private college in Batesville, Ark., had a number of roles to her credit before entering broadcasting. Her accomplishments include working as Irene Ryan's (Granny's) double in "The Beverly Hillbillies." She also acted for over a year as a member of the entertainment troupe at Silver Dollar City, and made a movie with Shelly Winters entitled "Bloody Mama." Rogers said she has several long and short term goals. One of those she hopes to realize this summer. "My ultimate goal in life is to make my own movies, and act in them. Maybe not the type that go to Hollywood, but regional videos that people can learn from. I have a project in the works that I hope to get started on this summer that is called 'The Price of Your Pet.' "It's a docu-drama kind of thing, and I'll work with the veterinarians here in Edmond and we'll teach children how to care about their pets. In the process, we may also teach adults how to care," Rogers said. Although her role as Pig Woman is over now, Rogers said she will pursue another goal, and that is to continue growing as an actress. Like her recent counterpart, Rogers is a rebel, a "free spirit" in the true sense of the word.
