'Unfounded' allegations anger teachers By Kim Voynar Associate Editor The teachers at the English Language Center disapproved by the Board of Higher Regents are quite irate. It seems they feel the allegation in the committee report that "no member of the faculty has sufficient training in English as a Second Language (ESL), Linguistics, or Rhetoric and Cornposition" is unfounded. "Apparently that statement was based on an off-hand response I made rather than from the transcripts and profiles of the teachers," said Dr. James Stewart, owner of the center. According to the profiles of the
five full-time and two stand-by teachers at ELC, the faculty has a total of 788 college credit hours in English. "The teachers here have a particular interest in the allegation that no member of the faculty has sufficient training in ESL, liuistics, or rhetoric and composition," said Stewart. A breakdown of the total English hours shows the faculty, as a group, has 129 hours in cornposition, 97 hours in rhetoric, 60 hours in linguistics and 424 hours in literature. "The summaries represent considerable training and experience
in those areas in which the Regents' report indicates 'no member of the faculty has sufficient training'," said Stewart. In addition, a breakdown of the faculty's teaching experience reveals 15 years of secondary teaching, 52 years of college teaching and 44 years of teaching ESL. The committee report also stated the teachers at ELC are primarily literature majors. Stewart said there is no literature major. "There's no such thing," said Stewart. "You major in English, not literature."
Maintenance projects attended according to budget, others wait By Martha Giglio As one of the several maintenance projects attended to by the CSU maintenance crew, PCB cooled electrical transformers located in the CSU Library electrical system are being replaced with safer non-PCB cooled transformers, Dr. Larry Williams, vice-president of administration said. This explains the gaping excavated pit in the library's north side parking lot. Workers have had to dig down to retrieve and replace the transformers. Many people have been mystified by the digging, which is visible from the windows next to the library's circulation desk, he added. PCB's (Polychlorinated Biphenyl) are synthetic organic compounds that were widely used by the electrical equipment industry. They conduct heat without conducting electricity, which makes them suitable as insulators in electrical devices such as transformers. The chemicals become harmful pollutants when released into the environment. PCB has not been allowed as a transformer coolant since a 1980 EPA regulation banning its use went into effect. This regulation however, does allow those transformers already in use to be used for the life of the machinery in which they are installed. Williams said that Smith Elec-
tric Co. is doing the work. They were contracted for a bid of $226,043.00, and work was to be finished within 90 days. "The project is very close to being completed," Williams said. "This is just one of several major maintenance projects underway this summer at the campus." "Also being installed in the library is a new air conditioning unit. The old unit had problems of age," Williams said. "Air Engineering is putting in the new chiller for a bid of $226,800.00, and that was a 180 day project, which started on April 15," Williams said. In addition, the library is getting a new roof becuase of the aging roof which is leaking. Southwestern Roofing & Metal Co. has been working at the site for several weeks, and their bright green truck has been visible on the east side the library. The company has a 120 day contract for $88,450.00, which also began April 15. Reroofing will also be undertaken on the Liberal Arts Building. A $110,000.00 bid was signed Monday with Daily Enterprizes for the project, which should be for about 120 days, Williams said. "I expect work to start on it probably about the time school is out this summer," the vice president said.
The report also alleged ELC does not prepare its students for university-level work. "Materials chosen are suitable for survivallevel courses in ESL," reads the report. Stewart sent transcripts of all ESL students who hold ELC certificates and have completed their first year at CSU to Dr. Melvin Todd, vice chancellor of academic affairs. The students entered CSU based on their scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), not the Regents' certificates. In ESL courses, all the students earned A's. Of 217 semester hours, the seven students earned a total of 760 grade points, for an average GPA of 3.5. Four of the students carried 18 to 20 credit hours. "I think this to be remarkable
for a school with an inadequte curriculum and an insufficiently trained staff," Stewart said in a letter to Todd. According to Stewart, Todd said he had informed the visitation team they were to react to the ELC response by July 11 or he would make a recommendation to Chancellor Joe Leone on his own. "I do not take this to mean he has made his decision," said Stewart. Todd said he had no comment except that "Dr. Stewart's written response is now under review." Stewart said he feels the staff at ELC has a "good balance" of training. "We feel that we have an excellent faculty to teach ESL, an excellent curriculum, and, despite the recent publicity, a group of students with high morale and serious purpose," said Stewart.
Another toxic material removal project, that of removing asbestos, continues on the art and music buildings. Work is being done in sections. Equipment from the music building is being temporarily moved to locked brown box-car like storage containers outside. Slated next for asbestos removal is the University Center ballroom. Another project is having the parking lots resealed, which theyare being done on a periodic basis. "That's an ongoing thing," Williams explained. "Every summer we reseal lots, just as regular maintenance. "This summer, the lot west of the Liberal Arts Building on the south side was resealed. The sealant itself is black, so we have to repaint stripes. "If you reseal with this compound, the asphalt lots will last longer. You can virtually double their lives," he said. There are other general repair and replacement projects being carried out by CSU maintenance people but recent budget cuts have had an affect on maintenance projects. "We've had a number of different things we've wanted to do, which have had to be postponed," Williams said. "We are just having to make do as best as we can with what we have."

Working on one of the many maintenance projects, the CSU maintenance crew and contractors replace the underground wiring system on the east side of the Administration Building. This and many other projects are to be completed by the fall semester.

Opinion Page Times are changing in state By Mark Codner Associate Editor "The times they are a'changin". Liquor by the drink was legalized. Betting on horses is now legal and a petition bearing the names of 150,000 Oklahomans asking for a statewide vote on a state-run lottery has been filed with the Secretary of State. Now liquor advertising has been legalized in Oklahoma after a 23 year ban was ruled unconstitutional by the U.S. District Court. Restaurants and liquor stores are displaying large signs and banners as compared to the diamond shaped signs saying "retail liquor store." Waiters can now suggest specific types of liquors and even say "wine list" instead of "beverage menu." Change has been occuring in Oklahoma and it is definitely for the better. The sentiment towards these issues was completely opposite only 10 years ago. Attitudes towards betting and liquor seems to have made a complete turnaround. Oklahomans have finally come out of the closet on a couple of the states longest debated questions. It's nice to see change in a state long overdue. We (as Okies) are finally finishing debates and making changes the older states went through long ago.

Editorial
Abortion's helpless victims By Kim Voynar Associate Editor World-wide, more than 20 million pregnancies end in abortion each year. In the United States, one out of every four pregnancies is aborted. These appalling statistics strongly indicate a society of no morals. Pro-choice advocates scream for the right of a woman to do what she chooses with her own body. They say it should be up to the woman to decide if she wants to be burdened with an unwanted pregnancy. Any woman "mature" enough to engage in a sexual relationship should be mature enough to accept the possible consequences of her actions. A common cop-out of many prochoice supporters is that the unborn child "isn't really a living human until it is born." They choose to blatantly ignore the fact that it has been biologically proven the fetus is indeed a living being from the moment of conception.
Just eight weeks after conception, the fetus has a heartbeat and responds to pain. Three months after conception the unborn child has every organ, body part and chromosome it will have as a full-grown adult. The only change after this point in development is growth. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are "inalienable rights' ' guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence. Yet apparently, in di' ; hypocritical society, these rights do not extend to the unborn child. If a person commits murder and gets caught, he will be punished for the act, if only for a brief time — another questionable facet of our justice system. However, a woman can go to her local women's clinic and casually murder her unborn child without so much as a slap on the hand or a questioning look. The only punishment she will ever
receive is the overwhelming sense of guilt she will be forced to live with for the rest of her life, assuming she has a conscience at all. With so many families willing and able to adopt unwanted children, the phenomenal number of selfish women v..ho end their pregnancies with abortion is tragic. There is something grotesquely sick about a society that allows its children's lives to be ended in this mass slaughter. It is high time the members of this society, with its "mind your own business" philosophy, look into their conscience instead of looking the other way. Someone must stand up for the rights of the helpless unborn. The truth can be ignored no longer. If this society is to be one of equal rights, its members must speak up for the helpless victims, who cannot speak for themselves.

OKC bids for Boeing plant Oklahoma City has made its final pitch in Wichita, Kan. to have the proposed Boeing aircraft maintenance center build a site in the city. OKC is one of three cities that is vying for the plant. Over 6,000 people completed a Boeing survey, which will give the company an idea of how many are qualified and will work at the center. In the presentation to Boeing, this information was given along with offers of free land, tax-exempt construction bonds, new access roads and a multi-million dollar training program. Lake Charles, La. and Jacksonville, Fla. are the other cities vying for the plant.
Bartenders can be liable A ruling has been issued by the Oklahoma Supreme Court stating that tavern operators who serve drinks to a durnken customer can be liable for damages suffered by a third person injured by acts of the drunk customer. This ruling is a result of an accident in 1983, in which a OKC restaurant served liquor to minors, including the driver of the car in which a passenger received head injuries in an accident. The father sued the restaurant, which is no longer in business. At the time of the accident, the case was dismissed in district court because Oklahoma didn't have an act making club owners liable for serving drinks to an intoxicated person. The court ordered the case sent back to Oklahoma county for further consideration.
Treasurer owns bookstore land A closed adult bookstore has been linked to State Treasurer Leo Winters, who is the equitable owner of the property the store sits on at N.W 10 and McArthur in Oklahoma City. An employee of the treasurer's office said Winters got rid of the tenant as soon as he found out the store was on his property. Winter's attorney showed surprise when he found there was an adult bookstore operating on his client's property. The store was closed three months ago because it wasn't making money and city authorities were threatening to cite the store for alleged law violations.
Civil defense criticized A Federal Emergency Management Agency told Congress, America's civil defense capabilities to deal with nuclear attack are low and declining. The agency gave no recommendations for improvement but did say it would cost billions of dollars to bring the U.S. civil defense system up to par with the European nations.
Colleges need to inform drug ban Since the recent drug deaths of two college athletes, William Bennett, education secretary feels every college president should begin and strictly enforce a ban on drugs on campus. Bennett said colleges and universities have a responsiblity to parents to take measures to protect the students from illegal drugs, just as they protect them from crime, fraud or exploitation.
Edmond seeks city attorney Edmond city officials are still seeking an attorney after several people interviewed for the position could not agree on the city's terms. The new attorney will replace Fred Orcutt, who resigned his post in May to enter private practice. He has agreed to stay on until hs successor is named. Carl Reherman, mayor hopes the city will have an attorney by the first of September.
Readers' forum Letters Workers, farmers rule leads to freedom To the editor: With July 4 here, we are celebrating freedom. But, as Martin Luther King Jr. observed, as long as anyone is in chains, no one can truly be free. Today in South Africa, 22 million black workers and farmers are struggling for their freedom. They are struggling for our freedom as well. Their struggle is our struggle, a common struggle against a common enemy: the giant corporations which reap superprofits from racism at home and apartheid abroad. It is in our interests to immediately break all economic and political ties with South Africa, to isolate and hasten the downfall of the outlaw apartheid regime which grows more bloodthirsty by the day.
However, the U.S. government follows the dictates of big business. Reagan continues to prop up this regime, while Congress continues to debate how it can follow through in its effort to overthrow the Sandinista workers' and farmers' government in Nicaragua, to subject this poor country to the domination of the multinational corporations once more. This can only be done by direct use of U.S. troops, meaning certain death for thousands of U.S. workers and farmers presently in the military services. This big business government continues to pour a billion dollars a day into ever more dangerous implements of death and destruction, diverting precious resources away from the service of human
needs. This madness must cease! Working people have an interest in freedom. We have an interest in meeting human needs. We have an interest in peace, in building bonds of solidarity with all oppressed peoples of the world. Only by organizing ourselves politically, in our massive numbers, as working people who are independent of the political parties of big business (the Republican and Democratic parties). Only then are our interests ever sure to be served. When the workers and farmers rule this country, only then will the last chains be broken. When the workers and farmers rule this world, only then will we truly be free. Rick Garcia
Ryan completes 20 years By Deborah Bryner Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services, completed 20 years at Central State University July 1. As a former education major and member of the student association, it seems natural that Dr. Ryan would become vice president of student services. However, Ryan's career did not begin at CSU. It was at Southeast High School, where he taught for five years while pursuing a graduate degree. During his first year, he taught woodwork and was led to begin the distributive education program. He pursued this program for the remaining four years he was there. While Ryan was still a graduate student, he visited with Dr. Charles Richmond, who was dean of students at the time. He said that if CSU needed someone to work with student organizatons, he would do it. In 1966, CSU
decided it needed an activities director. Dr. Ryan applied, was accepted and began his career at CSU on July 1 of that year. In 1975, Ryan was appointed dean of men and director of student functions. In 1976, the titles were changed from dean of men and dean of women to associate dean of students and director of student activities. In 1982, Ryan's position was changed to dean of students. In 1984, he served a year as acting vice president and then his title was officially changed to vice president of student services. According to Dr. Ryan, his duties may deal with anything from extreme emergencies, to discipline, to awards. One of his goals is to identify the status of the students and to eliminate apathy. He beleives that the university is a quiet business serving its students and that natural attrition is going to include new programs.
"CSU to me is the only place to be," Ryan said.

Barbara Stone Bette Midler) makes the best of her time in captivity by excercising voraciously in 'Ruthless People.'
Film worth money for 'ruthless people' By Kim Voynar Sam Stone, a wealthy businessman, arrives home from lunch with his mistress and is unable to find his wife, Barbara. The phone rings, and the caller informs Sam his wife has been kidnapped. Not only is he unconcerned for his wife's safety, he is delighted. He had come home early to kill her. When the audience meets Barara Stone, they understand why Sam wanted to kill her. She is an egotistical, spoiled heiress who drives her captors so crazy with her obnoxious — and often violent — behavior, they're tempted to pay her husband to take her back. Her "ruthless" captors are Ken and Sandy Kessler, a goodnatured stereo salesman and his wife, who clean and refurbish the guest room before kidnapping
Barbara to make sure she will be comfortable. Sam's not-so-devoted mistress, Carol Farnsworth, who knows about Sam's plan to kill his wife, decides to blackmail her doting benefactor to make sure she isn't left out of the action. Review "Ruthless People" is a contemporary comedy about what happens to five people who get pushed to the limit. Danny DeVito shines in his role as the loathsome but lovable Sam Stone. DeVito's expertise at taking perfectly rotten characters and making them loveable is tested to it's full extent in this film. Once again, he makes it work, and by the end of the movie the audience both despises and feels sorry for Sam Stone.
Bette Midler's performance as the eccentric, outrageous Barbara Stone is hilarious. Her skill as an actress gets a real workout as, through the course of the film, her character's personality changes from obnoxious to conniving to charming. The characters of Ken and Sandy Kessler are portrayed by Judge Reinhold (Beverly Hills Cop) and Helen Slater (Supergirl). Their innocent faces make them perfect for the roles of the not-so-ruthless kidnappers. "Ruthless People" is a wellmade movie. The dialouge flows smoothly, and the plot is full of unexpected twists and turns. This is not an ordinary film. The audience never knows what to expect next. The skill of the directors, the talent of the cast and the wonderfully funny script blend together to make "Ruthless People" the best movie of the summer to see.
Oak Ridge Boys pleasing By Susan Green Maybe it was because the concert was outside, instead of inside like most Oklahomans are used to hearing it, or because it was a Monday night and it looked like rain. Perhaps there was very limited advertising to promote the concert, since the performance was not in the band's original schedule. Whatever the reason, Richard Sterban, bass singer and Duane Allen, lead singer of the Oak Ridge Boys looked disappointed as they watched the Eighty-niner's game from the press box at AllSports stadium and saw only half the stadium was filled. The dedicated fans who were there gave the Oak Ridge Boys a warm Oklahoma welcome as they ran on the field to the stage. For 90 minutes, the band entertained the audience with their ballads, be-bop tunes and two-steppin' dance music. As always, the Oaks were dressed in their own way. Joe Bonsall, tenor, dressed in white pants, jacket, red T-shirt, tennis shoes and white headband. Duane
Allen, lead, dressed in jeans, boots and long-sleeve blue shirt. Tenor William Lee Golden, wore an untucked blue shirt, jeans and boots with his long hair, while the preppie of the group, Richard Sterban, bass, wore a blue jacket, pants, shirt and dress shoes. Review
The Oaks opened their "Seasons Tour 86" with "American Made," a real crowd pleaser that had the audience on their feet clapping to the beat. One song led to another as they combined old favorites with tunes from their new album, "Seasons". A medley composed of "You're Always in My Heart," "Everyday I Want to Shake Somebody's Hand," "Dream On," "Fancy Free" and "I Want to Sing You a Little Love Song" brought back memories of all-time favorites. After the medley, Bonsall introduced the Oaks and explained how they ended up in OKC. Bonsall said the night before they per-
formed in a Texas stadium and were scheduled to sing in Duluth, Minn. the day after. Someone in OKC heard about it and asked them to stop "on their way" and perform after an Eighty-niner's game. He stressed OKC was not on the way, but they were not scheduled to perform here this year and this was their chance to. The Oak Ridge Boys continued the show with their famous "Elvira," "Bobby Sue" and "Thank God for Kids," which had everyone on their feet once again. The theme song, "Seasons of Your Life," from their new album, will definitely be a hit. The theme of the song is the seasons only come once a year, and not to let them pass by unnoticed because they only come one at a time. Once again the Oaks have a beautiful ballad that will surely win the hearts of many. Watching them perform and seeing how they individually dress to fit their personality, it is not hard to understand how the Oak Ridge Boys can please both young and old with the country style that is all their own.

Driving institute can accomplish the goal
Vista photo by Chris White
By Susan Green Receiving a drivers license, is a goal most 16-year-olds achieve, as a step towards independence. No more do they need to have mom take them where they want to go, for they have the license that allows them to drive on city streets. At the South Central Driving Institute, located behind CSU, 16-year-olds are not the only students learning to drive. The institute, directed by Dr. Lonnie Gilliland, professor of safety education, has been in operation since the late 1960s dealing with the problems drivers face daily and teaching several programs to a variety of people. In addition to driver's education, the institute offers training to the physically and mentally handicapped, driver improvement and commercial operators.
Driver education is a fourphase program in which students learn to drive in the classroom, use the simulator, drive on the range with controlled movement and drive on the streets. Driver improvement is a course taught strictly in the classroom. The course is for those drivers who have had their license taken away and is sent by a judge to driving school in order to remove two points off his driving record. This allows him to retain his license. A program for commercial operators includes three courses, which allow 24 hours of training for law enforcement, 12 hours of training for bus drivers and eight hours of training for the department of public safety. The fourth program the institute offers for the physical and mentally handicapped, includes
students state-wide, and has had a total of 600 handicapped students go through the program. 88 percent of these were successful in attaining a driver's license. The program is a 60 hour course and the instruction is taught according to the individual's need. The institute has taught driving to the brain damaged, those with muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, parpalegics, quadraplegics and the deaf. Although driving is a goal for teenagers who want the independence, it is also a goal that can be achieved by many who need to re-train, drive specialized vehicles and for those who possibly felt they would never have the ability to drive. The South Central Driving Institute can help accomplish the goal.
Participating In one of the four programs taught by the South Central Driving Institute, student Larry Yother receives assistance from Rick Nordyke, instructor, to enter the van for a driving lesson. A specialized steering wheel helps Yother grip the wheel, (from left to right)Nordyke assists Yother to insert chair into driver's position, Yother double-checks his equipment before starting the engine and Nordyke assists Yother as he enters the van on the passenger side. Yother is a quadraplegic from Colgate, Okla.

Wine bar palatable Flip's earns review By Mark Codner Associate Editor Around 63rd and Western, there are quite a few nice restaurants. One of the hot spots is Flip's Wine Bar and Trattoria. Located at 5801 N. Western, Flip's is a restaurant where friends can meet friends over a glass of wine and the social elite can see and be seen. Upon entrance to the establishment, prints of vinyards and other colorful artwork draws the body further in through the doorway. Inside, the restaurant has a bar area and seperate dining space. A huge wine rack rests above the bar with enough selection to please practically any connoisseur's palate. There are choice wines for any of the entrees selected. Dinner at Flip's is termed "European Country Style". While choosing the unusual style of entree, an excellent selec-
tion of fresh salads and appetizers can be selected. Included are the Fried Calamari (battered squid, deep fried) and Toasted Ravioli (Handmade ravioli stuffed with ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, Italian sausage, scallions, black olives and mushrooms, breaded, fried and served with an italian sauce.). All entrees start with homemade soup and fresh garden salad. There are several types of noodles served several different ways. They are all good but some of my favorites are the whole wheat linguine with the Marinara Sauce and the silky Fettucini Carbonara. Other favorites include the Veal Parmesan which is baked and marinated in wine then served with garlic linguine and vegetable du jour and the Filet Chantrelle (Black angus tenderloin charbroiled and topped with a strained dry wine sauce). Also included is the Shrimp
Milanese which is baked with parmesan and spinach in Italian fontina sauce. Chef specials are served nightly and are highly recomended. Homemade desserts, a Cappuccino or vintage Port round out any of the entrees in classic style. Service during the evening is excellent. All wait etiquette is carried out in refined manner. Food prep time is a little slow, but with the delicate nature of the marinades and sauces this is understandable. The plate appearance is good but the portions aren't very big. Becoming full is no problem though, because the salad and soup starts the stomach filling and the rich marinades and sauces finish the job. Flip's has become the in-place to go in an area where many fine establishments can be found. With a wine selection so varied and excellent food, Flip's is a choice restaurant.
Doctor once taught here, now handles sick students By J Money One of the doctors handling sick calls at the Student Health Center attended and later taught classes here. Dr. Charles W. Coyner attended CSU in 1959 and 1960 while working toward a Doctorate degree in political science. After achieving the goal he returned to teach political science from 1965 until 1971. At that time, he decided to change his career to medicine. "The reasons why I decided to change my career to medicine were numerous. My father was ill at that time. He had been a family physician for many years. Because of my respect for medicine and a desire to do
something new at the age of 28, that's what I decided to do." Coyner attended medical school at the Health Science Center in Oklahoma City. His schooling consisted of four years of classroom instruction, one year internship, and two years of residency. His residency period was interrupted by severe medical problems. "During my second year of internship, I began having seizures. In 1979 I underwent a biopsy and was diagnosed as having a malignant tumor in my brain. "I had a choice of having the affected part of my brain removed, or undergoing chemotherapy treatment. "Since the first would have left
me half paralyzed, I decided on chemotherapy and it worked. Later during an annual cat-scan, my brain was diagnosed tumorfree. "In each cat-scan since, the diagnosis has remained the same. I feel that I have been very lucky, and give all the credit to the Lord." Since then Coyner has finished his residency program, and has worked for the State and GM on a fee basis. He said the decision to return to CSU to practice medicine was because both his father and aunt had careers here. In addition, he feels comfortable with the staff and students.
Nonresidents may get relief from tuition By Gary S. Rea Students who want to continue their education at an out-of-state college, but dread the usual higher tuition rates for nonresident students, may be getting some economic relief in the near future. Under a new plan devised by the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), students will soon be able to attend state universities
in 13 states without paying nonresident tuition. The program, a part of the SREB's Academic Common Market, is a system which involves member state universities working in cooperation with each another. Under the program, students meeting regular admission standards may attend classes in
Location influences choice By Jane Meese Ninety-one percent of the students attending state colleges and universities are Oklahoma residents, according to a study conducted by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. The study of student's selection of institutions from 1981 to 1985 showed that five percent of the students enrolled at state institutions are residents of other states and four percent come from foreign countries. Even though students at CSU come from 70 of the state's 77 counties, the number of freshmen
drawn from each county shows a clear pattern of regionalism. Most freshmen attending CSU come from immediately surrounding counties due to the easy commuting distance. According to State Regents' staff, the proximity of a campus is a strong factor in a freshman's choice of school. Older students returning to college have also contributed to the regional attendance patterns. These students have work and family obligations that prohibit them from attending a distant campus for full-time study.
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virgina, and West Virginia without paying the higher nonresident tuition. Courses will be offered on a space-available basis. Oklahoma's participation in the Common Market program has been approved by the Oklahoma State Board of Regents. Specific programs to be offered by Oklahoma colleges and universities will be determined by the Regents at a later date. The program is especially intended for students at the graduate and professional levels. Texas and Florida will be participating only at the graduate level. The program is being established to provide students in memeber states access to expensive academic programs without each state having to bear the cost of starting every program. Programs will be added or removed from the market annually as the needs of participating states change.

Factors increase cancer chances By Mark Codner Associate Editor Sunbathing addicts beware, the skin burned today has an excellent chance of becoming cancerous tommorow. With the growing number of tanning salons, the in-look of a beautiful dark tan, sunglasses and birthday number 40 for the bikini bathing suit this year, many people can expect basal-cell carcinoma of the nose. Basal-cell carcinoma is a common form of skin cancer found in the nose area. It develops in the deeper part of the epidermis in the malpighian layer where protoplasm has not yet changed into harder material. The cancer has risen drastically since 1930. One of the reasons why, is the increase in tanning salons. Salons make sun abuse available on weekends, wintertime and even when the sun isn't out. Ultraviolet rays are used in the salons processes. They are also the
active ingredient in sunlight which can derange the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic-acid and start the cancer development. Another reason for the drastic rise is the social feelings towards deep-dark skin. People like the way the sun makes them look. Instead of looking like Miss Havisham of Great Expectations fame, they want to look like the cover girl or guy on a magazine or even George Hamilton. While filming on location, Hamilton has a clause in his contracts stating he must be flown to a sunny climate once a month. Problems also arise when sunglasses are worn. The sun reflects off the glass directly on the nose. They are more popular than ever before. Even more popular than sunglasses is the bikini bathing suit. This summer is the 40th anniversary of it's introduction by French designer Louis Reard. Men everywhere risk their noses
Grads help golf program 1986 Cushing High School graduate Grant Downey and three other high school grads have signed letters of intent to play golf. "We're very excited about getting Grant to attend CSU," said athletic director John "Skip" Wagnon. "He's just the quality of athlete and student we want here and just the person we can rebuild our program around." Also signing with the Bronchos were Jeff Atkins of Sapulpa and Jamie Martin and Tom Perry; both of Nebraska.
The Bronchos won district golf championships in 1979 and 1981, but have finished no better than second since '81 and was a disappointing seventh at the 1986 District 9 Championships. But with the signing of Downey, Atkins and the two Nebraskans, and the return of senior David Seaton, Wagnon feels the Bronchos are quickly moving back into contention for the district title and the automatic berth in the national tournament it brings.
for glimpses of beautiful curves in new bikini fashions. As well, women trek to their favorite sunspot to catch hardbodied men in the latest swimwear designs. Several designers introduced turtleneck bathing suits this spr-
ing. Could this be an indication of some form of sun consciousness? Between the various factors mentioned, basal-cell carcinoma is rising higher as the most common form of cancer. It can be treated fairly easily when caught at an early stage.
Even Ronald and Nancy Reagan as well as George Bush have had the basal-cell carcinomas removed. With the inrease in basal-cell carcinoma, priorities should be questioned concerning deep sunbrowned skin.
Kunc, Bachi display works Art exhibit admission free By C.A. Murdock A look at past accomplishments opens an exhibit for two former art faculty members, at the CSU Museum of Art. A retrospect of art will be displayed by retired Associate Professor Kathryn Kunc and Professor Michael Bachi. Featured will be silver and gold jewelry by Kunc, while Bachi will exhibit work in the painting and printmaking mediums. The exhibit is designed to show a series of work which has been completed over the years by both Kunc and Bachi. "Some of that work was done back in the 50s, before I came to Central State," said Bachi. "But most of it was really done since I've been at Central, including the etchings and the lithographs." Both professors formally retired in May of this year, but will remain on the faculty in adjunct positions. Kunc will teach one class in jewelrymaking this fall while Bachi will have one class in printmaking.
"I saw the department grow from two people to 10 people full time," said Kunc. She has been at CSU since August 1952 and has served as chair of the art department the last 12 years. "This is work," said Kunc, "I'm getting about 50 to 60 pieces ready for this show." Kunc, a member of the Edmond Art Association, has exhibited in 17 faculty art shows and has served as judge at numerous other shows around the state. She was voted CSU teacher of the year in 1967 and Outstanding Faculty Woman in 1973-74 and 1979-80. Bachi joined the faculty of the Art Department in 1962. His major area of interest is painting, but he has also worked in the various printmaking areas. "My real love is oil painting. If you give a demonstration, you can do it in two hours," said Bachi. "If I'm doing it for myself it will take quite a few weeks, because I like to paint large." Bachi said he has been doing a lot of watercolors these days
because they're a little bit quicker than oil paintings. "I'm one of those people that can stay with an oil painting at least eight hours a day," said Bachi. "I don't do it 15 minutes now and 15 minutes later. That's why I don't paint in class." Although he is looking forward to his retirement, Bachi still likes the idea of being able to teach one course during the semester. He says it will keep him ahead of the students, and it keeps him young. He has participated in the faculty art shows for the last 24 years and has eight works on exhibit in the CSU Administration building. "For us, juried shows are a way of publishing our work," said Bachi. The Kunc and Bachi exhibit will be on display to the public from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday for the formal opening and continue through July 28, in the CSU Museum of Art, in the Art building. The museum hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and admission is free.

By Candy Mullen After teaching here 34 years, art teacher Kathryn Kunc decided to retire. She has been a part of CSU for 54 years. "I just thought it was time," said Kunc, who has contributed much of her life to the cultural, educational and social life of both the community and the university. Kunc, who has served as chairman of the art department for the past 15 years, said she is proud of her teachers and the accomplishments of her department. "We all pulled together," she said. "We didn't always agree, but we did pull together." Kunc has been around Edmond all her life. She went to kindergarten in Old North and eventually graduated from the Central State laboratory school in 1939. The school had grades kindergarten through high school. After graduating from Central State College in 1942 with degrees in art and home economics, she taught in the public schools six years before returning to CSU as a teacher. She has been here ever since. Max Chambers hired her as a teacher in 1952. "I have worked under three presidents, Chambers, Garland Godfrey and Bill Lillard," said Kunc, "and I

learned something from all of them." Kunc has not only taught classes, for 26 years she was the faculty sponsor of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority. She has served as faculty sponsor for Mortar Board honor society. She also has served on many university boards and councils including the Religious Council, the Council of Academic Affairs, the Faculty Social Committee, Parents Day Committee and the Council of Teacher Education. Kunc was named Outstanding Faculty Woman in 1973 and 1979 and CSU Teacher of the Year in 1967. In 1982, she was elected president of the Central State University Alumni Association. "I have recieved a lot of honors, most of them undeserved, but this was my greatest honor as far as the school was concerned," said Kunc. Those who worked with her praise her term of office. "She did a yeoman's job," said John "Skip" Wagnon, executive director of the Alumni Association. Kunc said leaving CSU was a difficult decision. Even now, she sad, she misses her students. She admits to shedding a few tears. "I really miss the students," she said. "It's so hard to leave after 34 years."
