Average age enrollment increased in summer school A slight shift toward business, mathematics and science courses was recorded over the last four summers at CSU, according to statistics released by the president's office Friday. The 1982 summer enrollment report showed a 25 percent or better increase in business education, mathematics, accounting, management, sociology, vocational education, chemistry, modern languages, philosophy and nursing. The age group has shifted slightly with the average summer student age at 28. Half of the summer enrollment is over 25, with 30 percent between 21 and 24, and 17 percent under 21. International students make up 8.32 percent, 7.75 percent are classified as Afro-American, and less than four percent are of Hispanic, Asiatic or American Indian origin. American Indian and Asian enrollment is up slightly, while Hispanic enrollment dropped from 45 students last summer to 36, a 20 percent reduction. International and Anglo-Saxon enrollments are up by 5.26 percent and 6.6 percent respectively, while Afro-American enrollment is down by less than half of a percent, or two students.

It seems to me we've almost replaced half of the garbage disposals in the last couple of years. The cost just keeps going up. There are no state appropriations for these improvements," Field said. "You pay for them with your rent." Fields mentioned that a request to buy smoke alarms for each of the apartments was in progress. "It's a long, drawn-out process but hopefully, before fall is over, they'll be installed." Also, eight new washers had been installed last spring in the laundries of Broncho I and II.

In order to get a washer that was foolproof, we had to go to washers that cost $1200 and $1300 apiece.

0 inion Page Is survival name of game? To the editor: In these trying times of chaos and confusion, it is a very troubled world in which mankind lives. The good old days are gone and now survival is the name of the game. Over the past decade the world has been in a constant state of turmoil, in flation has skyrocketed and unrest has swept the nation. Unemployment is comparable to that of the great depression and crime is increasing, with violence posing a major threat to humanity. The energy crisis scare which affected everyone has passed and is almost forgotten. Even though the speed limit was lowered to conserve
fuel and ultimately save lives, the death toll, due to traffic fatalities, continues to climb surpassing last year's gruesome total. Political scandals occur with disturbing regularity shaking people's faith in their leaders and in the system of democracy. Graft and corruption has infiltrated every level of bureaucracy creating hate, fear and distrust among officials and the public. Communist oppression continues to overwhelm nations which the U.S. has supposedly pledged to support, yet a deaf ear is turned to their pleas for assistance. War is prevalent throughout the world with famine and poverty wide spread. Country after

Is the U.S. and the rest of the free world sticking their heads in the sand ignoring this monumental problem hoping these deplorable conditions will go away? History repeats itself and right now America is at the same level of prosperity and greatness as was Rome when it capitulated to the hordes of heathenistic barbarians who overran and sacked it with the enternal aid of its captured foreign slaves.

Can the economy withstand this massive onslaught which will sooner or later most certainly occur? Although there is serenity and beauty everywhere, all that glitters is not gold. Child abuse rears its hideous head inflicting pain and misery upon innocent children. Is alcohol to blame or do parents derive some perverted sense of satisfaction from torturing their own flesh and blood? Divorce is as common as marriage, the family unit is breaking up and both male and female homosexuality is gaining popularity, thus creating new strains of VD as a result of this disgusting and depraved behavior. The future looks bleak indeed with little hope for a balanced budget, nuclear devastation looms over the horizon, inflation gallops away unchecked and even the weather has been unusual and uncertain. Looking back on all of these events and misfortunes makes a person wonder about the prospects of a fruitful existance in the future, all in all, it's a sad sad world in which to live. J.D. McDaniels

To the editor: There is a problem at Central State and something needs to be done about it There is a wide variety of ages ranging from 17 to middle aged in the classes. Some of the older students who are parents feel they need to bring their children to class. Why should students, who choose the option of waiting until after they get their education to marry and have children, have to put up with young children in their college classes? These young children distract from the
care of the children, nor is it his job to hire a babysitter. These parents need to realize that if they are old enough to have children, they are old enough to take the responsibility of seeing that their children are taken care of outside of the class room so the other students can get the full benefit of the education they are paying for.

Young adults acquire experience from CETA program this summer By Gigi Ragland "In order to get something, you need to do something. That means attending classes and the work training programs required to get the full benefits for the CETA Program," declared Gilbert Montalvo. Montalvo is the assistant director for the Human Resources Department for the city of Oklahoma City. He is in charge of all CETA activities in this region, which includes Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. CETA, which stands for Comprehensive Employment Training Act was derived in order to do basically two things, provide a job and give training experience.
CSU has approximately 35 to 40 individuals working through the CETA program this summer. They are involved in work on several different areas on campus. The CETA Program locates an individual in a job and subsidizes their wages depending on the occupation. The idea is to find a job with training in mind, so as to provide that person with a useful skill for the job market and become a more productive person. Those on welfare, economically disadvantaged individuals, the handicapped, and displaced homemakers, divorcee's and widows are all eligible for the benefits of CETA. Each individual that wants to be a part of the program must go through a screening process. This includes filling out an application and receiving an interview. From that the department screens out those applicable for the program and sends them on to the Assessment Center, The Assessment Center tests out the individuals for a week while counselors observe their activities and conclude which skills a person does best in. Then they recommend the individual to improve on that skill through the training Program. The Center provides hand on experience, actual on the job experience, for 50 different skills. They range from secretarial work, welding to plumbing. Once an individual has been tested out they then go into training at a school, varying from, private schools, Vo-Tech schools and specialized schools, then are placed in a job that gives them hands on experience. The idea behind this is for the person to acquire a marketable skill and become a productive person, enriching the economy. Another Program CETA is involved in is the "Summer Youth Employment Program," designed for highschool and college youth. This program con-
sists of two components which include work experience and classroom training. It provides jobs for those eligible between the ages of 14-21 and exposes them to a variety of occupations through the career awareness technique. "Career awareness is a hands on activity which exposes youth to jobs they may be interested in," added Montalvo. Presetnly, CSU has approximately 35-40 such individuals involved on its campus in different areas. At night the group usually get together and go to their classes. This Program is different from the regular CETA program in that it only lasts for the summer. terminating in August. 786 youth are involved in the summer program at the present time. Mr. Montalvo approximates that it costs about $3,500 per person involved in the program. So it is mandatory to make sure a person is suited, eligible, and that training is provided. Eligibility for the summer program is comparable to the full CETA Program. For many youth CETA comes „,..ross to them by word of mouth, as it did with James Callahan. The seventeen year old found out about Lite summer program through his relatives, who thought he might be interested in it.
The program locates an individual in a job and subsidizes their wages depending on the occupation. The CETA center provides hands-on experience; actual on the job experience. After being accepted, CETA tries to place an individual at a job and training experience nearest to their home for convenience. James' next step was figuring out what area he wanted to work in. He picked communications and is presently studying that at CSU, along with his job at the KCSC FM station on the campus. From 9:30 to 12:00 a.m. he times tapes for the station. This is a process done with machines and basic calculation. "I really like working with the equipment, and hopefully someday I can get a job with the station on a full time basis," said James. The CETA Program provides an incentive and hope for those unemployed, unskilled individuals wanting to work. The necessary requirement for them is that they have the will and motivation to go through the program. Not only does CETA benefit the individual, but it also is an economic stimulus. Montalvo concluded. "It makes a person productive for the rest of his life by giving him a marketable skill and in turn they pay taxes over and over again, which will benefit the economy."

of the laundries during the installation process. Fields knows of no plans to add additional parking for the tenants. Those living in the 24 units on-campus may park in the D6 area north and west of their apartments or in the D2 parking surrounding East Hall. Broncho tenants ae classified as cornmuters, allowing them to park either on three sides of their buildings or to drive to the Cl, C2 or C3 lots designated by their parking stickers. CI parking is on the south side of campus, across Main Street from Wantland and Mitchell Halls. C2 is between the library and the security building in the northwest section of campus, or on either side of Ayers Street between University Drive and Washington, or west of the fieldhouse. C3 parking includes a variety of areas on the east, including the liberal arts parking lots, those east of the math building, and a large section east of the University Center.
In reply to the problem with roaches in the apartments, Fields mentioned a change in exterminators. "We've going through several and Lystades has done as good a job as any. However, Orkin was the low bidder." The apartments are generally sprayed downstairs one month and upstairs the next. "They tell me they can control it that way as well as any other. However, they will come back within 24 hours after their first application if any bugs are sighted. "It's not just the exterminators. It's controlled by cleanliness as well as chemicals." Pets as well as pests create a problem, according to the director. "I have no problems with goldfish as long as they don't stop up the sink, which has happened. But you can get into all kinds of problems with cats and dogs." He mentioned one particular case when the owner of a large dog thought his $50 a month pet fee entitled him to curb his animal
anywhere -- including near the apartment playground. "I wrote him a letter saying he could either take his dog outside the general courtyard or keep it elsewhere. I'd hate to show you the letter he wrote me back!" Occasinally tenants are allowed to change apartments, usually from a one-bedroom to a twobedroom. "Usually it's because of an addition to the family. We allow people to change apartments, but the change is made when we can make it. Someone has to be at the top of the list wanting a one-bedroom apartment and a two-bedroom has to be available." The biggest problem Fields has is with tenants who move out without sending a letter of notice which includes the day of vacation. "If those moving would notify us about what day they will be leaving, then those moving in could make arrangements with their landlords. This isn't for us, but for those coming in after
them."

Home Ec department tours Europe CSU's Home Economic Department sponsored a study tour May 10-June 1 for 41 undergraduate and graduate students, according to Dr. K. Sears, advisor for child development and Dr. C.R. Myers, advisor for interior design in the Home Economic Department. The countries toured were: Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands and England. According to the professors, the group was met in Germany by British professor McGregorHastie and his Italian wife, an artist who traveled with the tour serving as a guide and an interpreter. Sears noted that several different professional speakers from all the countries spoke to the group on the child development area and the students also saw several government agencies in charge of the educational system. "In Paris, we toured UNESCO and Children International Centers," said Sears. "We visited some famous buildings such as Pirelli in Italy, which is the first sky scraper and other contemporary buildings such as the Navy Exhibition." The students also took time out of the educational experience to enjoy all of the sights in the countries they traveled in. "Their attitudes towards the Americans in all the countries were that Americans were spoiled and very rich," said Myers. "It was fun seeing their customs and the way people dressed in all the countries visited," added Myers. "Everytime we went to another country everything was

The weather didn't ruin the trip for the students. It was warm and beautiful. The students also stayed in hotels in all the countries so that they could get the true flavor of the countries. "We didn't loose anybody or any passports and everything turned out pretty well," said Sears. "It seems to have been a very educating trip."

Med student given scholarship Robert Fuller, a CSU premedical student has been named as the 1982-83 recipient of the Coburn Scholarship. The Coburn Scholarship program was founded in 1976 by the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine to assist worthy students in their pursuit toward a career in the practice of medicine. The program covers five levels; a senior (undergraduate) competitive for admission to the OU College of Medicine and one student at each level in the OU College of Medicine. Nominees are recommended by college and university pre-medical advisors across the state. Selection is based on financial need and a definite capacity and potential to succeed in qualifying for medical school. Fuller will receive $5,000 during his senior year and upon acceptance into the College of Medicine he will receive an additional $5,00 each of the following four years. Fuller is currently participating in the Harvard University Health Professions Summer Program. Acceptance to the institute is bas-
ed on outstanding achievement and the program is designed to give pre-medical students experience and exposure they may not have had an opportunity to obtain. In June, Fuller accepted a medical research fellowship at Oklahoma Memorial Hospital to study the effect of agent orange on animal tissue. He has worked at Oklahoma Memorial Hospital
in necropsy and at Baptist Medical Center as a phlebotomist. Fuller, a native of California, spent two years in West Germany as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He attended Citrus College at Azusa, Calif., before attending CSU and he will resume work toward a degree in foreign languages at the University of Oklahoma this fall.

Selecting and making effective and safe use of hand and power tools are also parts of the course. "The course will include guest speakers who are experts in their fields from firemen to exterminators," said Osgood. "The information will not only help you keep ahead of day to day maintanence problems but it will also help you make decisions about major repairs or replacement of household appliances," added Osgood. "The advantages of doing your own repairs include not only saving time and money but many doit-yourselfers say they do it for the self-satisfaction of putting an appliance back in service or restoring some part of their home," Osgood said. The course has no prerequisite and may be taken as an upper division general education elective for students working toward a degree. "It will be offeredin both morning and evening sessins which will enable homemakers and retirees as well as business people to take the course," added Osgood.

Journalism chairman retires from Navy More than 38 years of service in the U.S. Naval Reserve ended July 10, for Commander Ray Tassin, former state newspaperman and chairman of the Journalism Department at CSU since 1961. Tassin was transferred to the retired reserve in "mustering out" ceremonies at the U.S. Naval Reserve Center in Oklahoma City. He served with various intelligence units there for the past 21 years, an average of 80 days of active duty a year and achieving perfect drill attendance and 11 letters of commendation. Admiral John W. Cronin, director of the Naval Reserve Intelligence Program read a letter of appreciation to the assembled reservists. The letter summarized Tassin's service aboard three destroyers in the Pacific during World War II and various naval stations and ships since that time. It also cited his seven campaign medals and 14 battle stars.
War II, including those in the Phillippines, Iwo JIM, Okonawa and others. He also participated in shore bombardments of Japan during the final three months of the war. After the war Tassin worked up through the ranks to chief journalist, then was commissioned as an officer in 1960. Tassin holds BA and MA degrees in journaism and political science from the University of Oklahoma, and a PhD in jour-
Review by Ann Owens to sabotage the U.S. Defense system. As the plot progresses, the innocent and law-abiding Wilder is unvoluntarily intervened into a dangerous and illigitimate scandal. By the time that Wilder meets with Radner, he is a wanted murderer with his picture in every post office. Radner cleverly disguises herself as a rookie news reporter interested only in a flashy news story. Later we learn that her true interests are the cause of her brother's suicide and of course Wilder's baby blue eyes. After a wild and frantic chase, the love stricken couple become heroes.

tiome of humor you will be disappointed. Radner who portray's a sweet energetic woman is not funny, but Radner doesn't try to be funny. She merely portray's the somewhat boring character she was cast as and does a good job at it. Gene Wilder's humor is another story. Without Wilder's spontaneous wit and his movie given ability to get involved in illegal messes, as he does in Stir Crazy, the movie would be a flop. Wilder, without a doubt, is "Hanky Panky's" main attraction. "Hanky Panky" moves rapidly—at times too rapidly. The plot is confusing for awhile until the end when all the loose ends fall into place. Amidst the humor, violence and downright craziness, "Hanky-Panky" depicts an significant problem that exists in today's society, the movie stresses that often the innocent are accused. Wilder plays a straight, lawabiding citizen, but just by being in the wrong place at the wrong time he is turned into a wanted killer. I think the movie suggests that these bazaree misunderstandings can happen to anyone.

Simons holds backyard Raku for onlooking pottery class The ceramics class got an extra treat when they toured a backyard workshop of art professor Franklin Simons. Today's project -Raku-style firing, a Japanese technique where red-hot pottery is taken directly from the kiln and smoked as it cools. Simons built most of his own equipment, above, including this kiln. Today's pieces will be baked at about 1500 - 1600 F, just enough to melt the glaze.

Strips of cedar, old newspapers and other combustable materials are positioned under the smoking barrel, left. "As soon as I take (the pot) out of the kiln it begins to cool rather
rapidly," said Simons. "But once I put the barrel over it, the cooling process slows down. It takes about an hour to cool a large piece." Below left, the pieces of unglazed pottery idle on the shelves of Simon's workshop. Simons has created pottery since his college days, when he first began to see the potential in the clay. Although Theresa Witt never worked with clay before this summer, below right, she has already "thrown" six pieces on the potter's wheel. "This sort of thing is great to do in the winter!" Wood and paper blaze on contact, bottom left, creating the irridescent, smoky glaze typical of Raku pottery, bottom right.

Project Bright Light honors student with scholarships
Vista photo by Devin Reeder
Students competed for scholarships Friday night at Project Bright Light, held in the Liberal Arts Building. LEFT TO RIGHT: Dr. Tom Guild, professor of political science; James Castor, chief judge; Sharon Carney, instructor of political science; Ed Sosson, KTOK; Mark Myers, third place winner; Mirka Markham, fourth place winner; Wayne Kever, first place winner and John Buttry, second place winner.
It was almost like a grade school spelling bee. Only the prizes were scholarships and the contestants were newly graduated high school seniors. Instead of spelling words contestants had to correctly answer questions on current happening events on the state, national and international levels. Everyone had two chances before they were eliminated. That's what happened Friday night when 10 Oklahoma City area high school students gathered at CSU for "Project Bright Light." Sponsored jointly by KTOK Radio and CSU, "Project Bright
Security police more than 'ticket writers' Usually when a student sees the police force they either freeze up, break out into a cold sweat, slam on ther brakes or utter unmentionable words when instead the sight of a policeman should bring a sigh of relief. Protecting the property and the people of the university has been the goal of the CSU Security Police Department, "The Police Department is a service type institution here for the people although some think that we aren't here for that purpose because we do aive tickets and fines," said Chief Jim Dunn, of the CSU Police system. "But if problems arise such as dead batteries or flat tires, we'll help because we are here for servicing the people," added Dunn. The campus' biggest security
problem sterns from the influx of commuter traffic. That means that nine officers stay pretty busy issuing tickets varying from parking tickets to decal violations. "We could build a bronze parking lot in honor of how many times people have gotten parking violations," said Dunn. "After five or more tickets we tow the car," added Dunn. Since the commuter population is the heaviest during the day, the night time violations are not as frequent. Even with the dorms and sporting events going on there are fewer violations at night. According to Dunn, three to four police are usually on guard at the sporting events, but never more than that, due to a lack of interest.

In the old days the Security System consisted of a handful of old janitors, but since the anti-war days of the 60s started, the system has been made stronaer. Spanning from a four person force to a nine person force, including the Chief, CSU has come a long way. There are two cars and a campus van/ambulance in case of emergencies. The campus police carries the same authority as the city police systems, giving them the power to arrest if necessary.

When the night was over, Wayne Kever, a graduate of Carl Albert High School, walked away with a full year's scholarship to CSU, that includes tuition, fees, books, room, and board.

He receives a tuition waiver scholarship for one year. Myers is a gradute of Putnam City North High School.
