Observance marks sixth change in university history By Barbara Howry Managing Editor

New faculty posts, created in budget TAHLEQUAH, Okla (AP) Twenty Oklahoma colleges will receive 117 new faculty members in the $718.6 million budget approved Friday by the State Regents. 0" for Higher Education. Regents Chair George Kaiser said the new faculty positions will help reduce class sizes, improve academic counseling and quiet a common corn, plant that too many classes are taught • by graduate students. Also included are merit-based faculty salary increases, which average 5.1 percent and are as high as 15 percent.

AIDS vaccine to be tried by Salk SAN DIEGO (AP)--Polio vaccine pioneer Jonas Salk said he will be the first uninfected person to be injected with his experimental AIDS vaccine. Salk plans to inject himself before the end of the year, and said he hopes to show that the vaccine is safe for the next group of uninfected volunteers: celibate nuns and priests. Instead of only preventing an initial infection from occuring, Salk's vaccine should boost the body's immune defenses after the AIDS virus has already been established_ The 76-year-old pioneer said he injected himself with a 1942 influenza vaccine as well as his 1952 polio vaccine.

Long, hot summer for New Yorkers NEW YORK (AP)—Summer in the Big Apple may not be much fun for millions of kids if Mayor David Dinkins' "doomsday budget" is adopted this week as proposed. Central Park's polar bears may need a new home, toilets at Coney Island will be shut off, beaches will close, pools will be drained in early August and playgrounds will be littered with glass and graffiti. No agency is being spared as city leaders try to close a $3.5 billion gap this week in the $29 billion budget. More than 10,000 workers lost their jobs Friday. Taxes are being raised and services are drastically being cut. "It's not going to be a terrific summer," said Parks Commissioner Betsy Gotbaum. "Expect a lot of very unhappy people." V

It's now official. Central State University became the University of Central Oklahoma in ceremonies at 9 a.m. Monday when President Bill Lillard and three students raised a UCO flag at Centennial Square. Over 200 dignitaries, administrators, professors, staff and students gathered to witness the sixth name change for the university. Student Association's Todd Dealy served as master of ceremonies and introduced Lillard as the first speaker. Lillard said this would mark the first time ever Oklahoma would be included in the name of the university. Then he said it was about time to have Oklahoma in the name, the crowd responded with applause. Governor George Nigh was the next speaker and he said the name change was important for UCO's future. Nigh said his high school students used to ask him why they had to study Oklahoma history. He said it was important for people to know where they have been as they move into the future. Although Governor David Walters was listed on the program, he did not attend. He sent a representative to read a document proclaiming July 1, 1991 as the University of Central Oklahoma Day. Other congratulatory messages were added from Higher Education Chancellor Dr. Hans Brisch, Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges Past President Belva Howard, Oklahoma State Representative Ray Vaughn, Edmond Mayor Randel Shadid and Edmond Chamber of Commerce President Ruth Boss. After the CSU flag had been taken down and the UCO flag raised, the crowd joined in singing the school's alma mater, which had been rewritten to reflect the name change. V

Summer enrollment hits all-time high By Kathy Karr Staff Writer Summer enrollment at the University of Central Oklahoma is at an all-time high with 6,398 students attending, an increase of 366 over last summer's figure. "I see that we're up, particularly at the sophomore, junior, senior and graduate level," said Darrell E. Gilliland, admissions and records director. The number of students enrolled in all classifications has increased. Enrollment of graduate students has risen 5.7 percent, senior enrollment 8.3 percent, junior enrollment 7.1 percent, sophomore enrollment

6.8 percent and freshman enrollment .8 percent, Gilliland said. "We seem to have more continuing students this year than we've had in other semesters. I'm talking about those that went in the spring semester and just go ahead and enroll in the summer term," he said. Another possible reason for the increase, Gilliland said, is students who live in the Edmond area, but attend other institutions, return home for summer and take classes at UCO to transfer back to their schools. The number of hours taken by students is used to calculate UCO's full-time equivalency (FTE), which is also the highest ever. FIE is the average hour load of all stu-

dents. For undergraduates the FIE is calculated by adding the total number of hours students are enrolled and dividing that number by 7.5. For graduate students the number of hours students are enrolled is divided by six. Graduate and undergraduate totals are then added to get the FTE figures. "Essentially, that (FTE) will take all of your students, both part-time and full-time and give them a full-time equivalency," said Laura Tyree, institutional research and planning assistant. HE figures can be used to determine the number of faculty needed, program budgeting, faculty/student ratios and the number of courses needed, Tyree said. V

End of an era he king is dead. Long live the king, whoever that may come to be in some future time. In reality the king is not dead, he is just retiring. Speculation about a successor for Central State University's President Bill Lillard is already running rampant. The decision is not likely to be an easy one. Wayne Salisbury, president of the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges said he expects a large field of possible candidates . Salisbury said the regents may actually seek professional help to find a new president. With the wealth of local talent available this would seem unnecessary. There are a number of highly qualified people right here, so why the need for an extensive search. Joyce Mounce has a great deal of experience and could be the first woman president. Dr. Clyde Jacob is highly qualified and could be the first black president. Of course, Gov. George Nigh is available and has been endorced by several members of the media. It is hoped the regents find someone with a feel for what is best for the University. One thing is sure. Lillard is leaving a very large pair of shoes to fill.

T

Politically incorrect ne of the last vestiges of the McCarthy era, one of the most oppressive in American history, is finally coming to an end. President Bush and the Republican party have at last seen fit to take a step toward freedom. Bush reached an agreement with the American Civil Liberties Union to support legislation removing almost all of the 250,000 names presently on the "ideologically unacceptable" persons list. These were people who were refused visas because they were not "politically correct." The ideological exclusion was passed in the form of the McCarran-Walter Immigration Act of 1952, a time when Americans were fmding communists under every bed. Since then, the act has been used to keep out such undesirables as Nobel laureate Pablo Neruda and John Lennon. The agreement Bush made is largely symbolic because Congress last year forbade the exclusion of people based on their beliefs. But symbols are sometimes important.

s a transfer student at UCO I begin to wonder about a lot of things (I stole this idea from a Christian author named Cecil Hook, so I'm not original, sue me.) I wonder when we will get free books for classes instead of adding another $200 to our tuition? I wonder when we will get a closer parking space like every one is crying for? I wonder when the "pro-lifers" and the "pro-choicers" will get the idea that they won't change anybody's opinion and that I don't care? I wonder, will our "esteemed" governor tear our state apart or be recalled? I wonder, will the voters of our fair state will ever get smart and try to recall Davey Walters? I wonder if Gaylord will finally realize no one likes him and move to Alaska? I wonder if my GPA will get any better?

A

I wonder if Sting and other "environmentally aware" rock stars will ever get a seat in the U.N.? I wonder if the Democrats will even try to run in the presidential election? I wonder if President Bush watches Saturday Night Live? I wonder if Quayle is going to star in the new "Mickey Mouse Club" television series? I wonder what Mikey Dukakis is doing, now that his reputation is down the tubes? I wonder when Sly Stallone will figure out he can't act? I wonder, since World War II was called "the Big One" and Vietnam was called the "10,000 Day War," will the war against Iraq be called "The War that Everyone Capitalized On?" I wonder when the student government will get a life? I wonder when the citizens of Oklahoma will pay more attention to education than sports? I wonder when Bill Cosby will

introduce a white character as a regular on one of his shows? I wonder when the air conditioners in the Liberal Arts and Communications Buildings will be turned on at the appropriate time(like when it gets hot) and turned off when they should be (like when it gets cold). I wonder if Bart Simpson will replace the bald eagle as the national symbol? I wonder, since we look for "peace" in this country so much, why do we allow people to have assault rifles? (They are called "assault rifles" for a reason you know.) I wonder, in this "New World Order," exactly what are we supposed to order? I wonder if the LAPD has scorecards? I wonder if anyone actually cares about anything? —Travis Clark UCO student

as everyone on campus ry gone soft in the head? Could it be that no one has a sense of irritation when visiting our library (loosely defined). If not, lose two or three hours searching for a current paper. Conditions in 1984 were bad enough, since the library was running out of space, but now the resource lists are still nearly the same after eight years. Can a university survive such a stagnation of resources without a significant cost to the average student's education? You the student must answer that. Naturally, everyone on campus knows the library resources are aged and incomplete, but they got there because of some real fiscal failures in the office of higher edu-

cation. And also because of political considerations which are still choking our share of the tax money we pay, and the many increases in tuition without capital improvement continues. But there is hope! So what can the average student of UCO do about these grim circumstances? How about calling the State Regents for Higher Education and telling them how you feel about a library with no money to expand the life sciences, communications and modern languages areas. Seize the day. Call the Regents office at 524-9170 and 521-3308. You will make a significant difference. Everyone who depends on this school including faculty should

call. Then, call your senator and state House of Representatives and tell them how you feel about financing OU and OSU projects with money dsperately needed at UCO. Remember, they are the ones who recommended the raise in tuition for the fifth or sixth time. If you don't call, don't complain about our situation. We can't change anything without doing something, and the time to act is now! Resources are tight, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease, otherwise we'd still be a "college." Don't condemn us to a fate of "regional university" for the future. We've arrived but without the resources. —Greg Smith UCO graduate

Let's play What's My Crime

By Jo Pydynkowsky Guest Columnist One of the most laughable controversies of late is the dehate over whether or not executions should be televised. The Saudis should get a big kick out of this one. What bothers me isn't whether or not they'll be televised, but how soon. I can see it now. "Ladies and gentlemen I'm Bink Winkman and it's time for 'WHAT's MY CRIME!' Today's contestants, Marsha and Fred, will try to guess the crimes of our panelists. The winner will receive a trip for two to the first televised execution, and a 'Let's Burn the Creep' preexecution party. Let's play WHAT's MY CRIME!'

"Our first panelist was sentenced to 20 years in prison and a $5,000 fine. Marsha, can you name that crime?" "Grand Larceny?" Bzzzzz! "Sorry, wrong answer. Fred?" "Petty theft?" Bzzzzz! "Sorry, try again Marsha." "Could it be shoplifting a candy bar because he was hungry?" DING DING DING!!! "That's it!" "Our next panelist was sentenced to three years, and a $1 million fine. Fred?" "I'd like to buy a vowel Bink." "Sorry, Marsha?" "Murder?" Bzzzzz! "Excellent guess, but no. Fred?" "Kidnapping?" Bzzzzz! No. Marsha?" "Stock fraud and embezzlement of $30 million?" DING DING DING!!! "Marsha does it again folks. Now Marsha, if you guess the next question you'll win the bonus prize."

"Our final panelist was given four years, three of which were suspended, and ordered to pay a $1 fine. Can you name that crime?" "Second degree manslaughter for killing his wife?" DING DING DING!!! "You've done it Marsha. Not only will you attend the first televised executions, but you Marsha will push the plunger for the lethal injection!" "I'm speechless. It's more than I ever hoped for. Just think, I'm going to be the one to ice that SOB."

I know this sounds ridiculous and could never happen ... or could it? I don't watch television. My idea of a good time would be packing a picnic and going to the public square to watch executions in person. At least children wouldn't be subjected to it because of an accidental flick of the dial. I wouldn't have to watch the commercials and raise their ratings. Also, I prefer not having children around when adults make fools of themselves. V

UCO offers computer institute By Tina Northcutt Student Writer Computer educators from as far away as Canada will participate in The National Computer Educator's Institute (NCEI) July 28-August 9 on the University of Central Oklahoma campus to update their computer knowledge and skills, said Cindy DeMartini, Mitchell/McGraw-Hill information system manager and NCEI coordinator. The institute was pioneered 18 years ago by Dr. Joe Kinzer, presently Northern Oklahoma College president. Kinzer was an associate business professor at UCO. "I felt we needed a way we could provide teachers with an opportunity to update their computer skills. There were no institutes of this kind, only semester long classes," Kinzer said. Kinzer said his endeavors were to work with Oklahoma teachers, and he was surprised at the international response. "We've had people from China, England and even Nova Scotia attend," Kinzer said. NCEI is designed to provide college faculty with cutting edge technology, DeMartini said. "The institiute provides a place where educators come together to become better teachers. They return

to impact their schools and students," DeMartini said. Kinzer said the students take a technical bath for two weeks. Class is from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday for two weeks. Outside assignments are completed each night and on weekends, if needed. Dr. William Morey, UCO associate business professor and NCEI associate director, said the classes are intensive and students often work until midnight in the computer labs. The institute benefits UCO in more ways than one, Morey said. "It generates graduate credit hours for the university, helps extend the reputation of UCO nationally, develops a network system for computer educators by knowing instructors from all over and provides a service for other universities that is popular," Morey said. Four graduate credit hours will be given to those who successfully complete the course with a ' B' or better. The instructors are nationally-known authors of textbooks published by McGraw-Hill, the cosponsors of NCEI. "The institute does have impact because sometimes they(participants) come back(to Oklahoma) for other reasons," Morey said. "They also spread the news of Oklahoma to their friends." V

The Dirt Poets regroup with David Richardson By Kathy Karr Staff Writer

The Oklahoma City band, The Dirt Poets, hit the Samurai Saki House Wednesday with a skillful mixture of classic rock covers, progressive tunes and the band's own original songs. The Dirt Poets formed as a group in January of 1990, played the clubs and recorded an album. The band dissolved with the departure of David Richardson, who went on to form Dave and the Rage. The Poets regrouped and recently hit the local club circuit with a format that consisted mostly of classic rock tunes. Richardson has rejoined the band, and The Dirt Poets have returned to their original sound, which leans more towards progressive music. The band, with Richardson on keyboards, guitar and vocals, guitarist Darrell Wilson, bassist and vocalist Lance Dierker and drummer Layne Wilson, moves from tune to tune with ease. Included in the band's set are covers of Led Zeppelin, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Beatles and the Ramones and Violent Femmes. The band also played some Richardson-penned tunes that were strongly reminiscent of U2. The band has a great sense of showmanship, which is enhanced by the light show and the best

sound around. They also like to joke with the crowd, and Dierker tends to throw obscure references into the air that only a select few understand. The Dirt Poets always have a solid show, and some tunes are certain crowd pleasers. The guys really shine on "Space Oddity," David Bowie's eerie song about spaceflight. The combination of lights, smoke effects, Darrell's guitar and Dierker's deep smooth voice, which takes on a slight English accent, is enough to give anyone chills. Richardson provides atmosphere for . the song with the keyboards and some tight vocal harmony. The Poets also fire it up with their cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Fire." They rip into the tune, then the rest of the band leaves the stage as Layne lays into an extended drum solo that knocks anyone within earshot to their knees. The rest of the band returns to finish out the tune. They slow it down to a blues groove, ending with a guitar duel between Darrell and Richardson. Another highlight of The Poets set is "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely-Hearts Club Band," with a sequencer providing the brass section. The band then goes into "Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds." The Dirt Poets will be at the T-Bar July 4-5, and at Mamasita's July 6. Definitely try to check these guys out it's well worth it. V

Dying Young pulls at audience's heartstrings By Jeanette McAmis

Staff Writer

The new movie "Dying Young" deals with the evolution of emotions between a young man suffering from leukemia, who just happens to be rich, and the free-spirited young woman hired to take care of him. Campbell Scott is very realistic in his delivery of someone with a terminal illness. It's easy to believe he has leukemia. Julia Roberts gives an intense portrayal of a middle class princess trying to put her world back together following the end of a relationship. To change her life, she answers an advertisement in the paper for a nursing position. From the very begining there is a magical chemistry between Scott and Roberts.

Edmond Photographic I

When Roberts starts the job she is detached and impersonal towards Scott. Thinking of this as strictly a job. However, when they return from Scotts chemotherapy treatment she sees her patient in a different light. Following the treatment, Scott is violently ill. Roberts thinks she can't take care of him properly and toys with the idea of quitting. There is so much emotion in this movie, the audience can't help but be touched. When Scott tells her the treatments are finished they head to the seashore for a much needed vacation. But their fairy tale world is not forever. Yes, there is a morbid shadow to this film, but death is part of living. "Dying Young" sends a message of love and hope to everyone, not just the terminally ill. With all the qualities of a modern day fairy tale, "Dying Young" tugs at the heart of all who see it. V

Edmond's reigning queen will become a familiar face on the University of Central Oklahoma's campus as Miss CSU of Edmond, Mary Shartouny, begins work here on her bachelor's degree in chemical dependency therapy. "It (attending UCO) had always been something I wanted to do," Shartouny said. After attending St. Gregory's College in Shawnee and receiving an associate's degree in social services, Shartouny attended Oklahoma Baptist University and was crowned Miss CSU of Edmond last spring. The rules of the Miss CSU of Edmond state that competitors either live within a 30 mile radius of Edmond or own a residence in

Edmond, which Shartouny does. Shartouny has been competing on the pageant circuit when she was 17 and in her first year of competition participated in only two pageants. But, she said in her second year she competed in 12 pageants, receiving first runner-up in the Miss Wewoka pageant. "A lot of people just think that they just get up there in a pretty dress and win, and that's not it at all," she said. Competing on the pageant circuit takes dedication and time, Shartouny said. "It's something you have to live and breathe," she said. "Pageants are good for some girls and not for others," Shartouny said. "You have to have a really strong dedication to it." Shartouny will be at Edmond's 4th of July parade. V

Restaurants get favorable ratings By Jeanette McAmis Staff Writer University of Central Oklahoma's major restaurants received good ratings in a recent inspection by the Oklahoma County Health Department, but there were some problems with a concession stand. UCO's Oklahoma Room received the highest rating with a score of 99, just missing a perfect rating when the health inspector determined a new thermometer was needed. The Red Bud Room was not rated separately because it shares the same kitchen with the Oklahoma Room, said Russ Morrison, Oklahoma County Health Department environmental specialist. The 89er Cafeteria received a 98 rating when the health inspector found towels not properly stored. "After a rag is used to wipe a table or counter it should be put back into a plastic container of bleach," Morrison said. "The inspector probably found a rag that wasn't being used and wasn't in the bleach water." "All cleaning rags are supposed to go into the bucket," said Bill Preston, UCO food service director. "With training and time, it bcomes a reflex action." Central Cafeteria's 94 rating was the result of the inspector's

13

citation for not properly sanitizing dishes. "It's quite possible on the day of inspection they were just out of bleach for the machine," Morrison said. The only UCO facility to receive a low score was the Broncho Field House concession stand, which rated a 74. "This was the first day the Broncho Field House had been in operation since basketball season," Preston said. Preston said the food wasn't hot because the concession was closing down for the day and nothing else was going to be served. Preston said he was not trying to minimize the violations but the problems were corrected the next day. "To be honest, I just didn't pay as close attention as I should have to the concession stand, because not much food was handled there. I was concentrating on the major food areas, which is where we received the highest ratings," Preston said. Proper training for his employees is high on the list of priorities Preston said. Even though CSU had a few minor problems on the inspection Preston views it in a positive light. "The better we are required to be, the better we will be," Preston said. V

Season costly for OKC 89ers The Oklahoma City 89ers are quickly learning that success can sometimes be costly. The well of prospects once comprising the 89ers team has been run nearly dry by By Bill Kramer the parent Texas Sports Editor Rangers because of injuries and their current good standing in the tough AL West division. The Rangers have immediately benefitted by their mid-season callups of sweet-swinging Dean Palmer and pitchers Wayne Rosenthal, Terry Matthews and Ray Hayward, leaving a gap in the 89ers line-up. Wednesday, the Rangers continued the mid-season nightmare by calling on 89ers shortstop Gary Green, following a freak accident while the parent club was on a road trip in Oakland. Palmer, just acquired from the 89ers, stepped on and broke infielder Mario Diaz' toe during fielding practice. The Rangers wasted no time in calling up the former OSU slugger Green, who also played on the 1984 U.S. Olympic team. To replace Green, Texas promoted defensive specialist Jose Hernandez from double-A Tulsa, who went 2-for-4 in his 89ers debut Thursday. Hernandez was hitting .229 with a homer and 14 RBI in 68 games at Tulsa but has hit .280 since giving up switch hitting May 21. 89ers pitchers Mark Petkovsek and Joe Bitker have returned to Oklahoma City after clering waivers with the Rangers, adding much needed help on the mound. The 89ers close out their eightgame homestand this evening with the annual fireworks display following the game against the Omaha Royals. The Royals boast hot-hitting third base prospect Sean Berry, who is batting .251 with 10 home runs and 32 RBI. Omaha's other top young stars include platoon first basemen Jeff Conine and Bob Hamelin, and a couple of promising pitchers in Mike Magnante and former OU star Dera Clark. Game time is 7:05 p.m. at All Sports Stadium. Tickets can be purchased at the park with prices ranging from 54 for general admission to $6 for box seats.

Former University of Central Oklahoma basketball star Marlon Brown flew Tuesday to Houston where he worked out with the Houston Rockets, one of four NBA teams who have shown a marginal interest in the 6-9 forward. Brown earned first-team AllLone Star Conference honors last season, helping lead the Bronchos to a school-record 25-5 mark while averaging 14.5 points a game and a league-best 9.4 rebounds. The Wichita, Kan., native averaged 16.9 points and 8.3 rebounds a game in 1989, earning secondMarlon Brown team All-LSC honors. Other NBA teams high on Washington Bullets and Pheonix Brown are the Detroit Pistons, Suns. V

Golf star commits to bronze and blue By Bill Kramer Sports Editor Randy Keck, a former Class 2A state golf champ, has committed to the University of Central Oklahoma. A 1988 Oklahoma 2A prep titlist and two-time All-Stater at Lindsay, Keck played the last two years at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College and had a scoring average of 73.9, including a low round of 66. Keck's best spring performance was a runner-up performance in the Jayhawk Conference Championships.

A good crowd should be expected with this the last home game prior to the All-Star Break. Oklahoma City will not return to All Sports Stadium until June 11 against Nashville. V

Grid star garners pre-season honors By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

Defensive back Mart Leming has been selected to The Sporting News first-team pre-season All-America football list, according to the annual college football yearbook, released last week by TSN. Leming, in 1990, was a second-team All-American by the Football Gazette and honorable mention All-LSC selection. He recorded a teambest 109 tackles, three interceptions, four fumble recoveries and broke up six passes. Similar pre-season honors were given former Broncho standouts Keith Traylor and Pinkey Hurley last season, and both lived up to their billing.

Fireworks site moves for the second time Don't unfold your lawn chairs just yet. University of Central Oklahoma officials and members of Edmond's Fourth of July Festival Committee have decided to move the fireworks viewing area again to a different campus location. In past years, spectators watched the display inside Wantland Stadium on the UCO campus. This year, because of construction of a new athletic track in the stadium, committee members were forced to consider other locations for the annual event, and chose to move the spectator area west of the stadium. After festival committee members and UCO representatives watched a test-firing of firework shells, they decided to move

NEW YORK (AP)—Former All-Pro defensive end Lyle Alzado said his inoperable brain cancer resulted from steroids he took while trying to make a comeback in the NFL last year. "I'm half the man I was, and not everything works," Alzado said in an interview on NBC's 'First Person with Maria Shriven' Alzado said he took steroids nearly all 14 years he played in the NFL, while 75 percent of the league players took steroids or some form of performance enhancement. He retired from football in 1985. Last year, at age 41, he tried to become the oldest player in the league, but was cut by the Raiders before the season. Last April, Alzado was diagnosed with a rare form of brain lymphoma, which is being treated with radiation, oral cortisone and chemotherapy. Today, Alzado is 60 pounds lighter and struggles to walk. He has dizzy spells, slurred speech and has lost coordination in his right arm, hand and leg. "My dreams are different now than they once were," Alzado said, "You know, before I wanted to go to the Super Bowl...it's not those things anymore. It's just a workingman's dream; to work, to have a nice car, a nice house. You know, to live decently. To treat people decently."

Survey shows faithful partners NEW YORK (AP)—More than 98 percent of the married people asked said they had been faithful to their partners in the 12 months before being polled, reported a national sex survey conducted by the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago. "Monogamy is both widely endorsed as a moral ideal and practiced by the vast majority of spouses," concluded the report, which was based on confidential surveys filled out by adults during 1988 and 1989. Baltimore marriage counselor and psychologist, Shirley Glass, said the figures on fidelity sounded reasonable. "Fifty percent of men and a third of women say they have had extramarital affairs, but that's over a lifetime of their marriage, so that could easily work out to 1.5 percent a year," she said. Other results revealed that while 33 percent of adults engaged in some behavior considered by the researchers as risky for AIDS infection since age 18, only six percent were considered at high risk from their behavior in the year prior to being surveyed. "The numbers are less permissive and more conservative than we initially feared," survey director Tom W. Smith said. "Therefore, the threat of massive, quick spread of AIDS into the general community is not as great. However, six percent does translate into millions of people and it's still a very big problem."

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—A study conducted by an Oklahoma State University graduate student has prompted the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to install unmanned cameras at about 35 tollgates. Augustine Torres posted himself at a Cimarron Turnpike tollgate near Stillwater and said he discovered a lot of love-hate relationships in progress. "Some of them (drivers) called them things you can't repeat," said OSU sociology professor Larry Perkins, who oversaw the experiment, "They attach some sexual connotation to it, if you can use your imagination about that." Tones found that one out of four drove through without paying. Truckers and adults with small children in the car were more honest than most, but age and sex made no difference in how likely drivers were to pay, he said. However, compliance shot up when Torres put up a dummy camera. "With the camcorder, even though it wasn't operative, giving would go back to the 99 percent range," Torres said. "People would talk to the camcorder, ask it directions and everything else." Torres received an 'A' for the project and $10 in spilled loose change, which he turned over to the turnpike authority, Perkins said.

festival-goers to the south half of the campus. "Moving the spectators away from the stadium area is to everybody's benefit," said Paul Kessler, festival committee president. "We can put more people in the area and we don't have the additional problem of people having to walk up and down (bleacher) steps." Parking areas near East Second Street and Bauman Avenue, and Second Street and North University Drive will serve as observation sites. The area east of Garland Godfrey Drive will be used to launch the fireworks, Kessler said. Parking will be available in the remaining campus lots. Several thousand shells will be put in the air, Kessler said, and tens of thousands of people are expected to attend. "This is going to be our biggest show ever," Kessler said. V
