Lewis breaks world record

By Marcia Benedict

Student Writer

TOKYO (AP)—Carl Lewis, who calls himself the old man of track, ran faster than he ever did in his youth as he pulled away from the field in the swiftest 100 meters in history. The 30-year-old Lewis not only sped past countrymen Leroy Burrell and Dennis Mitchell, he shattered Burrell's world record with a 9.86-second finishing time. The time clipped four-hundredths of a second off the previous mark of 9.90 set by Bun-ell at the U.S. Championships two months ago in New York.

Alleged victim claims no rape DANBURY (AP)—A 19-year-old woman who police charge was brutally raped by two men who videotaped the assualt said she doesn't believe she was raped. "I honestly don't think they should be charged with rape. The whole thing has been blown out of proportion," the woman told the NewsTimes of Danbury in a story published Sunday. Police filed charges Aug. 11 against Beau William Kotach, the woman's boyfriend, and Chester Horstek III after she complained she was assualted during a night of drinking. She told police she knew she had sex with at least one of them, but was unsure whether she had agreed.

Study says men holding top jobs WASHINGTON (AP)—Less than 3 percent of the top jobs at Fortune 500 companies were held by women in 1990, according to a study by a women's rights advocacy group. Only 175, or 2.6 percent, of the 6,502 corporate officers employed at the nations largest companies last year were women, according to a Feminist Majority Foundation study. The study, which looked at jobs at the level of vice president and up, was based on figures compiled by a University of Southern California researcher. "At the current rate of increase in executive women, it will take until the year 2466—or over 450 years—to reach equality with executive men," said Eleanor Smeel, the head of the RAT.

The 1991 fall enrollment at the University of Central Oklahoma is expected to be about the same as enrollment during the 1990 fall semester, said Darrell Gilliland, UCO registrar. Latest figures show 13,353 students have enrolled in fall courses. This is 1,148 students less than when enrollment ended for the 1990 fall semester, Gilliland said. "We are expecting approximately 14,500 students by the end of enrollment, Sept. 10," he said. Gilliland said fewer freshmen and graduate students would be attending courses this fall, compared to the 1990 fall semester. "Our head count is up, but we have less freshmen and graduate students than we did one year ago," he said. The approximate 8 percent tuition increase contributed to the low number of freshmen students, Gilliland said. "Many freshmen students did not have the money or the curricular requirements, so they've gone to community or two-year colleges," he said. An early due date for tuition and fees also influenced the lower enrollment, Gilliland said. "Moving the due date up a week cancelled about 1,600 people," he said. Cancelling students who did not pay tuition on time caused openings for students who enrolled late, he said. "With the number of students enrolling late, total enrollment should be close to or a little above last year," Gilliland said. V

Teacher education may face review By Barbara DeWailley Staff Writer State Regents for Higher Education may choose to begin a system-wide review of undergraduate teacher education this fall at 12 Oklahoma state colleges and universities. "We have been hearing this was going to occur for the past two years," said Dr. Kenneth Elsner, University of Central Oklahoma College of Education Dean. "We are not sure of the type of model or criteria they are going to use."

Elsner said one criteria he hoped they would include was NCATE, the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Edcucation. The proposed review would be conducted by an out-of-state team of experts who would identify and evaluate program strength and weaknesses. They would also assess the type of curriculum needed to provide the best educational experience for students wishing to enter the teaching profession. Review team members would use a corn-

bination of data and on-site visits to evaluate specific programs. "The Regents' review supports and furthers goals of House Bill 1017 by ensuring that teacher education programs prepare prospective and current teachers to help their students reach required levels of performance," said State Regents for Higher Education Chancellor Hans Brisch. Brisch said this system-wide review of academic programs would ensure academic excellence and system effeciency. V

Students hijacked by power politics Last spring the Oklahoma legislature adjourned and left the students and faculty of UCO hostages of funding of a capital improvement plan for higher education. While both the legislative leadership and Governor David Walters agreed to pay the ransom, campaign promises and power politics have deadlocked negotiations. The legislators proposed a simple solution of extending or increasing the so-called "sin taxes" to retire the bond indebtedness. But Walters, who campaigned for the governor's office on a platform of no new taxes, refused to support such a plan. Walters, on the other hand, insisted that the bond indebtedness should be paid out of the general fund. The legislative leadership argued that without some new source of income, those coffers are empty. So neither side was willing to meet in the middle on a compromise so they recessed to go home presumably to feather their beds. Meanwhile,college students and faculty held captive by their lack of action endure overcrowded classroom conditions, unpaved parking areas and wobbly furniture. Until the legislature and the governor agree who will be the "bag man" in the money drop, fresh paint and a patch of marigolds must make-do.

Increased costs push college to new status The tab for this semester's college education slaps students with a 7% increase in tuition, an extra $1 per hour activity fee and doubles add/drop fees. And a quick swing down any aisle in University Bookstore will reveal the shocking prices of some textbooks—$30 for many second-hand paperbacks. The cost of a single semester can easily hit the thousand dollar mark. At those prices the art department should consider redesigning the UCO logo so the letters interlock like the Gucci G's.

High on Nigh for president To the Editor: There seems to be a gap— between the state regents and the administration. And another gap between the administration and the faculty. I believe George Nigh can bridge those gaps. Nigh has been serving the State of Oklahoma since he graduated

from college some 40 years ago. He has proved his love and devotion for the people of this state time after time. He has been working on campus at UCO for four years already and knows well how the system works. He has proved to be accessible and interested in the needs of the students here.

I have known Gov. Nigh and his family for about ten years. He is a friendly, knowledgeable and honest man who loves Oklahoma. If we are lucky enough to acquire George Nigh as president of UCO, he will do an excellent job. Name Withheld By Request UCO Senior

Student supports death penalty To the Editor. I want to take a moment of your time to share with you my deep concern over the constantly increasing number of violent criminals who are wandering around Oklahoma. I am especially appalled at the large number of recidivist rapists and child molesters who have been paroled to strike again and again. I think it is cledar to most rational persons that our criminal justice system is a joke, and rehabilitation is a myth. We don't punish criminals and we don't rehabilitate them. Our justice system—the police and courts is swamped with violent, career criminals. Law-abiding men and women are at risk on the streets and in their homes. While you or I wouldn't want to spend any time in prison, most felons view a few years in prison as a rest and relaxation period. The Department of Criminal Housing and Recreation gives them three square meals each day, a place to sleep that is warm in winter and cool in

the summer, and the Playboy channel to watch. Enough is enough! The only casualties in the "War on Crime" are the innocent victims upon whom criminals prey. You occupy a unique position from which you have an extraordinary pulpit to influence our next generation of leaders. I urge you to consider supporting the enactment of laws that would put violent career criminals to death. Rapists, child molesters, drug dealers, and armed robbers should be executed. If Emil Young had been executed for his earlier crimes, two young Oklahomans would still be alive. If Oklahoma City's latest alleged serial rapist, Willie Coakley III, had been executed for his earlier raping binge in Arkansas, at least nine of our state's young women would not be accusing Coakley of terrorizing them. For the last half-century our laws have protected criminals at the expense of our citizenry. Our Judges and legislators have actu-

ally encouraged criminals. The first responsibility of government is to protect its citizens, and the laws are what "we the people ..." say they are. We should bestow upon criminals the same violence they indiscriminately sew (sic)on society. Americans have an acceptable level of death. Over 440,000 Americans die each year from smoking, and 49,000 more will die on our highways. We just slaughtered 100,000 Iraqis to secure our country's oil sources. America would tolerate the execudon of a few hundred thousand violent career criminals in order to regain control of our streets, to protect our wives and daughters, and to safeguard our homes. Now is the time, and we must be the ones who end the terrible reign of criminal tenor which has descended upon our country. I urge you to take an active and visible position in support of -the death penalty. Donald I. Paquin Graduate Student

Zig Zigler says success is a matter of choice By Penny Owen Staff Writer Patient, serene faces formed a line after the speech to wait for motivational speaker Zig Ziglar's autograph â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the same faces which, an hour before, grimaced with exasperation at the long buffet line. This contrast demonstrates the influence of attitude which Ziglar has successfully packaged and delivered to audiences for the past 19 years. Before a lunch crowd of about 2,000 Oklahoma State School Board Association members attending the 44th annual convention last Sunday, Ziglar spoke of the educator's role in society. "I believe one person can make a dramatic difference," he said. "As an educator, every time you communicate with a child, you don't know if you're touching the life of a future president." Ziglar stalks back and forth across the stage, punctuating his words with rhythmic right hand swats. He tells his audience that what children need today are encouragement coupled with honesty. He defines choices. "If I choose not to study, then I

am also choosing to be a mediocre, or less than mediocre student. Every choice has an end result." Ziglar stops, crouches down and holds out his arm for emphasis. He curls his rrr's like a revival preacher. "You can change what you are by changing what goes into your mind." He silently studies the faces in the audience before revealing more. "Your mind is the gateway to your heart." Ziglar's conclusions are backed by facts, which he said he spends over three hours a day gathering. For instance, he attributes a young adult's attitude that life should be one big party to a statistic that by age 18 a person has absorbed 30,000 hours of entertainment. The importance of discipline is driven home by the fact that most great leaders, including six out of seven presidents and 217 current congressmen, have had military training. Ziglar draws parallels between faith in God and success, citing that most Fortune 500 CEOs and vice-presidets learned their values in church. "Every great failure is a moral

Sometimes it's necessary to 'translate' the ad libs By Jo Pydynkowsky Guest Columnist

emember when "shit" and "damn" couldn't be found in print let alone pronounced over the air waves on televison or radio? Well, the times they are a changin'. The 43rd Annual Prime Time Emmy Awards ceremony proved that. Somebody shot the censors. First, they had a comic who did a routine on masturbation. Now, remember, this was prime time and my son was watching with me. He's five. "Mommy, what's mastibuton?" God gave me inspiration. "It's a new form of air filtration, honey," I said. He took that explanation with the same air he took the one about babies coming from God. "Thanks, Mom." Then, one of my favorite actresses, at least she was until this show aired, won the Emmy for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her work on "Cheers." All was fine until she thanked her husband Parker Stevenson for "giving me the big one for the past eight years." I knew it was coming. "Mommy, what's the big one?" "A kiss, honey," I told him. "Thanks, Mommy." I exhaled slowly. Burt Reynolds won Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his work on "Evening Shade" and I was positive there wouldn't be a problem there. After all, he's a family man and it was prime time television - family time... then he thanked wife Loni Anderson for giving him the big one for eleven and a half years or "the big two, actually," and my world started crumbling. I flinched as my son turned toward me. "Two big kisses, dear," I said quickly, and smiled. "Thanks, Mom." Wait until he grows up and finds his mother lied to him. I owe those censors. It's a good thing someone else shot them first. I decided not to watch the Emory Awards next year. Not just because of the sexual innuendos, sleazy outfits, or dirty jokes ... there is definitely something wrong with an awards system that doesn't nominate Andy Rooney for something. "Mom, who's Andy Rooney?" I thanked God for a question I could finally answerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; truthfully. V

Oklahoma SAT scores drop, verbal and math skills lower OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Scholastic Aptitude Test scores dipped slightly in Oklahoma in verbal skills and math last year, but were higher than the nationwide averages, officials announced Monday. The College Board in New York released nationwide results of SAT testing showing a record low in verbal skills and a decline in math scores nationwide for the first time since 1980. Board President Donald M. Stewart said the drop signaled a "disturbing pattern of educational disparity" in which too many students aren't studying enough advanced high school courses to do well on the college entrance examination. Math averages nationwide declined two points to 474 among students taking the test in the 1990-91 school year, while scores on the verbal section averaged 422.

In Oklahoma, the verbal average was 476, compared with 478 a year ago. The math average was 521, two points lower than the 1989-90 school year. Only 9 percent of students took the tests in Oklahoma, compared with as many as 81 percent in other states. Iowa, which led all states in the scoring, also had the lowest number of students taking the tests-5 percent. As in Oklahoma, many of the Iowa students tested were attempting to enter private colleges. Iowa students scored 515 on the verbal section and 578 in math. A spokeswoman for the state

Traylor makes final roster Keith Traylor, former University of Central Oklahoma linebacker, is playing for the Broncos again—the Denver Broncos. The 6-3, 260-pound All-American made the final 47-man roster of the Denver Broncos, the team announced this week. Traylor was drafted in the third round by the Denver Broncos and was the 61st pick overall last spring.

Department of Education said the department would have no immediate comment on the test results. The test scores had been embargoed for release Tuesday morning, but the embargo was broken. Nationwide, the verbal averages were the lowest since national records were kept in 1%9. Verbal scores hit a recent peak of 431 in 1985, but have slid steadily ever since. Both sections of the multiple choice exam taken by more than 1 million high school students are scored on a scale of 200-800, with a combined 1600 being the highest possible.

After serving three years on the student senate, Student Association Vice President David Slane has announced his resignation of that post. "Going to law school has been a lifelong dream of mine, and now that I have that opportunity, I'm afraid if I pass it up I won't get another chance," Slane said. Slane has been accepted at and will be attending Oklahoma City University Law School. Slane served the student senate as a senator his first two years, house speaker for a semester and finally as vice president until present. "I want everyone at UCO to know that I appreciated their support and participation in the student government process. I've had run-ins with administrators, campus police officials and students but there was nothing negative about my position here," Slane said. "I had gone as far in my major as I could, and law school is a once-ina-lifetime opportunity."

Education secretary considers Oklahoma's system progressive

Staff Writer

A number of classes were dismissed early Wednesday after a jumper line at the corner of Ayers and N. Roberts fell across two phases of a high—voltage power line and caused a loss of electricity in seven buildings on the University of Central Oklahoma campus. Classes held in the north and south Business Buildings and in the Communications Building and Annex were released early due to the darkness. East Hall, West Hall, the Central Cafeteria and Murdaugh Hall also lost electricity beginning at 9:30 a.m. Due to the power outage,The Vista relocated to the Macintosh computer lab in the Liberal Arts building until crews restored electric power late Wednesday afternoon. The loss of electric power may have done damage to some motors used to operate the buildings' air conditioning units, said David McClellan, UCO physical plant director. McClellan said although the university receives power from the city of Edmond, the only electric lines affected by the outage were on the campus. University physical plant workers and city crews restored electric power to the seven campus buildings by 5:30 p.m., Wednesday.

Among Slane's more noteworthy projects were organizing race relations meetings, several hours of meeting with state legislators, Gov. Walters and Lt. Gov. Mildren concerning tuition increases, and ticketing illegally parked campus police cars. Slane will be serving in the position of vice-president until Sept.9. There will be no temporary vice-president. The position will

be open until fall elections are held Sept. 23-27. In UCO's election process, the positions of president and vicepresident are the only offices voted on by the entire student body. Those who serve as student senators are elected from each college. To qualify for the position of vice-president, a student must be enrolled in at least 9 hours in an undergraduate program or 6 hours in a graduate program, and must hold at least a 2.5 grade point average, said Rebecca Zahn, election committee chairman. Joaquinn Stevens, the student senate activity director, and Speaker of the House Terry LaFranee have announced their intentions to run, Slane said. Slane said he appreciates the time he spent at UCO. "I feel very lucky that they chose me overwhelmingly two years in a row," said Slane. "In the time I've been there, I've sometimes received a lot of criticism," Slane said. "But in the end you realize there are very good people on UCO's campus." V

when they take action to improve education in their state. I see a lot in that bill that could move any state forward," Alexander said. Design teams appointed by the New American Schools Development Corporation will be assigned to develop schools that could operate more than six hours a day, have more than one teacher per class and teach a new curriculum. "Math that was taught in the 1950's is still being taught in today's classrooms," Alexander said. "That needs to be changed since we are a society that tradi-

tionally has been first in the world." Under the proposed plan, schools would also offer courses for adults who want to continue their education, Alexander said. "One of the things schools do poorly is educating the individual communities," he said. The national education goals will also include achieving a 90 percent high school graduation rate, becoming number one in the world in science and mathematics, and removing drugs and violence from schools, Alexander said.

Applications must be received no later than October 1, 1991.The deadline for OTAG funds is usually May 31, but, Desert Storm soldiers are being given 45 days after their return to Oklahoma to apply for the grant. Applicants must meet all the eli-

gibility requirements and those categorized as "high need" will receive priority consideration for OTAG funds. Only those applicants who were on duty in connection with Desert Storm will be given special consideration. The deadline extension is available this year only. "Modifying the OTAG application process is one way Oklahoma higher education can help ease the burden on soldiers and their families and make beginning or returning to college easier," said Chancellor Hans Brisch. The staff that works with the grant program discussed the dead-

line with the Regents who decided the deadline should be extended for a sense of equity.

Friends celebrate retiree's birthday By Penny Owen Staff Writer Not just anybody gets to float halfway across Oklahoma in a

stretch limosine to attend a party in her honor and have a garden, bench and plaque dedicated in her name. But then, Emma W. Plunkett isn't just anybody. Plunkett is a former University of Central Oklahoma faculty member who retired in 1966 after 38 years of service. She celebrated her 90th birthday among friends and former students at a UCO ceremony Aug. 7 applauding her contributions to UCO. "I don't think I've ever seen such an outpouring of love for someone after 25 years," said Emma's sister, Josephine Plunkett, who also attended the party. "Usually they only do that after someone is dead." Armed with a bachelor of science degree from George Peabody College in Nashville, Tenn., Plunkett seized an offer as health and physical education director at the then-named Central State Teachers College in 1928. In addition to her regular tasks,

Plunkett choreographed campus musicals, directed the Central State College Circus, taught Navy Aircraft and Ship Identification during World War II and sponsored numerous campus organizations. "She used to be a great pusher for cultural events on campus," Josephine said. "She even fixed dinner for celebrities she brought in after they performed." The Emma Plunkett Award was established in 1929 for outstanding women physical education majors. Many recipients of this award attended her birthday party. In 1986, a Sports Illustrated photographer spotted Plunkett at the Masters Tournament wearing a hat with tickets from prior golfing events pinned on it. After learning that she had been attending the tournament for more than 35 years, the magazine featured her in a human interest story. She now resides in Westminister Retirement Village in Ponca City. "Emma still gets letters from students," Josephine said. "At least twice a year — on Mother's Day and Christmas." V

49 new faculty members added to college staff By Kathy Karr Staff Writer

The University of Central Oklahoma has hired the largest amount of new, full-time faculty since the school's inception, according to Terry May, assistant vice president of academic affairs. There will be 49 new faces on UCO's full-time faculty as the fall semester begins, said Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president of academic affairs. The newcomers are all full-time members and fill positions left by resignations, retirements, deaths and the consolidation of adjunct positions. New members have been hired in the colleges of business administration, liberal arts, education and mathematics and science, Jacob said. "Our role becomes trying to determine what positions we can le-

gitimately fill, which positions we can afford to fill, and where the needs are the greatest," said Jacob. UCO advertised in print and radio to attract faculty for this year, and hiring began in January. "We have a multi-media approach to the recruitment process," said May. "We work very closely with the deans to try to ask of them what their needs are," Jacob said. The average age of the new members is 43, May said. Eighteen received their terminal degrees, the highest degree available in their academic area, from insititutions outside of Oklahoma, and 11 are coming to UCO from out of state, May said. "We get a higher quality of faculty every year," Jacob sad. UCO hopes to begin the hiring process for the 1992-93 school year this fall, May said. V

Debaters donate cash to scholarship fund By Marcia Benedict Student Writer

Two debate teams composed of four University of Central Oklahoma students donated a money award to the UCO Student Activity Scholarship Fund for future scholarship recipients, said Donna Peters, director development/ alumni relations. The students won $45 after cornpeting and placing third and fourth at a debate forum held in February at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. Josh Hoe, Wayne Harrell, Shawn Huffman and Tim Steffen decided to bring home the money award instead of a metal trophy, Peters said. "The university has so much in the way of medals and trophies, that these students asked for the money that would have gone toward buying the trophy and that the money be donated to the scholarship fund," she said. Doug Duke, UCO oral commur

nications instructor, said the debate team participates in 20 to 25 debate forums each year, and the Kansas City meet was the first to award money. "I haven't seen money given instead of trophies in the past," he said. The team members competed against students from more than 30 schools from throughout the United States. Duke said any student is eligible to receive the money which will be dispersed by the Alumni Scholarship Foundation. "The money won't necessarily go to a student on the debate team," Duke said. The debate team is composed primarily of students majoring in pre—law, political science and communications, he said. "It's an activity that goes across the board," Duke said. The first debate forum this year will take place on September 20 and 21 at Southwestern College in Kansas. V

Soviet republics scurry for independence By Larry Rogers

Staff Writer

The world is watching the oncesmothering blanket of the Communist party unravel as, one by one, Soviet republics declare their independence. "What you're seeing happening today in the Soviet Union, or what's actually been happening over the course of the last few years is that the republic government has sought to increase their authority," said Dr. Louis Furmanski, new faculty member in the political science department at the University of Central Oklahoma. At press time, the republics of Moldavia, Byelorussia, Latvia and Estonia have declared full independence. The Ukraine's independence is subject to a referendum Dec. 1. Georgia declared independence on April 9, 1991, and will be completed in stages, according to government officials. Lithuania declared independence in early 1990 but suspended the declaration pending talks with Moscow on its secession. Armenia intends to secede in accordance with the five-year process called for in the Soviet constitution. "It's like suddenly kindergarten has been released," said Carl Reherman, assistant professor of political science at UCO. "What do y‘ou do with people whose entire lives have been dominated by the Communist party that told them what time to get up and what time to go to bed?" What will happen next is anybody's guess, Reherman said, and President Bush's noncommital stand on financial aid to the newly-independent republics is understandable. "It's one thing to be independent, but it's another to be able to

feed your population," Reherman said. "Who's going to pay for this transition?" "Are we going to step in and help financially with great investment the Soviet Union to establish a free-market society?" Reherman asked. "Look at what happened after World War II, when we did it for Japan and Germany," Reherman said. "We built them into a power base that now threatens our own economic existence. Where would U.S. investment in the Soviet Union get us?" "The primary attitude is that this is a time for assessment, to take stock in where we are," White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said Sunday. "But no one wants to commit at this point." "Bush is making decisions," Reherman said. "I think it would be very naive of us to think he's just sitting there in the Oval Office watching CNN News." Bush's plan, as reported in USA Today, is to insist on more con-

crete economic reforms, changes in land ownership and private industy and the creation of a stock market before the U.S. is going to open its coffers. "They've made certain decisions and they want everyone (other world powers) to go with them, like in the Middle Fast," Reherman said. "The U.S. wants everyone in tandem, moving together. It's an enormous task to move seven different powers at the same time." Another question some may be asking is 'Is it the young against the old guard?' Reherman said he didn't think there is an age factor involved. "You have 19-20 year-old Communists who are willing to die to keep their party alive, but at the same time, you have 80-85 year-old people willing to die for democracy," Reherman said. "I don't think there is a 'young turk' movement that has exploded," Reherman said. "What you have are young people who

Union out of the quagmire they currently find themselves in," Furmanski said. According to USA Today, approximately 60 percent of the Soviet budget goes to the military. "They're spending all that money on tanks, but they can't put bread on their people's tables. Russians want consumer goods." Reherman said. "They want to go to the market and buy goods for their children, to buy televisions at a department store. They're tired of the old joke, 'Yes we have shoes today but they're all one color and one style and one size.'

Finally, what do the people of the Soviet Union want? Reherman asked. "People have said what they don't want, but they have yet to say what they do want," Reherman said. "I don't think they know what their options are." "They have to be able to affect meaningful change, exercize meaingful authority, convince the people that they can lead the Soviet

Soviet coup raises questions WASHINGTON (AP)—Americans could sit back last week and watch a coup unfold in the other superpower, confident that it couldn't happen here. Or could it? On this fundamental question— whether a handful of conspirators could seize the U.S. government and take over—historians are surprisingly uncertain and divided. Some point to 200 years of experience, in which power routinely changed hands in times tough and placid, as evidence that American fidelity to constitutional order is so great that no ideologically driven conspirator could ever find enough people in high places to go along. Others are not so sanguine. These are tranquil days in America, but there have been times when mobs roamed the streets and the durability of democracy was worried about. One national divisi xi was so great it took a civil war to put the country together again. Homegrown fascists had millions of followers during the Depression. During the Vietnam frenzy a president feared to go anywhere in public except to military bases, and crowds called him a murderer. Four presidents were killed and six other assassination attempts failed, but none of those events resulted from seize-the-government conspiracies. Such conspiracy is not in the American character, said Joan Hoff, a historian at Indiana University. "What we have that the Soviets have never developed is the insti-

tutionalized succession of power," she said, reflecting on the failed putsch in the Soviet Union. "We are totally imbued in it." Samuel R. Gammon III, executive director of the American Historical Association, said even during the Red Scare of the 1920s and the McCarthy era of the 1950s, the pendulum of public opinion always come around in time to knock down what looked like a threat to democratic order. "Even in the McCarthy hysteria, the backlash was finally there and ultimately destroyed him," Gammon said. If the White House had been occupied by someone indifferent to the Depression's suffering, if no Franklin Roosevelt came along "to create a sense that something was being done," a demagogue could have seized power in America, said historian Howard Zinn. Zinn, author of A Peoples History of the United States, is not so pesuaded that it could not happen here under the right circumstances. "I would like to think that the American people are so resistant, so imbued with democratic ideas that the country could not be taken over by some military or political clique," Zinn said, "but I don't think that's so. "I don't think it is improbable given the volatility of public opinion and the power of important people to con or use the media in the way the administration used the media during the Gulf War to move public opinion from opposition to 85 percent support of military action in a number of days."

Survey shows confusion

Arnita Jones, executive director of the Organization of American Historians in Bloominton, Ind., said events during the last days of the Watergate crisis presuaded her that "the rule of law and devotion to the Constitution" are too strong to permit the usurpation of a presidency. "We realized we had a president who really wasn't in those last days able to function, and a number of people—including me— wondered who was making the key decisions," she said of Richard Nixon.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP)—Many people are confused about which common foods contain wheat, according to a nationwide survey, and the Wheat Foods Council said Monday it wants to do something about it. The polling firm SRI-Gallup asked 1,000 people by telephone in June about several items in the grocery store and whether they thought they were made form wheat, Wheat Foods Council Chair Carolyn Logue said.

Forty-eight percent said oatmeal was a wheat food and 49 percent thought the oat cereal Cheerios was made from wheat, she said. The survey raised some opportunities she said. I think we need to be ready to be basic in our efforts and tell them what is wheat," she said. Logue gives survey respondents the benefit of the doubt. Many of them are three to four generations removed from any kind of farm background, Logue said.

Terminator 2 surpasses expectations By Sam Powell AP Wire Editor

After being billed as the most expensive movie ever made Terminator 2: Judgement Day has surpassed even its creator's expectations. In 1984 writer/director James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger pooled their talents and brought to life one of the greatest science-fiction-cyborg movies of all time, The Terminator. In the original Terminator a killer cyborg was sent back through time to eliminate Sarah Connor, played by Linda Hamilton. According to the cyborg's history, Hamilton was to give birth to a son who would lead the human race in a war against the machines. By using her strength and wit Hamilton is able to defeat the cyborg and a sequel is born. Terminator 2 opens with Hamilton in a mental institution and the world on the path to self distraction, a scenerio many people can identify with. The difference in the original Terminatior and the sequel is in T2 Schwarzenegger returns as a good guy, a kinder gentler terminatior. He does not kill anyone on screen, a distant departure from the original.

"Living With The Law" is the shining new debut from Chris Whitley, one of the more exciting performers to appear on the music scene in a long time. In this awful age of dance music and mindless gooey pop songs, Whitley is a definite breath of fresh air. He brings to music a more realistic lyric style, and can still make everyday images that everyone encounters strangely poetic. Whitley plays an open-tuned National acoustic guitar on most of the tunes. Don't expect any rockers; this album has a rustic sound, but still manages some sophisticated song crafting. The title track, which opens side one, tells the story of a young man from the country encountering the city for the first time. The lyrics are cynical, and at some points vicious, but the music itself and Whitley's voice sound like a slow, southern spiritual hymn.

How's Your News IQ? By Joan Brunskill AP Writer How much do you remember about the stories that have been in the news recently? If you score fewer than five correct answers, you have been spending too much time on the crossword puzzle. If you get eight or more right, you might consider desktop publishing. All correct? You would make Joe Pulitzer proud. • 1. Soviet President Gorbachev took back control after a shortlived coup foundered, with spirited help from Boris Yeltsin-who is: (a) Soviet prime minister; (b) president of the Russian republic; (c) president of the Politburo.

Schwarzenegger helps Hamilton escape from and ultimately defeat a new high text cyborg, once again making the world a safe place to live. It is easy to see why this film cost over $100 million. The director takes us on the mother of all chase scenes. They distroy everything from a Tonka toy to a top-ofthe-line 18 wheeler. In the last few minutes T2 gets corny when Schwarzenegger makes a vain attempt to show emotion.

The idea to make a sequel was a joint effort, Cameron said. "Schwarzenegger was always a very strong force in trying to get the sequel made," Cameron said. Schwarzenegger said the idea came to him soon after completing the first Terminator. "Everything about the first `Terminator' lent itself to a sequel," Schwarzennegger said. T2 provides a real fix for the action adventure addict. It is pure entertainment. Hasta la vista baybee. V

Then comes on of the highlights of the album "Big Sky Country." It has a sweeping sound, and the narrative is hopeful. Whitley and producer Malcolm Burn incorporate some interesting harmony not the chorus that takes the song on an upward spiral.

Besides Whitley's expressive guitar playing, he is a remarkable

vocalist. His singing never sounds contrived or strained. Whitley bided his time and waited for his big break in music to come to him, and he's been playing these songs for a long time. He sounds corn-

fortable when he sings, as if he's

talking to old friends. The general sound and feel of this record is very familiar, as if it were an old album from many years ago. Hearing this album brings images of slow moving rivers and dirt roads. Whitley sings with old familiarity of rusted engine blocks, roadhouses and oldfashioned love stories. Whitley is a native Texan and spent a lot of

Lone Star Conference outlook 1. Angelo State "We're going to throw the ball," said 10-year veteran head coach Jerry Vandergriff of his Ram football team for the 1991 season. ASU certainly has the weapons to do just that. QB Danny Keeton platooned with Greg Stephens to complete, 110 of 243 passes for 1,734 yards and 17 TDs last year, and their top targets return. Speedy receivers Darron Johnson and Kenneth Washington are back for what may be a record-breaking season. Six veteran starters return to solidify the defensive front. 2. East Texas State The defending LSC champions return 17 starters, including 14 all-conference selections. The offense is anchored by QB Bobby Bounds, who earned LSC Offensive Back of the honors last season after compiling 1,905 passing yards and 17 TDs. He also rushed for 344 yards and six scores. Defense, especially the line, may be a question mark for sixth-year head coach Eddie Vowell. He disagrees. "We have a lot of guys chomping at the bit to earn a starting spotn the defensive line...The secondary is as deep as I can ever remember it." 3. Texas A&I Only nine starters return for coach Ron Harms and the tradition-rich Javelinas, but a big recruiting year, which brought several transfers to Kingsville, called for LSC pollsters to rank A&I first in the league. With the exception of QB, the offensive backfield could be one of the best in the country. Former University of Oklahoma RB Ike Lewis joins the sophomore tailback tandom of Rayford Bloom and Kevin Randle, who combined for 943 yards rushing and nine TDs. 4. Central Oklahoma ?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;That's the best way to describe the unpredictable Bronchos. After finishing 13-34-2 over the past five seasons, 15-year veteran coach Gary Howard is still scratching his head wondering what happended to the once proud gridiron tradition maintained in NAIA. With 18 starters and 43 of 54 lettermen returning (most in the LSC), 1991 could be as sweet as honey for the Howard and the Bronchos. UCO has a couple of fine QBs battling for the starting spot. Senior Ben Morrison knows the system and likely will start, but West Texas State transfer Mark Reiland, who threw for 1,009 yards and five TDs last year, will push him all season. An experienced line on both sides of the ball and outstanding linebackers and defensive backs give the Bronchos what may again be a strong unit. 5. Cameron The Aggies have the services of 14 returning starters for the 1991 season, but the defensive line must be overhauled if they are to avoid the LSC cellar. A big and strong offensive line and fine defensive backfield should help the Aggies to salvage a few victories. 6. Eastern New Mexico The Greyhounds finished second (at 5-2) last year in the rough LSC race, but they have a lot of rebuilding to do in order to repeat. Only 11 starters are back, and the team must replace All-LSC performers QB Aaron Keesee and RB Andre Tucker. Wideouts Mario Smalls and Carlton Liggons, who has 4.3/40 speed, are bright spots in what could be a potent passing attack if expected starter Todd Lacey can get them the ball. The Hounds likely will reduced to the role of 'spoiler' in the otherwise tight LSC race. 7. Abilene Christian Nearly everyone expects the Wildcats to finish last in 1991, except first-year ACU coach Ronnie Peacock, former defensive coordinator at Arkansas Tech. "People may overlook us," he said. "I want to be better than what other people expect us to be." With only two seniors back on a very young team, the Aggies will be hard pressed to do anything but live up to their pre-season billing.

Sports Editor

Despite losing several stars, including quarterback Chris Simdorn, winner of the Harlon Hill Award (Heisman eqivalent), the Bison are the favorites to repeat their 14-0 season of a year ago. No matter, head coach Rocky Hager (42-7-1 in four years) said his team will be just as solid in 1991. "It's our goal every year to win the national championship," he told the Florence (Ala.) Times

Daily, site of the 1991 championship contest.

"We lost a lot of quality players," Hager said, "but then again the cupboard is not exactly completely bare either." What the Bison do have this season is the nucleus of a defense which did not allow a rushing touchdown in its final 37 quarters (nearly ten games). Pre-season All-America linebacker Todd Wash, who recorded six sacks in the 51-11 Division II title game victory against Indiana (Pa.) last year, anchors

that defensive unit.

That same Indiana University team is most likely

the other top contenders. The Lakers of GVSU return 24 players who started at least one game a year ago for a team that went 10-1. NAU's Lions return 16 starters, including nine on defense, from a team that finished 8-3 a year ago. North Alabama had won only eight games in the previous two years prior to last season. Another LSC power, Texas A&I, cannot go unmentioned as a bona fide candidate in the national title hunt. The Javelinas are favored in a close-knit league race that features three top twenty teams (also East Texas State and Angelo State). A&I has one of the top rushing corps in the country, featuring former University of Oklahoma running back Ike Lewis, Charles Thompson, Rayford Bloom and Kevin Randle.

The foursome will run behind big tackle Brian Nielson (6-3, 309). UC Davis and Northern Colorado are a couple of more legitimate contenders.

UCO cage star drafted by CBA

Brown bound for Tulsa Zone By Bill Kramer

"Magic" Marlon Brown, former University of Central Oklahoma basketball star, could be playing professionally next year after being selected in the Continental Basketball Association draft. Brown, a 6-9, 233-pound forward from Wichita (Northwest) Kan., was taken in the fifth round by the Tulsa Zone (formerly the Fast Breakers), winners of the 1989 CBA Championship. During a two-year stint with the run-and-gun Bronchos, Brown earned second-team All-Lone Star

Conference honors as a junior in 1989-90 and first-team All-LSC recognition a year ago, helping lead UCO to a school-record 25-5 mark and share of the league championship. Brown averaged 14.5 points and a league-best 9.4 rebounds a game last year. fie also shot 50 percent from the field and 47 percent from 3-point range. First-year Zone head coach Steve Bontrager said Brown could make a nice addition to his team. "Marlon Brown is 6-9 and can run and jump," Bontrager said. "He's not a polished player, but I saw him play in the Los Angeles Summer Pro League, and he could turn into something.

"He wants to play in the CBA, and I know he will come in." Brown was one of eight players chosen by the Zone and was the 83rd overall choice in the eightround, 137-player draft. V

Court is back in session Spikers look to lay claim to LSC crown

By Bill Kramer

Sports Editor Last year the University of Central Oklahoma volleyball team won a school-record 25 matches, but head coach Mark Herrin said his team is even better this year. Entering his second year at the helm of the fledgling Lady Bronchos, Herrin said his team will be tough to beat, but so will the formidable schedule on tap this season. "There's no doubt we'll be better, but I don't know if we'll win as many matches as we did last year," he said. "Our schedule is a lot tougher and will really challenge us. "For us to get the program to the level that we want it, we need to play the type of competition we're going to play this season outside of the conference." Herrin is speaking of the usual rugged LSC schedule as well as a four-day stint in Alaska in which the Lady Bronchos take on top 20 foes AlaskaAnchorage and Alaska-Fairbanks, in addition to three top-notch tournaments. Five starters return to the Lady Bronchos, including two-time All-LSC honorable mention, outside hitter Heather Devine. The 5-10 senior from Edmond owns seven school records. She led the team last year in aces (60) and digs (354) and was second m kills (439) and attacks (1,200). Devine While averaging 12.2 kills a game last year, Devine recorded at least 10 kills in 22 matches and had a career-high 23 in the final season match against Abilene Christian. Also back in the starting line-up is Azle, Texas, junior outside hitter Amy Parten, who led the team in kills (507) and attacks (1,300). She also earned second-team AllLSC recognition. Parten had 15 or more kills in 16 matches a year ago. She also recorded at least 20 kills eight times Parten

and averaged a school-record 14.5 kills a match, following a stellar freshman season in which she led the team in kills (410) and attacks (1,190). Three more returning headliners are middle blockers Heather Mazeitis and Kristin Vincent and outside hitter Aimee Russell. Mazeitis, a 5-10 senior out of Leavenworth, Kan., was second on the team in solo blocks (34) and assisted blocks (66) a year ago. She recorded a school-record 10 solo blocks against Fasters New Mexico last year and added 162 kills and 300 digs for the Lady Bronchos. Vincent, a 6-0 sophomore from Arlington, Texas, made a big impact last year as a true freshman, leading the team in solo (49) and assisted (71) blocks. She also rated seventh in the league with 1.2 blocks a game. Russell contributed with veteran leadership last year, and she returns for her final campaign after compiling 171 kills and 79 blocks a year ago. She also had 10 kills in the final six matches for UCO. The 6-1 Russell would qualify for the tallest team member if not for 6-3 transfer Shannon Hallahan. A Fremont, Cal., native, Hallahan brings her size and talent to UCO after only a year at the University of Oklahoma. She was a three-year volleyball starter at Mission San Jose High School, earning All-League recognition and team MVP honors as a prep senior. Her sister Colleen also joins the Lady Bronchos following a four-year prep volleyball stint, which earned the 6-0 freshman All-District honors. She joins Owings Mills, Md., junior outside hitter Denise Eley in providing much needed depth. UCO has two quality freshman setters who will vie for a starting spot, and both are from tradition-rich Norman High School. Carrie Peters joins the Lady Bronchos following a phenominal senior season after leading the Lady Tigers to a 50-0 season and the Class 5A state championship. She is joined by former prep teammate Lone Dover, who attended OU last year but did not play volleyball. The Lady Bronchos have been picked fifth in the pre-season poll. The conference favorite is Angelo State. V

Oklahoma City leaders select new chief of police from Dallas OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—After years of chiefs who came up through the ranks, Oklahoma City on Saturday picked a 27-year veteran Texas lawman to head its police force. Assistant Dallas Police Chief Sam Gonzales, 50, will start work Oct. 14, City Manager Don Brown said. Leaders of Oklahoma City's Fraternal Order of Police could not immediately be reached for comment. FOP members reportedly have expressed displeasure at the outside appointment. "I think I would be very naive to think that there are not a lot of police officers who might feel some resentment that somebody from within was not picked," Gonzales told reporters. "I don't think it's something that I could not overcome," he said.

Father claims retribution just ALVA (AP)—Woods County authorities have charged an Illinois man who allegedly loaded up all his sons possessions and headed back to Illinois with them. Donald Eugene Alcobella, 57, of Grafton, Ill., told Woods County authorities Donald Eugene Alcobella Jr. of Alva had done the same thing to him in Illinois, selling much of his father's property. "He claimed he seized his kid's property to repay him for what he'd done," Sheriff Ted Jones said.

Milwaukee officer suspended for leaving boy with alleged killer MILWAKEE (AP)—A police officer suspended for returning a 14-year-old Laotian boy to alleged mutilation-killer Jeffrey L. Dahmer said he's agonized over how he might have preventd the boy's death. "God is my witness, I just didn't dump a little boy in the hands of a murderer. That's not what happened," Joseph T. Gabrish told the Milwaukee Journal. On May 27, neighbors reported seeing a naked boy run from Dahmer's apartment building. Gabrish and two fellow officers accepted Damer's explanation the youth was his adult homosexual lover and that he was drunk. Gabrish, 28, a patrolman for seven years, said he and the other officers believed there was a caring relationship between Dahmer and the boy and saw no reason to intervene.

BOSTON (AP)—While damage expets try to put the official tab on Hurricane Bob, New Englanders are starting to feel the financial impact, from lost customers at Cape Cod eateries to overtime bills paid by utilities. At first glance, the hurricane seemed relatively timid as it swept through New England a week ago. But the toll in Massachuens alone has been pegged at nearly $1 billion including in cost of cleaning up the mess. The most expensive hurricane on record, in terms of damage to insured property, was Hugo, which devastated $4.2 billion worth of propety in the Caribbean and southeasten United States in September 1989.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—The 1982 cancellation of the Black Fox nuclear power plant venture cost Public Service Co. of Oklahoma customers $161 million over a seven-year period, an Oklahoma Corporation Commission auditor says. Tulsa-based PSO and its Black Fox partners canceled the venture when it was only 2 percent completed, citing rising costs. When PSO bailed out its expenses were well above $230 million. The Corporation Commission ordered a cost recovery rider added to PSO bills in 1982. That generated $161 million from PSO customes through August 1989, auditor Edwin Farrar said last week.

EDMOND (AP)--An 18-month-old was attacked and killed by the family's pet dog Thursday, Edmond police said. Capt. Ron Cavin, police spokesman, said the toddler and a 68-year-old babysitter were in the back yard "when the family's chow, unprovoked, grabbed the baby by the head and neck and took off with it." The babysitter battled the animal until it let go, but the child died Cavin said. "It was the family pet," Cavin said. "Many other times the dog and the baby had played together.

Continuing such excellence will be the true challenge in determining UCO's position within the 21st century.

Welcome Students The beginning of a new academic year always promises to be an exciting time for everyone associated with the university. We, on the campus of the University of Central Oklahoma, stand on the threshold of even greater opportunities for the 1991-92 year. Having experienced a successful name change from Central State University, we enter our sec-

ond century with a renewed dedication toward maintaining those goals set forth by our pioneering founders. Certainly, we can point with pride to the many and varied

Budget phone service available answer when their phone is busy, and our phone mail can," he said.

By Nana Khan Student Writers

The telephone services department at the University of Central Oklahoma is offering a very economical, direct-dialing long distance service, said Harold Elston, campus telecommunications manager. "The university long distance service, accessed from your dorm room telephone, is priced 10 percent less than the same call would cost if placed from a residential line using Southwestern Bell or AT & T," said Elston. Students can also get call waiting, phone mail and other services at a reduced cost, said Elston. "Not very many students know about this. Our phone mail service costs less than most other phone mailboxes. Students can have their own recorders, but it won't

"When the students rent these services they pay the housing department," Elston said. "There is no income to the telephone department from any of these services." Many students are using other long distance services such as collect or credit card calls, which charge more per call and attach an 80 cent surcharge to every call made, he said. "The telephone department is always working to try to improve the capability of our phone sys-

tem, but we are limited in the 15 or 16-year-old technology and design of this system. Only by changing its software can we increase its capabilities," Elston said. "A year ago we put new software in all of our systems," he said. "We are trying to be sure we have the best quality of transmission services." V

learning within the nation. Concluding my tenure will not be an easy task, for it is always difficult to bid farewell to friends and family. My only wish is for UCO to continue building and to share its success with the Edmond community and the state of Oklahoma. Having been founded in 1890 by the Oklahoma Territorial Legislature as a Normal School dedicated to the preparation of teachers for the new territory, we have grown from our modest beginnings while maintaining that unique aura of the personable institu-

tion. Our ever-increasing enrollment reflects this attribute plus the educational opportunities of our programs. To the newly-admitted student, the University of Central Oklahoma welcomes you and hopes to assist yOu in whatever field of study you choose. To the continuing student, it is of course, a great pleasure to serve you again. My door is always open.

Campus crime slips, Setting goals gets results police reports show By Penny Owen Staff Writer

By Barbara Dewailley

Staff Writer

The heat index may be up, but crime rates at the University of Central Oklahoma are down, said campus police Sgt. Doris Dunn. "I think this decrease in crime is two-fold. We have increased our black and white units on the streets, so we have more surveillance. Also, students are more cautious because of increased community awareness," Dunn said. Reports show 296 crimes were reported in 1990, three less than in 1989. She said another crime deterrent could be Operation I.D. which suggests engraving a social security number on stereos, computers and other things of value a thief might target. For information on Operation I.D. call campus police. "The best advice I can give to students on campus is don't give a thief the opportunity in the first

place. If you see a crime occur or have a crime committed against you call campus police at ext. 2345 immediately," she said. In the case of an automobile accident, she said the cars should not be moved from the scene. "If the cars have been moved there is not much we can do about that type of investigation," Dunn said. Last spring some campus dorms were plagued with a rash of thefts. Officials decided to begin a lockdown policy at East Hall where all outer doors would be locked at midnight. Richard Belotti, East Hall assistant head resident, said the lockdown went into effect June 10 and has had very good results. The policy will continue in the fall, he said. Dunn said no campus homicides or rapes were reported in 1990. One robbery was reported. Burglaries, larcenies and assaults were the most reported crimes. She said 54 arrests were made. V

Now that you have the monumental decisions of picking a college, choosing which classes to take and running the enrollment obstacle course behind you, take a deep breath, you deserve it. But only one, because you have a lot of work ahead of you. Never mind your desire to win in the political arena, we first need to consider the more pressing matter of how to get you educated and disciplined. We need to study. Before we attack what you study, let's define why you study. Presumably, a long-term goal has brought you to college. Of all the variables in reaching that goal, studying is the one stepping stone you cannot avoid. Goal setting is an excellent way to get a job done, be it getting out of bed, writing the next Gettysburg address or earning a degree, and it can be done with medium goals set one semester at a time. Before anything, decide on what you want

Place name and social security number in textbooks. Do not leave purses, wallets or books unattended. Lock your vehicle. Do not leave valuables in plain view sight in vehicle. Keep your residence locked at all times.

to achieve this semester, both academically and personally. Be realistic, but challenge yourself. Think about these examples: • maintain a 3.0 GPA this semester. • find someone to run with. • save $200. • learn to play tennis. • get acquainted with a favorite professor. • lose five pounds. • visit a business which pertains to your major. • read a newspaper at least twice a week. Once the goals are in place, decide on a self-induced reward for accomplishing them. This is your personal gift, so make it something unusual that you really want, but be sure it's within reach of your budget and time. Perhaps you can use the $200 you save to buy a leather coat, or maybe you want a get-away weekend. Use this not-so-far-away treat as bait, and think about it when you're under the gun with mid-terms, or when you're tempted to go to a party

instead of studying for tomorrow's test. Now, invest in a daily planner to organize your time. Immediately block out class time and study time. A good rule of thumb for study time is three hours per week for each one credit hour of class. It's wise to overestimate until you have a feel for the semester's pace. Be specific with your study time by pencilling in what course to study which day and, if possible, what in particular you'll be studying. For instance, if your history syllabus says you'll cover eight chapters in four weeks, pencil in that you'll read two chapters each week. Remember, time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. Students with a full schedule who work might try the 20-20-20 plan, that is 20 hours for work, 20 hours for class and 20 hours (minimum) for study. This 60-hour week still allows time for sleep, family, friends and recreation, but covers the priorities. V

Hot spots found in job climate By Penny Owen Staff Writer

Short of having a crystal ball, predicting success in any career is at best an educated guess. However, knowing today's market can provide hints to tomorrow's prospects. Topping the list of flourishing career choices is the health care industry, namely nursing and pharmaceuticals, said Director of Placement W. Kent Todd. "The health industry is very vivacious and growing today," Todd said. "Due to the fact that society is getting much older, we're seeing more hospital beds being occupied." Demand in the accounting field has also steadily risen over the past five years, Todd said.

Good placement opportunities exist for computer science and environmental protection majors, he said. "Be real careful with any choice in the computer science area," said Peggy Foster, counseling and testing director. "Most advanced computers are now actually able to program themselves." Actuarial science is an emerging field, which involves compiling and analyzing statistical and mathematical data for insurance companies. "I know a couple of people who have graduated with that particular degree and have gotten jobs immediately," Todd said. Almost any degree can apply to a sales position, Todd said. Today's hot spots for career opportunities include Dallas, At-

lanta, Orlando, Chicago, Houston, Washington D.C. and the West Coast, Todd said. Regions on the downslide are those which service mainly agriculture and the petroleum industry, such as Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma, he said. Also lacking growth are New Mexico, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and the East Coast. The social aspects and total college lifestyle a student gains is as beneficial in the marketplace as studying and test scores, Todd said. "College is a time when you should measure yourself in areas other than just striving for a 3.5." "The best career of all is to plug leisure activities into a career," said Foster. "That would be the ultimate." V

Job choices become complex By Penny Owen Staff Writer

Somewhere along the path from childhood to college, the simplicity of stating "I want to be a rock star" gives way to making career decisions based on society's complex demands. More than ever, universities are rising to the challenge of matching student with career. Although 90 percent of the University of Central Oklahoma's freshman have declared a major, statistics show that three out of four of those students will change majors before graduating. Having sophisticated computer programs and an army of career advisors available gives today's students an edge in making informed career decisions. "Everybody needs to put a lot of significance into career counseling," said Counseling and Testing Director Peggy Foster. "Right

now, because the cost of education is skyrocketing, we want to make a right choice the first time." UCO's Educational Information Center(EIC) in Evans Hall can help students make the right career choice. First on the EIC agenda is a daylong Career Fair set for Wednesday in Evans Hall. Representatives from several fields will be on hand to discuss their specialized niches. All students are welcome. For individual career searches, Foster recommends starting with the DISCOVER program. This computerized guide, created by the American College Test Co. (ACT), offers career possibilities based on questions answered about the inquirer's interests and values. DISCOVER then supplies detailed summaries, salary ranges, projected demand for the decade and pros and cons of the choice. Foster said the search should take about two hours.

Also found at the EIC is the "Strong Interest Inventory," which evaluates a student's interests and is then interpreted by the EIC staff. Unlike other EIC services, provided at no cost, this test costs $10. "The worse thing one can do is be influenced by parental choices, then try to live up to what the parents want them to be instead of choosing a career of their own," Foster said. Director of Placement W. Kent Todd, said deciding a major by the beginning of the junior year is soon enough. "I think it just takes time," he said. "Time is the main factor in telling you what you want to do or be." V

Upgrade causing minor difficulties NCAA II still a challenge By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

Since upgrading from NAIA to NCAA II in 1989, University of Central Oklahoma athletics have, for the most part, well handled a difficult transitionary period. While some programs suffer with the higher classified competition, others are already at the top of national competition. Head coach David James and the UCO wrestlers have not skipped a beat, often regarded to have one of the top programs in the nation. The Bronchos have won eight NAIA championships since 1979 and kept pace with runner-up finishes the last two years in NCAA They've also garnered 48 All-Americans in that span, including 28 multiple honorees. Men's basketball is also earning national attention in NCAA II. Jim Seward's Bronchos averaged nearly 100 points a game and won a school-record 25 games last season, finishing atop the Lone Star Conference with co-champ West Texas State. The women's volleyball team, under first-year coach Mark Herrin, also set a school record for wins with 25 and the men's cross country team, under veteran head coach Paul Parent,'made waves with another LSC title and a south central regional championship. The men's tennis team was ranked 16th in the nation for much of the 1990 season. Other programs have yet to gain national prominence in the higher classification. Among those is the football team, who has not endured a winning season since 1985. They have since gone 13-24-2. Nevertheless, the Bronchos have a 60 percent winning percentage in 85 years of competition since 1902. Similarly, the UCO softball program has not returned to the powerhouse status of the early 80s under head coach Gerry Pinkston. The Lady Bronchos were 245-155 during the 1980s in NAIA. The Broncho baseball team begins a new era this season under firstyear head coach and UCO alumnus Wendell Simmons, who replaces 22-year mainstay Bobby Hunt. Thus, UCO strives in 1991 to move past transition into establishing tradition in 14 men's and women's sports. V

UCO Athletics begin 88th year in existence By Bill Kramer Sports Editor

For the the 88th time since September of 1903, the University of Central Oklahoma enters athletic competition this fall. Although a baseball team was believed to be organized as early as 1896 and a football team was organized to play a game against Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State) in 1902, it was not until 1903 that President Frederick Umholtz asked Professor Francis Oakes to organize an athletic department for the school. The Vista, in 1903, reported a new enthusiasm for athletics and predicted a "college rivalry that will result in a fine local spirit and a pleasant acquaintance with neighboring schools." A men's basketball team was organized earlier in 1899, and a women's basketball team soon followed in 1903, recording its first victory November 21, a 13-0 win against Oklahoma City, with the ladies dressed in braids, bonnets and bloomers. In 1991-92, UCO begins its fourth year as an official member of the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) Division II and the Lone Star Conference, following a long stint as a member of the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics). UCO has varsity competition for eight men's sports and six women's events. The men compete in football, basketball, wrestling, baseball, golf, tennis, track and field (indoors and outdoors) and cross country. Varsity women's sports include volleyball, basketball, track and field (indoors and outdoors), cross country, softball and tennis. V

Stadium tradition 27 years rich ginning a new era of success. The

By Bill Kramer

Bronchos have won 68 percent of their games in the facility with a record of 84-39-5. UCO has been .500 or better 21 times in 26 years at Wantland Stadium and has been unbeaten five times. Recent years have not been pleasant, however, for the Bronchos at home or on the road. UCO has endured five straight losing seasons, dating back to 1985 when the Bronchos were 7-2-1 and NAIA quarterfinalists. Nevertheless, UCO football has enjoyed a proud football tradition, going 467-254-46 in 85 years.

Sports Editor Wantland Stadium has been a successful home for the University of Central Oklahoma football team, which begins its 27th year in the facility this fall. The 10,000-seat stadium is named after 19-year football coach and athletic director C.W. Wantland, who compiled a 104-45-18 record from 1912-1930 to rank him as the winningest coach in UCO history. Although completed before the 1964 season, unforeseen difficulties caused the inaugural season opener in the new facility to be delayed until 1965. UCO smashed the College of the Ozarks 31-0 in that opener, be-

In 1991, UCO faces a difficult task to return to gridiron dominance, but a proud history cannot be removed. V

UCO introduces new scholarship By Tina Northcutt Student Writer

Students demonstrating talent and outstanding achievement in leadership, organization and communication skills may apply this fall for a new scholarship at the University of Central Oklahoma. "The UCO Campus Leader Scholarship program has been established in order to recognize current UCO student leaders," said Susan Thompson, student activities director. The scholarship is similar to the President's Leadership Scholarship awarded to graduating high school seniors. "Some of these campus leaders may not have known about the President's Leadership Scholarship or may have applied, but did

not receive it," Thompson said. "We would like to award and recognize these leaders." The scholarship is for full tuition up to two semesters, approximately $1400. To be eligible, applicants must have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or above, have completed at least 20 credit hours and be an Oklahoma resident. To retain the scholarship the following fall, recipients must remain active in campus clubs and organizations, earn a 3.0 GPA, be enrolled in a minimum of 12 credit hours each semester and participate in all required President's Leadership Council activities. Applications are available at the dean's office or the Student Activities Office. Applications are due Nov. 1. V

Library begins program to aid visually impaired By Irfana Khan

Student Writer

The periodicals department of the Max Chambers Library at the University of Central Oklahoma is introducing a computer assistance program for visually impaired students, said Thomas Thorisch, instruction/reference librarian. "The library has different cornputer networks for student guidance, and in my opinion this one will be a big help for the visually handicapped," Thorisch said. Handicapped people will be able to use the on-line catalog by talking to the computers, he said. The computer assistance program is voice activated to assist the visually impaired in finding library materials, Thorisch said. Large print copies will also be available, he said. The progam will be implemented on the 4th floor of the library. V

FOOD AND ENTERTAINMENT

UCO hosts art exhibit tists are asked to experiment and try something they've never done before to fuse elements of the new photographic and the old traditional fine arts media. Sometimes the results are a big surprise, even to the artists themselves." This exhibit is a discovery for the artist as well as the audience, said Bill Wallo, museum director and co-curator.

By Corina Ormsbee Copy Editor

The University of Central Oklahoma Museum of Art will begin displaying its fifth annual edition of "The Painted Photograph V: The Marriage of Making and Taking" on August 26.

The exhibit blends the imagery from the arts of "making," as in painting and sculpture, with "taking," as in photography and collage, said John Pickard, cocurator. "This is always a lively show," Pickard said. "In many cases ar-

"Not only are there more artists every year, most of the artists have no fixed idea what size or shape their work will take at the time they are invited," said Wallo. As a result, he said there is an atmosphere of stimulation that makes this show an annual favorite. Everyone can see for themselves that there is more than one way to skin a cat. An opening reception will be held 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday Sept. 1. The exhibit will be displayed through Sept. 27. For additional information contact the UCO Museum of Art at 341-2980 Ext. 5931.

Diversions come easy By Kathy Karr

Staff Writer

There is relief for students who fear brain implosion from the mounds of schoolwork which may be dumped on them this fall. The University of Central Oklahoma and the Edmond community will offer a variety of entertainment to those who like to let their hair down after a hard bout with the books. To start off the school year, UCO's student senate is sponsoring a Back To School Week, and a repertory theater company from Dallas is booked to perform at 8 p.m. Sept. 4 in the University Center Ballroom. Sept. 5, comedian Scott Jones will be sponsoring a Generic Party at 8 p.m. in the University Center Ballroom. Students will have the opportunity to learn how to get involved in campus activities at UCO's organizational fair. The fair begins at 11 a.m., and refreshments will be served.

"I'm really excited about Back to School Week," said Joaquinn Stevens, student senate activities director. The student senate will also be offering coffee-house style and dinner theater entertainment on campus throughout the year. Comedians and bands will perform, and UCO and local talent will open for the performers. "It will be the most we've ever done in one semester," Stevens said. For those who enjoy outdoor activities Edmond has several area parks. Fink Park, just across from UCO on Second Street, has grills, a playground and pavilion facilities, or students can check out Hafer Park at 900 South Bryant. The park boasts an amphitheater and exercise trails. Arcadia Lake, east of Edmond on Highway 66, has several parks.

Central State Park at Highway 66 and Douglas is open 24 hours. Arcadia's parks offer lake visitors boat ramps, picnic pavilions, RV and tent campsites, boat parking, a beach and baseball field. Edmond also offers tennis courts, golf courses, bowling and a go-cart track. The local YMCA offers racquetball and pool facilities. For theater enthusiasts, Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park will present "Richard III" Aug. 15-Sept. 8. Keep an eye out for productions by the Edmond Community Theatre and of course UCO's music and theater productions. For nightlife, Edmond offers movie theaters, clubs and restaurants. From trendy, pricey eateries to economical fast food joints, Edmond has it all. V

RELIGIOUS OPPORTUNITIES

BSU offers something for all By Kathy Karr Staff Writer The Baptist Student Union on the University of Central Oklahoma campus is offering a full schedule of events for students this fall. Located at 400 E. Main, the

BSU will be hosting a Howdy Party to welcome students back to campus, said Janay Moody, BSU associate director. The party will be at 7 p.m. August 29. "That's for everybody on campus. It's just an opportunity to welcome everyone," Moody said. The BSU offers several weekly gatherings for students to get

together for fellowship, Moody said. Students meet at 12:35 p.m. every school day for an informal Noonday worship service, Moody said. The Manna service takes place every Wednesday before and after the Noonday service from 12 p.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 1 p.m. to 1:15 p.m. A meal is served to students for $1. The BSU offers recreational facilities, such as foosball, pingpong, pool, Nintendo video games and television. The building has a library area where students can check out books and study. The building generally opens at 7:30 a.m. and closes at 10 p.m. The BSU has two performance groups, Fellowship Lets Us Serve Him (FLUSH) and Promise. The groups are open and anyone who wants to join can do so, said Moody. Students can attend Bible studies, care groups, seminars and missions. BSU groups also meet and attend UCO football and volleyball games. The Breakfast Club meets at 7 a.m. Tuesday at the BSU for prayer, fellowship and breakfast. The BSU welcomes everyone on campus. "Basically, we're for everybody on campus," Moody said. "You don't have to be a Baptist. You don't have to be a Christian. You just have to walk in the door." For more information and special events sponsored by the BSU, call 341-1232. V
