Funds for tuition aid grants, increased for 1982.83 year The Oklahoma Tuition Aid grant program has more than $8.9 million available for grants to Oklahoma college students in 1982-83. In one of its final actions before adjournament, the 1982 Oklahoma Legislature appropriated an additional $6.6 million in state funds for the grants. The legislature had earlier appropriated $1.4 million for the program which is administered by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. Another $991,546 has been made available for the program through the federal State Student Incentive Grant program, bringing the total funding for the OTAG program to $8,999,955, an increase of $6,924,518 over the
amount available for the student grants in 1981-82. All of the increased funds have come from state appropriations. The federal portion was reduced by four percent under budget rescissions announced earlier in the year, reflecting a general cutback in federal student assistance programs. The 1982 Oklahoma Legislature also revised key provisions of the Tuition Aid Grant program, increasing the size of individual grants and expanding their availability to part-time and graduate students for the first time. The Legislature raised the maximum yearly amount the most needy students may receive from $500 to $1,000 and raised the ad-
justed family income level for participation to $20,000. Previously, the program had been restricted to full-time, undergraduate students. Although still restricted to Oklahoma residents, the tuition assistance grants are now available for students carrying as few as six semester credit hours, at either the undergraduate or graduate levels. Applications for the grants are made through the financial aid offices at all Oklahoma colleges and universities. Purpose of the program, which was created by the 1972 Oklahoma Legislature, is to help defray the costs of attending college of Oklahoma students who have demonstrated financial need.

Apartment living costs much higher than student housing rates By Patricia Uselton For the tenants in Married Student Apartments, just getting an apartment could be a study in patience. It's not uncommon for a couple to wait over a year before their name reaches the top of the
list. So where do they live until them? On-campus housing includes an open end lease, a $150 deposit and all bills are paid through the rent. A one bedroom unfurnished apartment is rented at $158, one
bedroom furnished and two bedroom unfurnished units are $174 and two bedroom furnished units are $200. Children are accepted and a $50 per month fee allows cat and dog owners to keep their pets.
Class marshals selected on overall GPA Candyce Slack Adams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Robert Slack, 8909 N.W. 80, Oklahoma City, and Leslie B. Phillips daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Donald R. Phillips, 3408 S.E. 46th St., Oklahoma City, has been selected to serve as class marshalls for CSU's 1982 summer commencement ceremony, July 29, at Edmond.
The honor of class marshall goes to the seniors with the highest overall grade point average. Adams was one of two selected for the honor. Her grade point is 3.9568. Adams, an accounting major, has been listed on the President's Honor Roll. She is a member of the accounting club, the student
bar association and Alpha Chi, a national honor society. Phillips is graduating with a perfect 4.0 grade point average. Phillips, a psychology major, is a graduate of Mount Saint Mary's High School where she was named the Outstanding Band Musician in 1976. At CSU, Phillips has been listed on the President's Honor Roll throughout her college career and was named Outstanding Undergraduate Psychology Student for 1982.
Over a dozen apatment complexes lie within a few blocks of the campus. Of the 14 polled, one bedroom unfurnished apartments range from $255 all bills paid at the Four Winds to $370 plus electricity at Brentwood Forest Apartments. Unfurnished two bedroom units range from $330 at the Four Winds to $429 all bills paid at Kickingbird Apartments. And then there's Brentwood Forest again, with two bedroom flats at $475 and $485, or two bedroom townhouses at $510. Only four complexes surveyed had furnished apartments. Four Winds had $290 one bedroom units and $360 two bedroom units, all bills paid. Meadow Lakes ran from $335 to $395, plus electricity, for their one and two bedroom units. Casa Mia had $360 one bedroom and $395 two bedroom apartments, plus electricity, and Kickingbird had $364 one bedroom and $464 two bedroom units, all bills paid.
The five apartments which allow children range from $350 to $475 for a two bedroom, unfurnished apartment. And only one, Brentwood Forest, allows pets after paying a $500 refundable pet deposit. Joyce McEwen, property management director for Titan Management Services in Edmond, painted a bleaker picutre for the house rental market. "There's not that much housing in Edmond under $600 a month. They are there for around $350 but for every one of those there are a dozen for $700." The average runs between $600 and $900 a month, excluding pet and safety deposits. "I deal with it every day, with people from all walks of life," said McEwen. "$500 is sometimes all they can afford to pay, but I can't put my hands on anything for that price. And if I can find anything, then it'll probably be two bedrooms which, if the person has children, is too small."

Old road through campus shows wear, needs repair Bumpy roads are nothing new to Oklahoma drivers. Chuckholes, potholes, and dips abound everywhere. The area on Ayers street between University and Chowning is one of the worst. The bumps and holes on that particular stretch of road are so numerous and severe that the average driver hesitates to take his car on that road. But take it he must. It is a major road through the CSU campus. Dorm residents, commuters and Edmond drivers must use it daily. In addition to tearing up the car, it slows down traffic and is extremely dangerous in bad weather. The road continues to get worse every year. With all the traffic that passes over it daily, it naturally shows the wear. And the extremes in weather
the road, and many dorm residents will return home during the break. Traffic will be greatly reduced, thereby causing inconvenience to many less people. The point is that the city needs to repair the street soon. The longer it is let go the worse it will become, and the harder it will be to repair. After the road is repaired, students will be able to get to school easier, and the flow of traffic will be greatly facilitated. CSU has some serious image problems. The way the campus looks is one of those problems. If the road is fixed, this could be a positive step in helping the image of the school. All the drivers would appreciate it, too. James Jones

that Oklahomans experience cause it to erode more rapidly. From the icy winter to the blazing summer sun in just a few months is hard for a road to take. So a road that is already bad continues to get worse. It clearly needs to be repaired. The road needs to be made level, holes filled in and bumps ground down. And it needs to be of a permanent, durable nature. Repairing a road always presents problems. Drivers must be detoured, and, depending on the time needed for repairs, this can be a great inconvenience.

fixed and spruced up the chapter house. A few of the girls also pitched in and helped with work. On the weekend of June 25-27 the chapter hosted a regional Delta Zeta Leadership Conference. Delta Zeta National Council officers lead the workshops, including Carolyn Gullatt National President Debbie Bruce. National Vice president for Membership and Alumna of the CSU cahpter, and Dee Porter National Vice president of Collegiate Affairs. August 1, on the day of the Panhellenic Ice Cream Social will be a Rush school. At this meeting there will also be officer elections for a new president, treasurer and other offices.
"It is a rare opportunity to have such a cross-section of American and international travelers learn about Oklahoma and hopefully make plans to visit our state," said Abe L. Hesser, executive director of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department. Tourism is Oklahoma's third largest industry, bringing more than $3.2 billion into the state during 1981.
Hiking trails popular among Oklahomans Students with a taste for the outdoors might consider leaving a weekend free to take advantage of Oklahoma's Hiking Trails. More and more Oklahomans ae spending their leisure time on to state's hiking trails. These trails fall into three categories: nature, day-hike and backpacking. The latter is usually considered to be an over-night hike. Oklahoma abounds with many unspoiled areas perfect for dayhikeing or backpacking. The Ouachita National Forest, in southeast Oklahoma, is one of the more popular areas. Here the primary trail in the Ouachita, which has four side trails: Old Military Road, Cedar Lake, Billy Creek and Holson Valley Trail. According to Abe L. Hesser, executive director of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department, the department has the responsibility for planning
the development of a state-wide trails system to serve the hikers. "This also includes development of trails and user areas for horsemen, bicyclists, motorcyclists, off-road vehicle ehthusiasts and canoeists," said Hesser. "This program, along with existing wildlands, assures Oklahomans of the finest in outdoor recreation opportunities now and in the future." Modern equipment and compact freeze-dried foods allow hikers to pack into any terrain for a number of days in modest comfort. Other backpacking trails in Oklahoma are: David L. Boren, at Broken Bow Reservoir; Jean Pierre Chouteau, on the Kerr Navigational Channel; Robbers Cave, Robbers Cave State Park; Greenleaf, at Greenleaf State Park and the Jane Dennis Trail on the east shore of Fort Gibson Reservoir.
Cholesterol free diet helps heart Students who are watching their diets and cutting down on foods loaded with cholesterol may be helping reduce the chance of having heart disease as they mature. Heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the U.S. Most heart trouble result from atherosclerosis, or "hardening of the arteries." The arteries of the body are tubes which must constantly supply blood containing life-giving oxygen and nourishment to the heart and other organs. Atherosclerosis can gradually thicken and narrow arteries until blood can no longer flow through them causing acute illness such as heart attack. According to Doctor Malcolm Pearce and Doctor Gilbert Campbell, who heads the Arkansas Clinical Center, a clue to the cause of atherosclerosis may be that cholesterol, a fatty substance, is found in the diseased arteries. Also, the amount of cholesterol found in our blood can predict, somewhat, how likely we are to have heart attacks. To find out, the University of Arkansas research team is now attempting to locate persons in this area who are between the ages of 30 and 64, who have had one heart attack within the past five
years. Interested persons are asked to call the University of Arkansas Hyperlipidemia Program's toll free number 1-800-643-8719.
The Oklahoma exhibit is located in the World Travel Expo near the International Court of Flags. The booth features color photographs representative of state attractions, events, state parks and resorts. Promotional literature and 1982 Oklahoma highway maps are distribut6d at no charge. More than 18,675 persons have stopped for information at the exhibit since the fair opened in May, a daily average of 431.
Drafting room under expansion The Department of Industrial Education is expanding its drafting room. The reason for it's expansion is to update facilities, offer current industrial drafting procedure and attract new students. The students to benefit from the expansion are the very ones involved in the construction. As a result the construction is costing the school less than it would have if it had been given to an outside contractor. Dr. Don Wilson's construction practices class are the students involved in the construction and the supervision is done by Dr. Emmet Osgood who is the head of the department. The expansion is expected to be completed next fall and will go into use by the spring of 1983.

"This is comparable to our busiest Traveler Information Center," added Hesser. The Tourism and Recreation Department operates 11 in-state centers at Oklahoma's highway points of entry and in Oklahoma City and Tulsa providing information to travelers entering the state and to state residents. Records at the exhibit indicate
that many Oklamans are attending the World's Fair. More than 1,063 Oklahomans from 118 cities and towns have stopped at the state display to boast about their home state. "This is impressive looking," said Toni Runnels of Moore as he stopped by the exhibit with his wife. "The photography is great!"

Caribbean cruises popular among vacationers More cruise ships are sailing than ever before for the sun and sea vacation. "The most popular cruise are the Cribbean tours. They have the best return rate of passengers than any single destination in the world," said Carolyn Hart, a cruise consultant from Nichols Executive Travel Service Inc. of Edmond. "The neat thing about a cruise is that once you've paid your money, you've paid it all for that week," said Hart. "This convenience sells the cruise along with the bonus that many cruise lines are offering free air fare." .....

rights, except maybe for pay problems." "I was more deterimental that it was attempted and failed that had it never been attempted in the first place," said Pamela Bocock, graduate student. "Legislators don't represent their constituents. They voice a monority opinion. It would have passed a general election. It justifies their sense of victory and it could falsely allow them to think since they won, discrimination is not a serious problem." "I'm pretty indifferent to the situation, although I wonder what would have happened if it had passed," said June Homesley, CSU journalism student. "I do think it will be brought up again." Views from others interviewed were that the ERA had long term positive effects. A woman supervisor in a large utility said that the amendment encouraged large companies to enact programs of better pay and better promotions for women before it became law. Another woman believed that the amendment even unradified, brought the matter to many people who had not thought about it. She said that it had made discrimination less socially acceptable and has also given hope to women who felt their problems were unique.

Learning other languages important for future Some people wonder why individuals that come to the U.S. from other countries often know more than one language and they wonder why Americans don't know another language besides English. According to Dr. Mildren Lyon, Chairman of the CSU Foreign Language Department, the reason why Americans don't know more than one language is because the U.S. is so big. Lyong pointed out that people in Oklahoma can drive for two or three hours and still be in the U.S., whereas Europeans can drive for the same amount of time and be in another country that has a different language. Also, Europeans learn another language at an early age, such as in primary school. In contrast, American public schools don't place much emphasis on learning another language. "The reason language is s difficult for the American student is because he does not know English grammer," said Lyon. "For the student that really knows grammer and how to diagram sentences, learning another language is relatively simple." Lyon thinks that knowing another language will be important in the future. She backs her reasoning with a statement that columnist Sylvia Porter made saying that "by the next century, out country's population will be onethird hispanic." According to Lyon, there are two professions that use language
as a primary tool. Translators write out translations and interpretors reproduce language orally. Schools, telephone people, councilors and sociologic people,
secretaries, banks and nurses are just a few positions and places where language is used as a secondary tool. Age 18 months is the best time to start learning a language, because that is when it is easiest to
make all the sounds that are needed. According to Lyon, only a few things would make learning another language easier: news casts in foreign languages, signs, menus, and good foreign movies.

Musicians play at summer concert The Central State summer band, above, presented a program for students and Edmond residents under the directions of Dr. Kent Kidwell, assistant professor of music, above right, last Thursday evening on the south lawn of the University Center. The performing groups included two jazz ensembles and one concert band. The music styles range from Count Basie jazz tunes and ballads to a medley of Sousa marches. The tunes seemed to please the crowd as Mary Kidwell and Anne Hamrick, right, applauded the bands. An alumnea, below right, plays intrecate
scales of his tuba during the performance, while Ginny Geis, below middle, timidly munches on watermelon. Marie Kash and Fenny Rucker, 1982 spring graduate, music majors enjoy the free watermelon provided by the Central State Cultural Arts Committee.
