Campus jobs to endure budget cuts By Shannon Blockcolski Editor Student, faculty and staff jobs are not in jeopardy, even though the State Regents for Higher Education approved a $2,351,781, or 10.1 percent, decrease in CSU's state appropriated funds, according to Larry Williams, vice president of administration. "We have tried to maintain the integrity of the employment situation," Williams said. "We do not expect any general reduction in

salaries, and there will be no employment terminations." According to Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president, the university's state appropriated funds are equal to what they were in 1983, when the student enrollment equalled 13,000. A record in enrollment has been set for the last four years, Lillard said, but at the same time there has been no increase in state funding. "We have the same amount of

Survey results caused parking ticket changes By Shannon Blockcolski Students receiving a ticket for parking in a no parking zone or facultystaff area will notice a $5 fine increase, according to Campus Police Chief Bob - Roberts. Roberts said the decision to raise the no parking zone, staff faculty area violations to $10 was made after Campus Police conducted a survey of 26 universities' parking situations. "We knew we had a parking problem at this university, and we wanted to see how other universities handled their parking," Roberts said. He also attended a parking seminar with eight other university representatives at Oklahoma State University this summer. "CSU rated as one of the lowest schools in violations at the seminar," Roberts said. "At other schools, all parking violations are $10 each." Faculty or staff who park in their designated areas without a registered decal receive a $5 noregistration violation. The previous no-registration fine was $3 for the first nine weeks of a semester and $5 for the second nine weeks. The increase in the campus street speed limit from 15 mph to 20 mph also resulted from the survey, Roberts said. "We had received numerous complaints concerning the speed limit, so we decided to follow the example of several other universities," said Roberts. Roberts doesn't anticipate any pro,blems as a result- of the speed increase, he said, since the 20 mph speed limit has been successful at other campuses. "We wanted to be more fair and in line with everybody else," he added.

money, but with increasing enrollment our jobs become more difficult," Lillard said. "Yet I would rather have the problem of finding places for students than having to find students." State appropriated funds account for 75 percent of CSU's entire budget, with 25 percent corning from tuition and fees. Lillard said the 10.1 percent decrease actually accounts for a 7 to 7.5 percent cut in the total budget. The main concern with the budget cuts, Lillard said, is in the personnel department. Several positions will remain unfilled, and some full time employees in administration may take on part time jobs with no pay raise, he added. For the 1985 fiscal year, $1,050,000 was cut from the budget, bringing the total decrease in funds to approximate-

ly $3 million in the last two years. Williams said the decrease obviously effects programs of proposed expansion and the amount of financial support given to academic and non-academic programs. The majority of the budget, 60.6 percent, is allocated toward instruction and academics. The general administration and expense portion of the budget consists of 8.8 percent. According to Williams, the amount recommended for administration and expense is 15 percent. "We are incredibly understaffed administratively, but I want to show people that we are more willing to make reductions in administration than in academics," he said. Because of the budget reduction•, the administration has divided the programs into three

groups, Williams said. Some programs need enhancements and additional resources, such as the library, physical plant and the masters in psychology degree. Other areas will continue to receive the same level of support, including the majority of academic programs. The third group consists of those programs the budget decrease will effect, such as administration and student services. These departments mainly will notice a delay in the purchasing of supplies and equipment, Williams said. "We are not as financially well off as we would like to be. But we are still strong, vibrant and able to maintain a good quality of equipment for academics," Williams said.

Roberts said the radar, installed in January, has proven effective in controlling the campus-wide speed limits. "It's easier to go to traffic court for a speeding ticket when we have radar readings," Roberts said. A previously restricted parking lot outside of Broncho Fieldhouse is now unrestricted and all cars with any CSU decal can legally park in the area, Roberts said. Roberts stressed the need for students to understand the restricted parking area times. All parking lots except for those designated on each person's decal are restricted from 7 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. From 12:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. any student can park in any student lot and any faculty member in any faculty lot. The only restricted parking from 5:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. is the handicap, no parking and 24-hour staff areas. "The most important thing to remember is that all vehicles must possess a current parking decal," Roberts said. The fines for each parking violation are: $3 for a parking meter violation, $5 for a no registration decal $5 for improperly affixed decal or permit $5 for forging or altering decal or permit $5 for improperly located decal or permit $5 for parking in an nonauthorized lot $5 for displaying an expired state registration $5 for incorrect parking $10 for parking in a no parking zone $10 for parking in a staff area $25 for parking in a handicap space.

Bronchos move to NCAA brings new exposure By John Helsley Sports Editor The CSU athletic program is moving up! The Bronchos are leaving the NAIA behind and stepping up to the NCAA as a Division II school in all sports. It won't be effective until July 1, 1987, but it is a move which is much needed and justified. Central State has literally outgrown the NAIA. Where 82 percent of current NAIA schools have an enrollment of less than 3,000, CSU totals over 13,000 students. Commentary The move will provide athletes as well as the university with many new and exciting opportunities. As a member of the NCAA, athletes who compete in individual sports such as wrestling, track, tennis and golf can earn a chance to qualify for Division I championships and the excellent exposure that goes with it. There seems to be a sort of mystique associated with the NCAA; a feeling of "big-time" athletics. NCAA teams receive an overwhelming majority of the media's attention while NAIA teams are used to fill newspaper space on the back pages. ABC Television telecasts the Division II football semifinals and finals live. Have you ever seen an NAIA game on national television? Exciting times are ahead for CSU athletes and fans as the Bronchos enter a new era. If the challenge is answered, who knows? Maybe Al Michaels and Frank Gifford will make a trip to Edmond, Oklahoma.

Student's rights defended By Shannon Blockcolski Editor My main goal as editor of The Vista this semester is to represent the voice of an often ignored aspect of this university, the student. This semester everyone at this institution will feel the financial crunch caused by the recent budget cuts. Most students already have experienced economic strains through higher tuition and fees, increased housing

payments and decreased financial aid. Commentary In the midst of economic tension, the student could become a low priority in the minds of some state and university leaders. Besides covering campus news and events, my staff and I will also provide a forum for the students, in hopes of keeping their needs important to the establishment.

I encourage all students to provide The Vista with suggestions, constructive criticism and letters to the editor. This is the student's newspaper, not the administration or alumni's. I want this paper to represent the wishes, goals, opinions and needs of the students. We are the future. If not properly educated nor treated with respect, some of us could carry apathy and a disdain for authority .into the "real world."

Editorial

Liquor by the drink: a success or failure? By Kim Voynar Associate Editor One year after the first mixed drinks were legally served in the state, one of the most steadfast opponents of liquor by the drink says Oklahoma is better off now. Richard McCartney, past chairman of the Oklahoma is OK anti-liquor by the drink committee, said since there now is enforcement of the serving of alcoholic beverages, the state is better off than it was before. On the other side of the coin, proponents who predicted the law would increase business and bring millions of dollars to the state's coffers now admit they were wrong. According to Alcoholic Beverage Laws Enforcement Commission and the Oklahoma Tax Commission officals, the two groups collected approximately $12 million from liquor licenses and taxes in the liquor by the drink law's first year. However, wholesale liquor prices have dropped 12.8 percent and wine sales 7.7 percent since the law has been in effect, according to an ABLE Cornmission official. In addition, club and bar owners

also are reporting a decrease in sales. According to Tulsa's Finance and Revenue Department, 67 clubs have closed since July 1985, when the first legal drinks were served. It appears in the battle for and against liquor by the drink, neither side was right nor wrong. Both sides, however, are quick to blame or give credit to other factors for their erred predictions. Ron Willis, ABLE director, attributes the decrease in sales not to the new liquor law, but to the drop in the state's economy, the high level of enforcement and a change in the attitude of society. Durng the heat of the battle in 1984, McCartney said, "legalizing liquor by the drink will result in an increase in highway fatalities." In actuality, the number of alcoholrelated fatal accidents in the state has not dramatically changed since liquor by the drink was passed. Between July 1984 and April 1985, the Oklahoma State Traffic Safety Department reported 203 alcoholrelated fatalities. From July 1985 to April 1986 there were 202 alcoholrelated fatalities.

McCartney praised the Able Commission for its "very intense enforcement program," but warned unless the Commission receives more funds "we're going to have an enforcement problem." It is obvious liquor by the drink has both good and bad points. Although the law has failed to raise the $30 million its proponents estimated, at least the predicted increase in traffics fatalities was wrong, too. However, two wrongs don't make a right, and only time will tell if liquor sales will go back up to their pre-liquor law level. As McCartney said, without more operating funds for the ABLE Commission, enforcement will indeed become a serious problem, and alcohol-related traffic fatalities very well may increase. So far, the liquor by the drink law has proved financally fruitless, even detrimental. Hopefully, the factors affecting the decrease in sales and business will change for the better and make the law worthwhile. Yet at the same time the number of alcoholrelated traffic fatalities wil stay low. The law still has time to prove itself. As McCartney said, "One year doesn't tell the whole story."

Dimension News: World, state and local Pencil voting replaced Voters who expected the pencil and paper voting procedure Tuesday may have noticed they were replaced with computerized voting machines. The newness and breakdowns of the machines caused several problems, a voting official said. A secretary from the Oklahoma County election board said many of the problems were caused from jamming because voters didn't know how to insert the ballot. The other problems occurred when election workers stuffed all of the ballots in at once and failed to remove the stubs, the official said.

Eruption kills Africans A gas eruption occuring over the weekend in Cameroom, Africa, killed 1,534 people and more than 7,000 cattle. Authorities said the disaster conditions still exist for those who survived the explosion. One doctor said those who survived had serious lung diseases and were in danger of receiving pneumonia. Figures gathered from the Office of the U.N. Coordinator for Disaster Relief show 1,543 bodies have been counted and others are still being discovered. 300 people have been hospitalized and more than 20,000 others were affected by the damage. A disaster investigator stated the eruption resulted from a huge bubble of heavy volcanic gas long trapped in the lake. This gas was released by an explosion deep down in the waters of the crater.

State's oil prices up When the average posted prices for oil were weighed this week, they were $1 higher than last week and $2 higher than two weeks ago, a corporation commissioner said. The increase occurred in all grades of oil. The average price of Oklahoma oil, low sulphur, is $14.25 a barrel. High sulphur was weighed in at $13.50 a barrel.

Vacancies filled by 23 faculty From Staff Reports

An additional 23 people have joined the CSU faculty to fill long time vacancies and positions open due to retirements. The full-time positions not filled were staffed by new and returning adjunct faculty and professors in the department who took over additional courses. Dr. Clyde Jacobs, assistant vice president of academic affairs, said this number was exceedingly good for the economic situation in Oklahoma. "We looked at each program's needs. We asked the dean and chairperson in each department for a personel forecast to help make the decision on which positions needed to be filled. In some departments, two may have retired and only one was replaced

Penthouse sued for libel The parents of four girls who were accused last year of beating up boys during recess sued "Penthouse" magazine for $7.5 million. The girl's parents claimed the magazine libeled their children by publishing a photo of them under a sexually suggestive headline. The parents said the picture of the children, entitiled, "Little Amazons Attack Boys," cast the girls and the parents in a false light. The parents stated their reason for accusing the magazine was that in an article in the same issue, Amazon was described as a sexually aggressive and insatiable female. The magazine's vice president said the description did not relate to the photo and story featuring the children.

McEnroe loses at first At the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York, John McEnroe was the first finalist to lose in the first round since 1969. With this being his third tournament since a seventh month layoff, McEnroe said he felt like he was in a reasonably good frame of mind, gave a pretty good effort and was trying his best. With this defeat, McEnroe dropped to 21st in the computer ratings, the lowest ever in his career. In 1977, he was out of the U.S. Open in the fourth round.

By Kim Voynar Somewhere in outer space a lone spaceship hovers over a seemingly peaceful planet. Inside the ship is Ripley, the sole survivor of the ship's crew, her cat Jones and one murderous alien. Rather than let the alien survive, Ripley decides to vacate the ship in the escape capsule with her cat and set the ship to selfdestruct. Review The alien ends up in the capsule, but she manages to trap it in an airlock and blow it into space. Then she and Jones set the capsule's destination and go into hypersleep. Thus ended the sci-fi thriller "Alien," which frightened audiences out of their wits in 1979. Now the long-awaited sequel, "Aliens," finally has come out. Fifty-seven years after the end of the first film, Ripley and Jones

are awakened from hypersleep. Unfortunately, the administration stubbornly refuses to believe her monster story. After all, they reason, colonists have been living on the planet for over 20 years, and they haven't reported seeing any flesh-eating aliens. Suddenly, all contact with the colonists on the planet where Ripley and her crew encountered the alien is lost. The administration asks Ripley to return to the planet with a group of rough, tough, heavily armed space marines. She agrees to go on the condition that she will only be a consultant — she has no desire to face the alien a second time. Sigouney Weaver, who played Ripley in the original film, reprises her role in the sequel. Once again, she does an excellent job of portraying the tough but very human heroine. Ripley is not the typical horror movie female, depending on men

to save the day or spraining her ankle at a critical moment. Instead, she gets right in there and battles the alien. Another high point of the film is Carrie Henn as Newt, an adorable, tough little girl who is the only survivor of the colonists. "Aliens" is one of the few sequels even better than the

original. It is more than a horror movie. It is a movie about a woman fighting for her life against seemingly insurmountable odds. An excellent cast, lots of suspense and fear, and outstanding special effects make "Aliens" a must-see movie for horror film fans.

Senate positions From Staff Reports In its first meeting of the fall

semester, the Student Senate elected Nelaine Mason as speaker of the senate. Mason served in the spring semester as parliamentarian.

The senate also approved the appointments of Glen Kilgour as director of academic affairs, Roger Acebo as director of public

filled

relations and Kim Voynar as chair of student activities committee. The position of director of student affairs has not been filled. In other business, the senate passed a resolution suggesting the Student Association sponsor an activity to aid the families affected by the slayings at the Edmond Post Office last week. A task force will be formed to decide what action the association will take, according to Student Association president Jeff Shilling.

Crismon, 22, recently graduated from the Kansas City Art Institute. He was offered the position to fill a vancancy left by an art professor who retired. "I went to high school in Edmond and I'm good friends with Dr. Clif Warren, since I took a few classes here while in high school. My parents live here so it was just like coming back home," Crismon said. Crismon's art was put on display so students could see examples of his work and meet the "new" professor, he said. His work is a combination of watercolors, print making, painting, woodwork and wax. Crismon said his art would be more acceptable on the coasts than in the midwest, but it wasn't startling.

The variety of Crismon's styles can be seen on different walls in the museum. One wall is dedicated to his paintings of beautiful, classy women done in pastels, using white and bright colors for clothing. Another wall displays prints of a car, an airplane and a well-dressed woman. His watercolor painting is seen in various works of hands, camouflaged with larger hands or swords. The woodworking is joined with glass arranged in various ways or imitation knives sticking out from the edges. "I get my ideas from no one source. Each piece is a little bit of a focal point. They say things I couldn't say verbally," Crismon said.

Money Wantland Stadium was the site of a memorial service held 4 p.m. Sunday for 14 Edmond postal employees shot by co-worker Pat Sherrill August 20 in what authorities call the largest mass murder in the state's history. Approximately 5,000 people attending the ceremony looked on as U.S. Postmaster General Robert Preston Tisch, Gov. George Nigh and Edmond Mayor Carl Reherman presented condolences and speeches.

Also speaking at the service were the Rev. Joel Baker, minister of Edmond's First Presbyterian Church, two postal employees who were on vacation during the shootings and Michael Bigler, a survivor of the attack. Tisch said the 14 postal workers had brothers and sisters in every town, and the 40,000 post offices across the nation joined the Edmond post office in mourning the tragedy. The families of the deceased were seated in front of the

speakers' platforms. Behind them were 14 empty rows, representing each of the slain postal workers. The memorial service was originally to be held at Liberty Park. "Because of such an overwhelming public response from people who wanted to attend the service, it was decided to move the service to some place where parking would not be a problem," said Edmond City Manager Joe Minner.

Bronchos plan move to NCAA in '87 By John Helsley Sports Editor

CSU's athletic programs will make the move to NCAA Division ll beginning with the 1987 season as they have accepted an invitation to join the Lone Star Conference. The Presidents Council of the LSC unanimously approved CSU's entering the conference at an August 9 meeting in Dallas. The Bronchos affiliation with the Lone Star will officially begin on July 1, 1987, ending a 49 year association with the NAIA. The Lone Star Conference is currently made up of Angelo State in San Angelo, Texas; Abilene Christian in Abilene, Texas; East

Burning the midnight oil may be necessary. Burning the 2:00 or 3:00 or 4:00 AM oil is absurd. Especially when an HP calculator can get the answers you want — in time to get a good night's - sleep. For instance, our HP-15C Professional Scientific Calculator has more built-in advanced math and statistical power than any other calculator. Our HP-41 Advanced Scientific Calculators have even more potential.

Texas State in Commerce, Texas; Howard Payne in Brownwood, Texas; Texas A&I in Kingsville, Texas; West Texas State in Canyon, Texas and Eastern New Mexico in Portales, N.M. "We're very excited about the opportunities our university and our athletes will be offered by being part of the Lone Star Conference and the NCAA," said Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU President. The move should alleviate scheduling problems for the football and basketball teams created by a boycott of the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Conference and the unwillingness of opponents to agree to home and home series.

"It's a good opportunity for our athletic programs," said CSU Athletic Director John "Skip" Wagnon. "We'll have better cornpetition and our athletes in individual sports will have a chance to compete for NCAA Division I championships. It will also make scheduling much easier." CSU should adjust smoothly to the NCAA, mainly because Broncho teams have scheduled and performed well against many Division II teams in the past. This fall, five of the seven members of the LSC are on CSU's football schedule and the Lady Broncho basketball team is scheduled to play in a classic Dec. 5-6 at West Texas.

That's because there are better than 2500 software packages available for them — more than for any other calculator. There's even a special plug-in software package (we call it the Advantage Module) that's designed to handle the specific problems an engineering student has to solve in his, or her, course work. No wonder professionals in engineering and the physical sciences widely regard HP calculators as the best you can get. So check one out.

Cafeteria now offers 'all you care to eat' By Kim Voynar Resident students entering the school's cafeterias for the first time this year may have noticed a few changes in the way they are run. Food Services has introduced a new "all you care to eat" system this year. Students may return for seconds, or even thirds, on everything but the entree. The change was made on the recommendation of Robert Fields, director of auxiliary enterprises, and was approved by the administration this summer. Fields said the decision to make the change was based in part on the result of resident surveys taken last April. He said some of the students had complained they couldn't get enough food on the old unit system. Residents seem to have mixed reactions about the new system so far. Some have complained there is a longer wait to get to the serving lines. "It just seems like we have to wait in line a lot longer under this

cafeterias operate is the time dinner is served. Previously, dinner was served from 5-6 p.m. Because of complaints in the April survey, dinner is now being served until 6:30 p.m., Fields said. "Whenever you change something, it always takes a few weeks to work things out," said Fields. "Of course things aren't always going to go smoothly, but we try to keep a balance."

new system," said Becky Wooldridge, senior. "But on the other hand, we can get more food so I guess it's not all bad." Fields said the lines won't always be as long as they are now. He said the cafeteria is not operating with a full staff yet. "I anticipate the lines to decrease within the next few weeks," said Fields. Another change in the way the

Our three-year and twoyear scholarships won't make college easier. Just easier to pay for. Even if you didn't start college on a scholarship, you could finish on one. Army ROTC Scholarships pay for full tuition and allowances for educational fees and textbooks. Along with up to $1,000 a year. Get all the facts. BE ALL YOU CAN BE.
