Education reforms enacted
Greed rampant after Andrew
By Tami Watson Staff Writer
HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — Selfless giving and sharing are rampant in the wake of Hurricane Andrew. So are profiteering and greed. As people whose lives were upended by the storm lined up for food, water and other essentials, many told tales of $20 bags of ice, inflated lumber prices and the like. "It's terrible," said Marie Martinez, who paid $10 for five gallons of water. "We paid it. We're desperate." Gov. Lawton Chiles signed an order declaring Anyone charging "exorbitant or excessive prices" for postAndrew necessities faced fines of up to $10,000 per violation under Florida's law against unfair trade practices.
For most University of Central Oklahoma students, financial aid is just one huge headache. However, some of these problems may soon be alleviated following the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act, said Sheila Fugett, financial aid director at UCO. The reauthorization or "Higher Education Amendments of 1992" was signed by President George Bush this summer and will remain in effect for the next five years. The provisions of the act are largely geared toward the lowerincome students who need help most and middle-income families who usually find it difficult to receive aid. Offering larger Pell Grants for students at two-year colleges and bigger loans for students at four-year colleges, the provisions appeal to students. Some educators, however, are concerned that the law may intensify competition for financial aid because more students will be eligible for assistance and not enough funds will be available. Although the reauthorization includes many provisions, the two that will most directly affect UCO students involve changes in the Pell Grant and Stafford Loan.
Russia gets loan guarantee WASHINGTON (AP) — The Export-Import Bank has approved its first loan guarantees for Russian industry, and a top bank official said he hoped for a deal this fall to pump $2 billion into lagging oil and gas production there. "It's urgent," Vice Chairman Eugene K. Lawson said Thursday in announcing the $102 million loan guarantees. "Their production is dropping like a rock." See World Wrap, back page

Secret weapons
I
is election year and everybody knows that this means war. A nation watches, breathless with anticipation, as all the parties involved gather at the front lines for the seige. As they map out their battle strategies, ever watchful for the inevitable attack by the opposing force, each has prepared a secret weapon designed to protect by obscuring the issues and obliterating any need to look past the smoke hiding the respective platforms. They wish. As the dust clears from the launch of these secret weapons, Barbara, Hillary, Tipper and Marilyn, the American people can be seen blinking their eyes in cow-like confusion at the debris left behind. Not since Eleanor Roosevelt have American presidential and vice presidential candidates' wives played such highly visible roles in their husbands' fight for 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and the Oval Office. First, there's Barbara Bush, respectfully resplendant in tailored suits and faux pearls (Barbara doesn't put on airs). Who couldn't like Ganny, as her grandson Patrick calls her. She doesn't dye her hair and she believes in family values, which seem to be the push this year (family values, that is). Who could say an unkind word about a grandmother with her family gathered at her knees. Why don't we join them? (Score one for the Republicans) Then there's Marilyn Quayle. She doesn't say a lot (not yet, anyway,) but she's accomplished more than many a second lady. After all, who remembers what Spiro Agnew's wife looked like, let alone what her name was. (Score one for the Democrats) Next is Hilary Clinton — lawyer, feminist and non-cookie baker (bet Barbara bakes cookies. Score 10 for the Republicans). Mrs. Clinton tries the intelligence angle. She may not be earthy, but she's got it upstairs. Her public relations people are still trying to kiss up to the more traditional constituents who hold cookiebaking in high esteem. (Score 10 for the Democrats, for effort). Last is Tipper Gore. Everyone knows Tipper. Who could forget a name like Tipper? Sounds like she should be bouncing balls on her nose than fighting for record label warnings. But the two activities go hand-in-hand. (Score five for the Republicans and five for the Democrats). So, there they are, folks; our candidates' secret weapons. Some are more threatening than others, and all of them are unnecessary, for it is the people of the United States who hold the deadliest weapons of all. They have their votes.

Student denies rubber time and MTV
B
eing a Singaporean student myself, I was less than pleased to read the article on "International Students Adjust To Customs" because of two items. The reference to "rubber time" being practiced by many Malaysians and Singaporeans is nothing less than a flat-out lie. I'm not sure how Mr. Daneshfar acquainted himself with this little piece of information (who knows? Perhaps it is a custom in his country), but I would like to suggest he do more research on the subject. Time is a very important commodity to us. We have to be at our jobs and classes on time just as
Americans, Japanese, Persians, French or any other advanced culture does. We don't have the luxury of sliding in anytime we feel like it. Item number two was a fellow Singaporean's comment on learning to pronounce American words and phrases by watching MTV. You poor sucker! If MTV is your only source of information then you are in sad shape, but I guess if you can pick out actual words "sung" or rather screamed above blaring guitars and crashing drums, then I guess you're better at understanding English than I.
There are many programs on television that would give you a better understanding of American English and slang than MTV; sitcoms like "Roseanne" and others, news programs such as "20-20" and "Prime Time." American television is full of examples and not all of them necessarily good, so why not try communicating with actual Americans themselves. After all, they are the reality you have to deal with every day. Prakash Kelaver

People hold the power I
magine, if you will a power, not one in which you can melt objects with mere thoughts, but a gift which used in the right way can change the hearts and minds of those around them. If used right it can motivate, inspire and lead others to action and unite. This special endowment to some has meant walking miles, fighting laws, and to others making that supreme sacrifice their lives. What is this special gift that so many have fought for and yet many young adults ignore? It is the power of the vote. I have been a registered voter for three years, and in that time I have cast my ballot for sales tax increases and gubernatorial races. This fall I will once again go to the polls, but this year I do not intend to go alone. I want to actively push each and every one who is reading this letter to go out and vote. Get in-
volved and take an interest in who makes decisions about our choices. Fundamental choices that should not be legislated. Fundamental rights that say we , being citizens of the United States have the right of life, liberty and happiness. There are many in this country who question this pledge as I do. Every time I turn on the news and notice how our government has an economic plan for every other country in the world, yet we still have over a million people homeless. A government that boasts about the safe world in which no child has to worry about nuclear holocaust, but does have to worry about his neighbors. A government that has imposed military law in Iraq to keep the peace, but watched as Los Angeles burned. I know there are those of you who read this and think to yourself, 'Why vote? It doesn't matter any way.'
My response to you is that it does matter. It is your right as a citizen. Let us go to the polls and elect a president that can lead America through its economic and social troubles first and not the former republic of the Soviet Union. We need a vice president who can spell instead of picking on single mothers who would not be in the situation they're in if we had laws to make their deadbeat fathers pay child support.
Congressmen and women that can balance a checkbook, run a post office and most importantly work for the people. Let us work through our vote to make America one house where all are welcome. REGISTER TO VOTE! I hope to see you all at the polls. Robert Lee Page

Money
a Setting up finances A college student's search for a checking account By Roger Grace Staff Writer Many changes can accompany a new school year, new responsibilities, a change of residence, new friends and perhaps necessary financial changes. Following is a list of services offered to University of Central Oklahoma students by local financial institutions, including checking and savings accounts, and difficulties some students may encounter. The Edmond area has approximately 13 banks, some of which have multiple locations. Although each bank has its own policies for opening an account, all students essentially need a valid drivers license, military I.D., or passport. International students require a W-8 Exemption to open an account in the United States. However, not all area
banks will accept customers without a Social Security number, which excludes international students. According to area bank personnel, thrifty accounts are the most popular choice among college students. The amount of money required to open an account varies from no minimum to $200 dollars. Thrifty, or "economy," accounts generally have a moderate monthly charge and unlimited check writing. For the most part, however, economy accounts have a "check safekeeping" policy, where checks are not returned with the monthly bank statement. With
these accounts, duplicate checks are often required. ATM transactions range from free to 50 cents per item.
open, and also has a nominal monthly charge if the account balance falls below $500 to $1000 dollars.

The requirements for opening a savings account are similar to that of a checking; the monthly charge, however, is usually lower. Most banks allow six
savings withdraws per quarter before applying a service charge. Interest rates are usually adjusted according to the current market rate and compounded daily, and paid into the account quarterly. Because of the diversity of services available and the different policies governing accounts, the individual area banks should be contacted for specific details.

Spikers looking to reap benefits from '91 schedule By Justin Harper
Sports Editor Take a step back and then go forward. Such is the attitude of the Central Oklahoma volleyball team for 1992. Two years ago the Lady Bronchos were walking tall after completing the most successful season in UCO history. The '90 team compiled a school-record 25-11 season and looked toward '91 with baited breath. However, with the following season came competition unlike any UCO team had ever encountered. By design, head volleyball coach Mark Herrin lined up the most talent laden teams he find to challenge the Lady Bronchos. At first it looked as if the team was not going to miss a beat against the stiff competition as they roared out to a 14-1 record, however, they then went through a disasterous 3-17 slump to close out the season. The Spikers still managed a respectable 17-18 record that year, but with expectations sky high it wasn't considered a stellar season. "If you really look at it, we could have played the same people last year that we had played the year before and had the same record or better," said Herrin."But we made a commitment to go out and play the toughest schedule we could and we payed the price for it." The price that was payed could pay major dividends for the Lady Bronchos this year. "Hopefully, the kids saw what it took to compete at that level and we'll be more prepared this time around," Herrin said. The '91 schedule will undoubtedly make for a more experienced and knowledgeable group, the only draw back is that six of the 11 players who battled through that season are gone. UCO returns only three starters from a year ago and two reserves.
Senior Amy Parten returns to lead the team and junior Kristin Vincent and sophomore Carrie Peters also return as starters. Parten is an outside hitter who could be one of the best players in the Lone Star Conference this year. Parten owns eight school records and is the lone senior on the squad. Vincent also is an exciting talent. Standing six feet tall Vincent is a shot-blocking addict who was the fourth-leading player in NCAA II in that category last season. Peters has moved from setter to outside hitter, a spot she's more accustom to after being a high school All-Stater at that position. Other names to watch for are middle blocker Amy Hammond, setter Rachel Price and two outside hitters from Norman, Lorie Dover and Brook Borden. Those players are expected to occupy the starting line up.

ENTERTAINMENT SOUND OF MUSIC By Kathy Jo Karr Entertainment Editor ARTISTWATCH DRAMARAMA is a totally talented and seriously under appreciated band who recently released their fourth album. "Vinyl" is a melodic offering from the boys from New Jersey that brings to mind the Beatles. Should these guys ever get the recognition they deserve, Dramarama will be a strong force in the musical world... SASS JORDAN, the femme fatale from Canada, is bringing her maritime version of the blues to local radio these days. The KATT seems to have adopted Jordan as a `90s version of Janis Joplin, and one listen to her whiskey-and-cigarette roughened voice proves the comparison positive... THE SPIN DOCTORS new tune, "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong," is one of the better tunes to grace the radio waves recently. Best line: "I hope those cigarettes are gonna make you cough/I hope you heard this song and it pissed you off..." THE MTV MUSIC AWARDS are offering some pretty lame candidates for the viewer's choice of video of the year. Best candidate: Van Halen, for the surprisingly thought-provoking "Right Now." NEW AND UPCOMING AVAILABLE in record stores right now are new releases from Damn Yankees, Doug Stone, Alabama, Megadeth, a new Garth Brooks Christmas album (OH, JOY!), the
Beach Boys and Bobby Brown... COMING SOON are new offerings from the Ramones (no need for sedation here), Ugly Kid Joe, Tom Waits, Mary's Danish, The Best of the Smiths (haven't we all just thoroughly missed God's gift to the alternative?), Asia (I thought they were dead), Peter Gabriel, R.E.M. (YAY! Perhaps a tour this time?), Vince Gill, Mother Love Bone, Bon Jovi and Extreme. ODDS AND ENDS PICK 0' THE MONTH: TEMPLE OF THE DOG. THE BAND FROM SEATTLE THAT WE JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF: Pearl Jam. THE BAND FROM SEATTLE WE'RE THE MOST SICK OF: Nirvana, Nirvana, Nirvana. THE BAND WITH A REALLY OVERBEARING AND OBNOXIOUS ARROGANCE ABOUT THEM THAT WE'RE REALLY, REALLY SICK OF: Guns n' Roses. THE MOST IRRITATING TREND IN COUNTRY MUSIC: Signing any guy with a new pair of Wranglers and an acoustic guitar. BEST SONG BY A BAND THAT NOBODY'S REALLY HEARD OF: "Scenario," by Dramarama. BEST SONGS FOR UNSIGNED BANDS TO COVER WHEN PLAYING FOR A YOUNG, PSEUDO-HIP CROWD: "Add It Up" and "Blister In The Sun," by those wacky Violent Femmes.

Fall T.V.: Teen angst, cheesy melodrama and witty satire By Suzanne Gert Guest Writer Forget the Yucatan. Blow off the mondo beyondo babe you moshed with at Rome 90. Lose the karaoke obsession. Stop saving your change for penny beer night at the T-Bar. Okay, I'm gonna go all the way—get off the let's-get-tan-and-hear-a-band at White Water Bay kick, too. For the stairway to heaven, the Mississippi Queen, the comfortably numb days of summer are vanquished in a rapturous ecstasy of bliss. Sweet home Alabama, it's time for the fall T.V. season to begin. What will Murphy say to Quayle? Will Dylan tell Brenda about Kelly? Will Maggie and Joe boff amid the tundra? Where's Data's head? And what's the deal with Bruce Jenner? (Sorry, couldn't resist.) The only new shows that raise any interest are of the oh-God-Ican't-believe-I'm-watching-this variety. "The Heights," T.V.'s answer to "The Commitments" is yet another agony of bad acting, ridiculous dialogue, and people pretending to play guitar followed by a catchy tune and cheesy video sequence. (Oh, sorry, that's "The Monkees.")
"Freshman Dorm" on CBS seeks to steal some of Fox's thunder with the Kriss Kross crowd. Realistic characters rank among its strong points but weak dialogue ("I'm only in a sorority for my career") rears its ugly bow-bedecked head. However, the scene with Lulu spewing fruit punch back into the punch bowl at a rush party is a knee-slapper. Many truly witty shows will be back this fall. You know, the kind you can come in and quote the next morning to be hip. "Murphy Brown," "Roseanne," "Seinfeld" and "Northern Exposure" will give any closet "90210" freak a veneer of sophistication. "20/20," "60 Minutes" and "Prime Time Live" are helpful hints for adding more politically correct statements than "Dan Quayle is a twinkie" to one's vernacular. Science fiction still finds air time in this kinder, gentler if abortion-racismsexist-drug ridden-Gap infestedhurricane be-deviled society of ours. The Starship Enterprise goes where many have gone before with a spin-off in the works. A few "Next Generation" characters will be beaming off to a star base with the prime directive being "mo' money." The title show's title is someting like "Space Station 90210", or words to that effect.

The same old scenario 252 spaces created for parking in UCO lots By Tami Watson Staff Writer It's the same old scenario once again — new semester, more students, more parking problems. This semester, however, the University of Central Oklahoma is trying to ease the problem by creating 252 additional parking spaces, said Joyce Mounce, vice president of Administration at UCO. "We drove around the campus and carefully evaluated each parking lot," said Mounce. Mounce said that by reconfiguring some lots, additional parking spaces could be made available. "Many of the parking lots were not set up efficiently," she said. "By reconfiguring lots at the Liberal Arts Building, Broncho Fieldhouse and the Library, we were able to create some additional space." Stripes will also be painted along the entrance to the University Center (off 2nd Street), said Mounce. "Many students just park wherever they want alongside the entrance. The stripes will make the parking more efficient," she said. Mounce also said some resident parking around East Hall may be freed up for commuter parking. Mounce also said there is plenty of parking in the lot just East of Wantland Stadium. Mounce said students can reach any building on campus within 10 minutes. "Students think the lot is too far away. If students would park there instead of driving around looking for a closer space, they would actually save time."

Fees not wasted Students get free admission to campus sports, theater, others By Roger Groce Staff Writer Over $1 million for student activities and services will be collected from University of Central Oklahoma students this year through mandatory activity fees and tuition costs. Over 100 student organizations, in association with the student activities office, have planned a broad range of events and services for the 1992-93 school year, said Director of Student Activities, Susan Thompson. "There are a record number of organizations that received money this year, "Thompson said. She believes the additional funding should translate into more activities available to UCO students. "Theater events, sports, drama, dance programs, comedians..." are a few of the events planned, Thompson said. "Almost every event offered on campus is free to students as long as they have their UCO ID." The few exclusions may

include community events held on campus, but even these are often discounted for students, Thompson said. Historically, campus activities have received little attention from the UCO student body, and as a result, the activities office has been forced to heavily promote campus events, said Thompson. Over 90 percent of the UCO

calculate students' need for aid. This includes the portion of income the student is required to contribute for college expenses. The reauthorization bill also simplifies the system used to determine the size of each grant by replacing the three-part method with a single method. "Under the new system, there will be one uniform methodology, one number that will determine eligibility," said Fugett. The system requires that grants represent the difference between the maximum grant available and the student's contribution for college expenses. The requirement that no grant should exceed 60 percent of the cost of attending college has been eliminated.

The financial aid department at UCO is also making some changes that will benefit students, said Fugett. Fugett also added that the application process is being revised. "We are trying to work out a program in which continuing students with financial aid will not need to reapply," said Fugett. New students will have to apply, but continuing students

Harry's highjacking not flattering WASHINGTON (AP) - Margaret Truman Daniel charged the Republican Party in general - and George Bush in particular - with highjacking her father, Harry S. Truman. In an op-ed page article in today's Washington Post, Mrs. Daniel, the only daughter of Harry and Bess Truman, said her father "would not be flattered, but he surely would be flabbergasted, to learn that he has become a model for President Bush's campaign for reelection." She noted the numerous favorable references to her highly partisan and dyed-in-the-wool Democratic father at the Republican National Convention last week and a passage in Bush's speech accepting renomination in which Bush recalled Truman's come-from behind 1948 campaign for the presidency. "Personally," wrote Truman's daughter, "I have always found President Bush to be a friendly, pleasant man, invariably courteous to me. I never suspected that behind this Ivy League facade there was a political plagiarist. Said Mrs. Daniel: "I would say to George Bush, 'you are no Harry Truman."'
Summer of '92 not so hot OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Oklahomans may talk for years to come about the summer of '92 - not the heat, but the cold. So far, assistant state climatologist Howard Johnson says, this summer could go down as one of the coolest on record. Johnson said Thursday that June and July were cool and August, up to this point, was averaging 4.5 degrees below normal. It's a far cry from the normal Oklahoma August, when the heat shrivels the grass and turns highways into shimmering heat mirages. "Coming into this year, the coldest statewide average for the three summer months - June, July and August-was in 1915 with an average temperature of 75.5 degrees," he said. The cooler weather is "a cyclical type of thing," National Weather Service meteorologist Jerry Osborn said. But, he said, the exact cause isn't known. One theory is that the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines last year "would cause worldwide temperatures to
Spike's new movie ain't Disney LOS ANGELES (AP) - Spike Lee is asking blacks to skip work or school to see his film "Malcolm X." "It's not Hollywood, this ain't Walt Disney. This is about the state of race relations in the world," the black director said in the Los Angeles Times. "We're telling them they've got to turn out to support this film and support Malcolm." The film, starring Denzel Washington as the black leader assassinated in 1965, runs about three hours and cost an estimated $35 million. It opens Nov. 20. Lee's other films include "Jungle Fever" and "Do the Right Thing."
Foreign-tongued get help at polls WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush has signed a 15year extension of the Voting Rights Act expanding assistance in the voting booth for non-English-speaking citizens. The 1965 act required help if 5 percent of a locality's citizens spoke a foreign language and didn't know enough English to participate in the political process. Now, help will be mandated if a jurisdiction has 10,000 or more citizens who speak the same foreign language and are limited in their English proficiency.
