Summer enrollment increased over 1985 When summer enrollment ended June 9, figures showed 5,578 students enrolled in 28,924 credit hours, with a full time equivalence of 4,175 students. This is 710 of a one percent increase, said Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president. "This is a little above the enrollment last year. I'm pleased and I think everyone is pleased that enrollment figures are up," Darrell Gilliland, director of counseling said. With the budget cut and the decrease in personnel, you'd suspect the enrollment would decrease, but still there was an increase, Lillard said. The headcount enrollment is 37 in numbers over last years figures with the credit hours 48 less in numbers than the summer of 1985. The average age of the student this summer is 29 with last year it being 28. Lillard said this was accredited to the number of teachers who come in the summer to fulfill certificate requirements. Only 15 percent of the enrollment showed students under 21. Those 21-25 had a 30 percent enrollment and those over 25 had a 55 percent

enrollment. The average age of a student during the regular term is 27. Women represent 59 percent of the enrollment, with an enrollment count of 3,264. Men are in the minority this summer with an enrollment of 2,314. Countries outnumbered the states in enrollment with 52 countries represented. 28 states other than Oklahoma had enrolled for the summer. Students who did not enroll by June 2, when the summer session started, were faced with a $10 late fee. Gilliland said usually onethird of the enrollment waits until the first week of classes because they are not prepared to make decisions about attending summer school or perhaps they were out of town. The reason for the late fee is that there is extra paperwork involved when students enroll late and the counseling center encourages students to start classes the first day. Gilliland said two-thirds of the enrollment are those students who enroll before classes start.

Legislators approve 9.5 budget cut By Susan Green Editor Legislators recently approved a 9.5 percent budget cut to higher education for the fiscal year beginning July 1. This measure shows a 385.5 million dollar cut in funding, 40.3 million less than last year's budget. At midnight Sunday, the bill was awaiting Senate approval, as legislators waited to see if more funds would become available. Early in the session, state leaders made a commitment to keep the cuts to education as low as possible. The State Regents for Higher Education will now determine how the money is to be divided among colleges and universities. "It's the good news with the bad news," CSU President, Dr. Bill Lillard said. "Until we get the specific allocations from the Regents, we won't know what the budget for the university will be. Roughly we will receive 2.2 million dollars less than last year from state appropriated funds. "We hope to know in another week or so what the state appropriations part of the budget will be. We won't know the other fourth of the budget, which is fees and tuition, until after the enroll-

ment in the fall and spring." "There were no suprises. We expected and prepared for the cut," Lillard said. Lillard said the major difference students will notice is there may be fewer sections of classes offered. At this time, he doesn't expect the elimination of any courses, degrees or programs. Other changes may include reducing travel money and an occasional delay in purchasing supplies, materials and equipment. As for replacing the 25 faculty who retired, Lillard said each case will be reviewed to see who can be replaced and still meet the mandate of the budget. "We know we can't replace them all as well as we'd like to," Lillard said. Full-time CSU employees will not have to go part-time, have a redction in salary, or take a furlough without pay as a result of the budget cut, he said. Lillard said there will be no pay raises given across the board, but if funds are available, those deserving a promotion will receive the pay that goes with the promotion. Hopefuls for raises include those receiving a doctorate and those who are to receive increments of

adding an additional year of eventually get better. study. "Economic cycles don't always Although the budget situation may put a damper on certain stay in depressions or the Golden plans, expenditures and Era. All in all it will tend to level paychecks in the next year, Lillard out, whether it rises or falls to one feels the economic situation will or the other.

"I'm not saying it won't get woise, I just think since business industries and the agriculture will increase, the situation will get better, since the economy goes in a cycle," Lillard said.

Perry says time to move on By Susan Green Dr. James Perry, vice president for academic affairs since 1983 has announced his resignation, stating the time has come for him to devote his energy to another area. "The time has come for me to move on. I'm excited and ready to go," Perry said. Perry says he has been very pleased at CSU and feels he has done an excellent job in fulfilling his position. "There has been no other person who has had a big a challenge as I. My challenge involved the North Central Association. I managed to pull the chestnuts out of the fire and the Association said our study was an excellent self-styled document," Perry said. In an earlier interview with the Vista, Perry said he was ready to move up in the world and ready to run the show. Perry still feels this way and says he has absolute confidence in his ability to do so. "I am firm in my belief that I know what it takes to rally the support of faculty and co-workers to make it an organized and exciting place to work," Perry said.

Perry has no specific plans at the present time, but says he is going to explore a myriad of options. He added he is open to private enterprises as well as academics, but the academics would have to have a different style of opportunity before he jumped back into it. Perry says not by the stretch of the imagination did he accomplish all the goals he set as vice president, not even scratching the surface. Two things he is the most happy with is giving hope to a large group of a faculty and the success with North Central. "I think CSU is a fine institute with a lot of potential. There will come a day when more of that potential will be tapped and the university will go on to greater levels of success, Perry said. "My years here have been good years, personally and professionally." The Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges will meet Friday to consider Perry's resignation as well as the affective date. President Dr. Bill Lillard said at this time it would be unappropriate to comment on Perry's resignation until the Board makes its decision.

Budget cut tolerable? By Susan Green Editor When someone gets something taken away from them, it usually makes the person unhappy, as with CSU getting its budget cut. The unhappiness comes from having to adapt to the change, whether it deals with no raises, losing a job, or tolerating crammed classrooms. Although things aren't as good as they could be, the administration is keeping an optimistic attitude. They have done their best, among the changes, to keep the quality of education at its best for the students: President, Dr. Bill Lillard said, "There may be some inconveniences, but what's needed to continue a quality education will be there," he said. I think its an advantage that we have an administration which cares about each student and his education. A few changes may take awhile to get use to, such as crowded classrooms and possibly having introductory and intermediate classes combined. Surely students can tolerate the crowd as long as he continues receiving the instruction and teaching. Another change involves faculty and staff. For the summer, there had to be a reduction, but the ones who remained maintained their salary. They just won't get any raises. Granted they should receive raises for the extra work it may take to teach a larger class, but at least they still have a job or didn't take a cut in pay. The situation may be tougher in the fall when the enrollment is larger, therefore causing some of the professors to add sections to their schedule. As far as replacing those professors who retired, it will be done according to the need in the area they taught. The changes will be there but they can be tolerated.

L etters Smell in business building changes student's route Since this is my first year at Central State University, much of the campus is still new to me. There are buildings and areas that I have yet to discover. But the last two semesters have given me a good introduction to the Liberal Arts and the Communications Buildings. This summer I again make my way from one to the other for my classes. The route is usually the same: I follow the sidewalks from the west end of the Liberal Arts Building to the east entrance of the Communications

Building. Halfway between, I go briefly through the south Business Building, which is the subject of this commentary. Why does it always smell like a gym locker in that Business Building? I first noticed it last fall. One leaves the fresh air of open campus and confronts the musty stale atmosphere of that structure. At first I passed it off as a breakdown of the system. Were the filters clogged? But as time passed, the problem remained. During the cold weather I thought perhaps it was the result of bodies overheated from heavy

winter coats. But now summer is here and it seems worse. Do they share the same system as the Broncho Field House? Is that air being recirculated over here? Surely something can be done about it. I don't have any classes in the building, but I have sympathy for those who do. I don't know how they can stand it. Perhaps they have gotten used to it. I certainly haven't, which is why I've now decided to change my route and go around the building instead. Martha Giglio

Processed, paid, validated By Mark Codner Associate Editor It all started seven years ago. In the true American spirit, I asked the government to give me a social security number. Three years later, in the fall of 1981, I enrolled in the university's freshmen class. Since that fateful year, the computer files in the administration building have been collecting facts and figures on several different aspects of my life. The computer contains knowledge about my state of health, classes, grades, grade point, financial holds, where I live, where I can be found during two hours Monday - Friday and exactly who I am. So why do I have to get my iden-

tification card validated before I can check out a library book? Every semester, each student pays for an identification card whether they have one or not. Everyone must have their cards validated for each semester. Instead of wasting time and personnel validating ID cards why don't we run our computers to the full potential? The information is already filed away and ready to be read. All we have to do is run existing computer lines into the computers that don't contain student information. Employees working for the university could go to bed at night peacefully knowing that the students are paid up and valid. The time and personnel saved would

pay for the extra lines and the lines would create a more efficient process. Students wouldn't have to pay the extra money every semester for the IDs when they enroll. Why not try my solution? Hook up the existing terminals to the other buildings. Then look up my wonderful government issued number direct from the administration building. Everyone who needs to know I am a student here will know because the computer will show them I have paid my tuition, my activity fee, my ID fee (if the administration saved this fee), who I am, where I am during two hours of the day Monday - Friday and that I am valid.

Chief Justice Burger retires President Reagan announced Tuesday the retirement of Warren Burger, chief justice of the United States. Burger wrote in his retirement letter that he wants to leave shortly after the court ends its session July 10, so he can use his time to head the bicentennial celebration of the Constitution. Reagan will nominate William Rehnquist to succeed Burger, to become the 16th head of the Supreme Court. Burger said if it were not for the bicenntenial, he would not have retired.

Needed: students to get involved budget 80 million rather than 40 million? These legislators have very difficult administrative decisions to make which will effect everyone in the state. It is their responsibility to take all considerations into account as they make their budget decisions. We, the students, should not be fooled into thinking otherwise and we should be aware of the politics involved. However, there

By Sharon Rankin Last week our state education budget was cut 40.3 million dollars for the fiscal year beginning July 1. State agencies' budgets were cut 340 million. Given the shortage of funds for our state budget, the question is: if the legislators knew that education was going to receive 40 million dollars from a state lottery, would they have cut the

Snuff dismissed as death cause A Houston cancer surgeon announced Tuesday something other than the smokeless tobacco, snuff, was the cause of cancer which killed Sean Marsee of Ada. Surgeon Dr. Robert Myers felt this was so, from examining tissue taken from the victim's mouth, reviewing the sequence of events in the patient's decline and the fact he was only 19. He told Marsee's mother his decision was based on a clinical assessment. Myers said a can of snuff contains 15 lethal doses of nicotine.

Guest commentary

Law ruled unconstitutional A controversial law, expanding that the state Department of Correction's role in the sentencing of young, nonviolent offenders and allowing the agency to decide whether some would serve time in prison, ruled the Nonviolent Intermediate Offenders Act unconstitutional. The law provides that when a person between the ages of 18 and 22, or a juvenile certified to stand trial as an adult, is convicted of a nonviolent crime, a judge could choose to give him a defered sentence or an indefinite sentence in the custody of the Department of Corrections. State Attorney General Mike Turpen said the law creates the opportunity for creative sentencing and is criticised by prosecutors.

be steps taken to observe and even possibly lobby for our special interest. We need some type of statewide organized political group to keep the legislators in tune with student needs of the time. That may be a sound thought experiment but in reality organizing could be almost impossible on this campus. Being a commuter college, it is very difficult for many students to participate. According to Student Association President Jeff Shilling, there are 45 student senate seats of which 22 are waiting to be filled the first few weeks of the fall semester. Once these senate seats are filled, we as students may be able to improve our library and make other needed changes. Could it possibly be our responsibility to become involved in order to make some of these changes and help improve our campus?

Cyanide found in Excedrin After confirming cyanide was found in capsules from a bottle of Excedrin found in the home of a woman who died of poisoning, the maker of the aspirin asked stores nationwide to stop selling the product. Sue Snow ,40, of Washington collapsed in her home and died later in the hospital. This is the 16th case of cyanide related deaths due to drug-tampering. An official from Excedrin said the company has received no threats or communication related to the poisoning.

Oklahoma City Chamber Players, 1986 concert season begins at 3 p.m. June 29 at Norick Art Center. Ticket information is available at 942-5387.

Robert Redford portrays Tom Logan, a New York City assistant district attorney, in "Legal Eagles", a comedy-thriller about art fraud and murder. Logan's brilliant career has made him a front-runner in the race for district attorney, until he encounters Laura Kelly, portrayed by Debra Winger. Kelly is a feisty defense attorney who coerces him into personally handling the Chelsea Deardon case. Immediately, Logan is drawn into the unfamiliar world of art connoisseurs. Chelsea Deardon, played by Daryl Hannah, was eight when her famous artist father and many of his unsold paintings perished in a fire. Eighteen years later she is arrested for attempting to steal a painting that supposedly was destroyed in the fire. Chelsea has an almost ethereal quality about her. Logan finds her on his doorstep after the original charges are dropped. She tells him she is being followed and wants him to protect her.

Logan is drawn to Chelsea, but realizes he must keep his distance from her and takes her home. She keeps pursuing him until she is arrested for the murder of Victor Taft, owner of a prestigious art gallery. She is arrested in Logan's apartment and Logan eventually loses his job over alleged improprieties in her case. Kelly then convinces Logan that combining their considerable legal talents will get Chelsea acquitted. They discover she hasn't always told them the truth. The evidence against her is overwhelming, and Logan and Kelly soon realize even though she might not be guilty, Chelsea is certainly far from innocent. Redford's acting ability really shines in "Legal Eagles". He is especially convincing in the courtroom scenes as the brilliant defense attorney. Another side of Logan's character is seen outside the courtroom. Redford displays his comedic talents in the film. Logan is

The plot is very complicated and the audience is kept so busy trying to keep the facts straight that the suspense is wasted. Some of the funniest moments are also the most suspenseful and the attempts at both are distracting.

bumbling and absent-minded at times, especially when nervous, and Logan is nervous a lot in this movie. Winger may look fragile at times but all she has to do is speak and the audience sits up and takes notice. Her deep, almost gravelly voice lends credibility to her performance as the tough-talking, feisty defense attorney. Daryl Hannah was an excellent choice for the strange, mystical Chelsea Deardon. "Legal Eagles" is supposed to be a comedy and a thriller but is lacking in both areas. Redford and Winger make an excellent team and many of their scenes are funny. Unfortunately the overall effect is nothing more than "cute".

Miss Leesa Cornett of Edmond, a CSU sophomore was one of the 10 finalists in the recent Miss Oklahoma Pageant at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa. Shown in swimsuit, Cornett gives a smile to the judges.

At the Miss Oklahoma Pageant held in Tulsa June 11-14, Edmond and CSU were represented by three individuals, two of which made it to the finals and one of those winning the title of Miss Oklahoma. Miss Leesa Cornett, a Newcastle sophomore and Miss CSU Jenny Fowler were the two CSU students competing in the pageant. Cornett ,19, recently won the title of Miss Tulsa State Fair, whom she represented in the Miss Oklahoma Pageant. After three nights of competition, Cornett advanced to the semi-finals and on to the finals on Saturday. "I felt like I won Miss America. At 19, you usually don't get that high. I felt like I really accomplished something. I was pleased because that was my goal, all I wanted to do," Cornett said. In the talent competition, Cornett sang, "After You've Gone," and "As Long As He Needs Me," on Wednesday evening. Thursday evening was the swimsuit competition followed by the evening gown competition on Friday evening. Cornett has been competing in pageants for nine years in Oklahoma. This is her second year in the Miss Oklahoma Pageant. In 1985 she won the nonfinalist talent competition. Fowler, an Edmond senior competed Wednesday night in the talent competiton with the song, "The Lady's in Love" and also in the swimsuit and evening gown competition. Fowler, 22, majoring in vocal performance did not make it to the finals. Miss Mignon Merchent of Edmond won the title of Miss Oklahoma.

Shakespeare: Comedy of Errors By Martha Giglio Twinkling fireflies darted brightly through the audience Sunday evening as it enthusiastically applauded the "Comedy of Errors" performance in Hafer Park. Although Saturday's performance was forced to the Armory due to rain, both Friday and Sunday's performances were played beneath bright skies. CSU student M. Darin Young was among the cast of the play, which is about two sets of twin brothers who were separated at birth in a shipwreck. Their father attempts to find the lost son and servant. When he turns up in the city where they're living, and his other son and servant also happen by, a series of humorous mistaken identities takes place. The comedy

which results is where the play draws its name. The audience, spread out on the lawn on blankets and lawn chairs, laughed frequently throughout, obviously enjoying the humor of the many errors. Sipping soft drinks and wine coolers, they seemed to have no trouble following the story, whose dialogue was punctuated with the jokes, puns and plays-on-words which Shakespeare is famous for. Even the children watching laughed often at the action on stage. Applause and cheers broke out when a surprise was revealed near the end of the play. Young played Dr. Pinch, a school teacher who is interested in spiritualism. He was especially enjoyed by the crowd when he at-

tempted to exorcise one brother and servant, whom townspeople were convinced were possessed due to their ignorance and denial of what their twins had actually done. This is Young's first appearance with Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park. He performed in CSU's production of "Sabrina Fair" last semester. Young, a junior, is an Ancient History and Creative Studies major and considers acting a hobby. "I'm really enjoying this role. It's a lot of fun. Tell everyone to come out and see the play. It's free, and it's really not long, " he said. The play runs for two more weekends at 8 p.m June 20-22 and June 27-29 in Hafer Park.

What looks like an intersection on the streets of Edmond is only a replica of one, located behind the university at the South Central Safety Education Institute. Some of the programs which use the driving range are drivers education, drivers improvement, physical and mental handicapped and commercial operators.

By Evelyn Nah On April 18, 1986, during it's regular meeting, the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges accepted the low competitive bid from American Fidelity Assurance Company to underwrite the group health insurance program. The new group health insurance serves only full time employees and will go into effect on July 1. The switch was made basically due to the rising premium of the

Drivers individual needs faced at institute By Susan Green In operation since the late 1960's, the South Central Driving Institute is the only institution of its kind in this region. The institute deals with problems drivers face daily. Located behind the university, the driving range began operation in April 1971, when Lonnie Gilliland Sr. and Steve Sheppard designed and modified the course after looking at several other ranges. With cars owned by CSU, instructors teach several programs to a variety of people. The four main programs that the institute gives instruction in are driver's education, driver improvement, the physical and mentally handicapped and commercial operators. "It is designed to help with all driving problems," Dr. Lonnie Gilliland, director and professor of the safety education institute said. Each group of students is directed according to need. Driver education students go through a four phase program: 1)learning to drive in classroom, 2)simulator use, 3) on the range with controlled movement and 4) on the streets. Driver improvement, an eight

hour course is the second program offered by the institute and is taught in the classroom. Students are from Oklahoma and states such as Texas and California. "When a citizen gets his license taken away from him, a judge will tell him about our driving school", Gilliland said. "A student will get two points taken off his record after he has completed the eight hour course, which will allow him to retain his license," he added. A third program is instruction for the physical and mentally handicapped. The institute instructs students state-wide and has had inquiries from Germany, Israel and England. In the past the institute has taught driving to the brain damaged, those with muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, paraplegics, quadraplegics and the deaf. "Of the 600 handicapped who have gone through the program, 88 percent were succesful in attaining a driver's license," Gilliland said. "Those people are awfully easy to have patience with. They are tough with themselves, and will do anything to please us. They

Copy center's laser printer to provide quality copies By Martha Giglio Students and faculty who've longed for higher quality copies will find better resolution and print provided by a new laser printer, located in the University Copy Center. Manager of the University Bookstore, Mr. Art Robinson said it is capable of handling IBM compatible 5 Vi inch floppy discs. "Rather than using the old dotmatrix system for printing, the laser printer will deliver better quality copies. Prices have not been set yet, but will probably be in the $1.50 to $1.75 per page range. "The machine will be available for general use, and students who

prepare reports on IBM computers on campus, for example, will be able to obtain copies from their IBM discs. "Instructors will find it easier to maintain an up-to-date syllabus on disk, making it a simple matter to make semester changes and then print out an updated syllabus," Robinson continued. Also, other departments can take advantage of the service by making up floppies which the Center will then print for them. The printer will be set up and operational as soon as the Center receives the computer necessary for its operation. However, Robinson stated arrangements could be made to use it now if necessary.

current Blue Cross, Blue Shields program and also due to the restricted budget of CSU. The new insurance program includes changes of carrier and coverage plus premium adjustment. Instead of the traditional Basic, Major Medical, a Comprehensive Health Insurance Plan will be the new coverage form. With this new program, each subscriber is covered $1,000,000 per life time and not $500,000 as before. The Annual Cost Deductible decreases to $200 from $250 per covered individual with no more than 3 deductibles per family per contract year. Accidental Injury benefits increases to $500. However, Coinsurance and Stop Loss will remain the same at 8020 on Coinsurance and $1000 on Stop Loss. The change in underwriters will necessitate each eligible employee to complete an application card, which can be obtained from the Personnel Office.

Teachers safe By J Money Nineteen teachers at CSU were approved for tenure earlier this year by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges. The grants of tenure are scheduled to take effect at the beginning of the 1986-1987 academic year. When a teacher is granted tenure, it means being removed from a probationary status. More importantly, if staff must be let go because of budget cuts, teachers not granted tenure are the first to go Dr. Gordon Allen of the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges explained that a teacher must complete three years on probationary status in order to apply for tenure. Upon applying, tenure members from the teacher's department would vote on recommending tenure. From there it would go up the ladder to the Office of the President, who would then recommend the teacher(s) to the board for tenure. According to a letter released from the Office of the President, the teachers granted tenure earlier this year received a favorable tenure vote in 1980 or 1981, but were not recommended at that time because of a tenure limitation of 65 (sixty five) percent. The following teachers were granted tenure: COLLEGEOF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Dr. Richard D. Allen, Associate Professor, Dept. of Management Dr. William Roberts, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Admin.

Nathan's Restaurant serves fresh Boston seafood and cherrywood smoked prime rib from the location at 3300 south Broadway.

Nathan's receives rave review

By Mark Codner Associate Editor In an excellent remodeling job, Westoak's restaurant, 3300 south Broadway, was transformed into Nathan's. The interior is tastefully decorated and the club is inviting. Being established on the Edmond dining scene for well over a year, Nathan's is here to stay. The establishments featured menu items are Prime Rib (which is lightly smoked over Pennsylvania cherrywood) and fresh Boston seafood.

Swimming for ID holders; fieldhouse pool available Swimming is available to students with valid ID cards at the Broncho fieldhouse pool from 2-5:00 everyday Monday thru Thursday. The pool is open from 7:30 9:30 on Tuesday and Thursday nights.

My personal favorites are Duck a l'orange, which is described as one-half young tender Long Island duckling, slow roasted and served with a rich orange sauce, and the Louisiana Chicken Saute

On weekends, recreational use is permitted from 2 - 3:30 and laps from 3:30 - 5. Any person with a valid ID or accompanied by a ID holder may use the facilities. On Fridays, the pool will be closed.

Review Some other interesting entrees served in combinations are Snow Crab and Prime Rib, Shrimp Scampi and Prime Rib and Lobster Tail and Prime Rib. All of the entrees are served with a "hot baked San Francisco sourdough bread", choice of potato and either a Nathan's salad or Fishmarket salad. Appetizer selection is good, but I would like to see something specially prepared for the Edmond area with the Boston seafood.

Two soups are offered which are excellent; homemade New England Clam Chowder and Cajun Gumbo. For the kids, a seperate section is available. Overall Nathan's menu is excellent, but the fried seafood section could have probably been left off. The service was outstanding. Ashtrays were capped so the ashes didn't pile up, or end up on the table and every service etiquette rule was gracefully fulfilled. Nathan's is an excellent restaurant for attractive food and fine service. The establishment has the fresh seafood market all to itself in Edmond and I would put it up against any seafood establishment in Oklahoma City.

counseling and relocation aid available to displaced employees in the oil and gas service industries. Under the Trade Adjustment Assistant Act, employees in industries whose job loss can be traced to imports are eligible for job training and relocation assistance. Oil and gas industry employees are not currently eligible for such aid. The amendment was agreed to unanimously following a procedural vote on whether or not to consider it as part of an end-ofthe-fiscal-year funding bill. The roll call vote on the procedural question was 55-40. On April 30, the Senate unanimously passed a resolution cosponsored by Boren and Nickles calling on the President to offer these same job services to oil and gas workers. Nickles said, "These workers

are unemployed because of imports of low priced oil from the Middle East, and fairness dictates that they be treated just as any other worker whose unemployment can be traced to imports." Boren said, "The TAA program was designed for persons thrown out of work through no fault of their own as a result of unfair imports. Oil industry workers are being laid off today because of prices that have been dictated by world market conditions just as much as have auto workers, textile workers and others who are subject to receiving TAA. "For some reason double standards are used when the word 'oil' is mentioned and people who are normally compassionate, caring individuals turn a deaf ear to helping those in this critical industry. We are all Americans and we need to pull together as Americans," Boren and Nickles said.

Museum exhibits 'Art Expo' contest By Candy Mullen

Helen Chase and Jess Mengel check in entries for the Edmond Art Association "Juried Expo '86".

Art Expo '86, jurored by Ken Stout, has been on display in the Central State University Museum since June 1 and will run through June 28. The Expo is showing 142 works of art, which are judged in four catagories. First, second and third place awards are given in each category. Approximatly 80 works were juried out in the beginning because of the limited space in the museum. "This is the first year the Central State University has been the host of the Expo, but we hope in the future this will be its permanent home," said William Wallo, director of the museum. Commenting on the pieces

chosen for awards, Stout said, "I looked for works in which the poetry of the composition hit me before the technique or subject matter did. I favored the less facile and the more obsessive pieces over those which displayed more expertise but less search." Stout is a professor of drawing and painting at the University of Arkansas. He holds an MFA from Indiana University and has many years experience as an artist, teacher and juror. "We were very pleased by the turn out and the number of entries," said Wallo. "I might not have chosen the same pieces but I find Stout's choices valid. The nice thing about having a jury is that it brings on discussion even if you don't agree on the choices."
