Tilton ordered to prove miracles DALLAS (AP) — District Judge Eric Moye has once again commanded televangelist Robert Tilton's attorneys to produce ministry records. Moye set a 9 a.m. Friday deadline, and then scheduled a contempt hearing for 11 a.m. Friday in case Tilton does not meet the deadline. The minister of the Dallas-area Word of Faith World Outreach Church already had been ordered to either reveal the identities of the people who say they've experienced miracles or face possible jail time. Tilton tried to get Moye removed from bearing the $50 million lawsuit against him, saying the judge was biased. A visiting judge ruled last week that Moye had not compromised him objectivity and may remain on the case.

Physical plant employee charged with embezzlement By Joe Umbarger Staff Writer
A University of Central Oklahoma employee has been charged with embezzlement in conjunction with equipment taken from the physical plant on Aug. 27 an unrelated incident from the theft that occurred Aug. 2 and Aug. 9. On Aug. 26 David McClellan, physical plant director, received an anonymous phone call warning him that John Wesley Jackson, an employee at the physical plant, was going to steal equipment belonging to the plant. McClellan notified UCO police and Ted Jones, of the investigative unit, set up surveillance Friday afternoon. "I staked it out beginning at about 4:00 p.m., and just waited," Jones said. At approximately 5:30 p.m. Jones said he saw the suspect hook up a trailer loaded with various lawn mowing equipment, including a self-propelled John Deer mower, then drive another lawn mower onto the trailer. Jackson was stopped at Danforth and Blackwelder, with Sgt. Joseph Perry and Officer Melvin Barrow assisting Jones. McClellan was called to the site to verify that Jackson did not have permission to have the equipment, and Jackson was placed under arrest and taken to the Oklahoma County Jail. "We got some good information," Jones said. "Every move (Jackson) made was up to him. UCO police said that Jackson owned a small lawnmower business, and it is thought that he wanted the equipment for use in that business. The recovery of the trailer and lawn mowing equipment brings the total amount of stolen property recovered by UCO police in the last three weeks to approximately $10,000. "It's a case of people cooperating with police by letting us know when something is going on," Jones said. "We'll always check it out."

Student wants to continue education By Heide Brandes and Joe Umbarger
Staff Writers A University of Central Oklahoma student whose enrollment was canceled by administration would like to continue his education at UCO, but there's a problem. Elmer Lee Miller, Jr., a criminal justice major working on his master's, enrolled for the fall '93 semester and was placed in a dorm, like many other students. However, less than a week after classes began, Miller's admission and residency were denied, and his tuition and fees returned, after it was learned he had recently been released from prison. "I understand the school' s point of view," Miller said, but added he was frustrated by it. "Dr. Ryan and Dr. Land talked with me

Page 19 of the UCO Student Handbook states that a student may be denied admission if he has "been convicted of a felony or convicted of any lesser crime involving moral turpitude," however, on Page 42 of the handbook, it states: "The University's policies concerning students' behavior are an educational and rehabilitative approach in contrast to a punitive approach." Ryan said UCO campus police had called the school and told them of Miller's felony background.

Oklahoma does not need more toll roads
HA c ialilkifi PEOYIM I
It is not enough that Oklahoma is one of the few states left that use toll roads to generate revenue, but now Gov. David Walters wants more. And not just a little more. He wants 10 new turnpikes in additon to the toll increases on the turnpikes already in use. The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority would need S252.6 million in revenue a year to operate the new turnpikes and would generate revenue bond debts totalling more than S691 million. If buildino. new turnpikes would generate more debt than revenue, where is the logic in building more? In fact. if the new turnpikes fail to raise the expected S50,000 a mile. then a toll increase of 89 to 160 percent will be implemented. A legislative study projected the toll for an Oklahoma City to Tulsa trip on the Turner Turnpike could rise to S6.75 one way if the bond issue is passed. This is after the 25 cent increase that was put into effect this summer. Oklahoma needs to pay off the toll roads already built before new ones are proposed. Ten new turnpikes could mean every major highway in the state could cost money to drive on with no obvious revenue in sight.
Picketers should allow parents to choose This week, protesters have been picketing Channel 5, protesting the soon-to-be-aired show N. Y.P.D. Blue. One woman held a sign with the slogan "Protect our Children" slashed across it. Others held signs with similar messages putting down the filth of sex and violence of the new show. When has it ever been anyone else's responsibility to protect one's child from distasteful programs other than the parents? A'.Y.P.D. Blue is an adult program as are horror and war movies. The shows are obviously made for adults and warn parents tbat the show may not be suitable for some viewing audiences. Enough warning, surely. It should be only the parents' responsibility as to what their children watch, not the industry who only makes the entertainment. There are some adults both with and without children who want to watch N. Y.P.D., who want to watch sex and violence and , most importantly, who want to have the ability to choose to watch it.

Subcommittee addresses fee waiver issue By Roy Howe Staff Writer
With Sll million in additional revenue expected statewide from this year's tuition hikes and Sll million in fee waivers being granted at the state's colleges and universities, several House members requested a subcommittee on education to assemble at the state capital last week to address the justification. Representatives Danny Hilliard, D-Sulphur; Wanda Jo Peltier, DOklahoma City and Calvin Anthony, D-Stillwater called for the study on tuition fee waiver. poli-
cies for state learning institutions. The University of Central Oklahoma will waive fees to students in the amount of S1,558.000 this academic year. The recently approved 7 percent increase in tuition at UCO is expected to generate S1.068.000. Phil Arnold. assistant to the vice president for academic affairs, explained that increases in tuition and tuition fee waivers are two different areas. "The two do not relate. There is nothing illegal here or inappropriate, these are State Regent policies," he said. Lawmakers criticizing the fee waivers are concerned mainly with money granted to out-of-state stu-
dents. "The University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University are more generous than the operators of 'Wheel of Fortune,'" said Peltier in a statement distributed across the state. "Those schools (OU and OSU) gave S7.2 million to out-of-state students, not counting the Academic Scholars," she adds. "Over S2.5 million of that amount went to foreign students, 80 percent of whom are men," she continues. Arnold said 5316,495 is allotted for UCO non-resident waivers. He said that out-of-state residents attending UCO can receive
fee waivers based on military, graduate assistant, university scholarship and athletic categories. "This isn't cash," Arnold said, "we just waive fees." Fee waivers are deducted from the university's educational and general budget and,by State Regent policy . are not to exceed 3 percent of that fund. The $1.2 million in UCO waivers allocated to residents of Oklahoma fall into in several categories with at least 50 percent being need-based waivers. The University of Central Oklahoma has comprised a University Scholarship Committee which issues about 275 Regent's Merit
Scholarships from close to 1,200 applicants Arnold said. Four achievement scholarship programs have been established which grant more than 250 scholarships each year. In addition, the deans from the university's four colleges allocate fee waivers to their departments at their own discretion. Music and sports departments are also allowed fee waivers. Most waivers are allocated in $500 increments for the fall and spring semesters. Lawmakers said that they are "not on a witch hunt," but they will continue to address the fee waiver issue.

SGA swears in president after long postponement By Joyce Kirtley Staff Writer
The University of Central Oklahoma's Student Government Association swore in its new president at its meeting Monday—an event that should have taken place last April. The swearing in was postponed due to anonymous grievances filed during last spring's election. After being sworn in, Aaron Montgomery, SGA president,
thanked members of the student senate for sticking by him during the "whole ordeal." The grievances were filed on how the election was run, not on the candidates, said Montgomery. "I will take actions to fix the Constitution to avoid what happened in the last election," said Montgomery. " I want to work on restructuring the student government." Montgomery is a pre-med major and has been a member of SGA for three years.

Miller was taking classes. "Dr. Ryan told me they didn't want a 'Rodney King' -type incident on campus," Miller said. Ryan denied the comment and added he would never make such a comment. This is not Miller's first time as a student at UCO. He was a student at UCO in 1985, when the felony charge interrupted his education. While incarcerated, Miller earned four associates' degrees from UCO through the Talk-back TV program. Dr. Richard P. Rettig, chairperson and associate professor of sociology at UCO, said Miller is an A student, and always turned in more work than was required in class. "He has written things for me that are far superior to work by
average students," Rettig said. Rettig said he understood how administration officials arrived at the decision to ask Miller to leave, but added, "If you deny (the edu-

cational opportunities) he needs to exist in life, it's like propping a man up, then knocking the props out from under him." When Miller was admitted, he
requested a single, intensive study room in the residence halls, he said. "I didn't know it was co-ed," said Miller. Miller has an academic background in sociology, psychology and criminology, and says he would like to teach in the criminal justice field some day. "I think I can bring a different point of view because of my experience of being in prison," Miller said. "I'd like to be an inspiration to the guys in prison who could say, 'Miller made it, so can I. — Ironically, another experience Miller could bring is a law enforcement background in Florida. But for now, Miller says he's content to wait, and maybe try to enroll again in the spring. "I'll give them time to let me prove myself a little bit," Miller said, "then maybe be allowed to re-enroll."

Bronchos kickoff year at Mesa State By Justin Harper Sports Editor Come Saturday the Stocker Stadium field in Grand Junction, Colo. will be covered with Mavericks and Bronchos. . And, despite the way it sounds, the event being held is neither a rodeo nor a car show. No. Saturday marks a much bigger occasion -Central Oklahoma's 1993 football opener. UCO will make the journey to Colorado to play Mesa State in a 7 p.m. non-conference contest. The Bronchos are coming off a 6-4 record and look to exceed that mark this year. Mesa State is also a team looking to improve after going 3-8 a year ago. The Bronchos return 13 starters from last years club, which ended a string of six-straight losing seasons, eight offensive starters return and five defensive. Mesa, on the other hand, returns virtually intact. The Mavericks lost only three starters from last seasons club and have nine returnees on offense and 10 on defense. Mesa State finished in fifth place in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference with a 3-4 league mark. UCO, meanwhile, notched a 2-4 Lone Star Conference record in '92. The game marks the fourth time the two schools have played, with Mesa leading the series 2-1. The last meeting betwen the two was in 1989 when Mesa pulled out a 18-17 squeeker. The Bronchos will match their high powered offense against the Mavericks' stiff defense. First-year starting quarterback Terry Payne will direct UCO. The senior from Hemet, Ca. will have at his disposal two of the best tailbacks in NCAA II. Seniors Tyrone Jones and Glenn Starks both are capable of making life miserable for the Mesa defense. Jones led the LSC in rushing a year ago with 1,075 yards and Starks is looking to pick up where he left off in '92, when he averaged 11.1 yards every time he touched the pigskin. Leading the Maverick charge will be junior quarterback Jake Logue and junior halfback Darryl Taylor. The Broncho defense will come at Logue with a defensive line that features NCAA II preseason All-American Ira Richards. Richards, a 6-foot-1, 263 pound senior, is a two-time All-LSC pick and is coming off a season that saw him Tack up 63 tackles and 10 sacks. The Bronchos look to get off to as hot a start as they managed last year. UCO won it's first four games en route to a No. 14 national ranking. The game can be heard live on KCSC 90.1 FM.

Professor writes book about Civil War general •
By Steve Sager Staff Writer
"The Lion of the South," a book written by University of Central Oklahoma's Dr. Diane Krerrun and her husband Thomas about the life of General Thomas A. Hindman, has recently been published. Hindman was a confederate gen-
eral who attempted to create a biracial political organization capable of competing with the Republican Party during the Civil War era. Hindman also commanded the Trans-Mississippi, a military district, which included Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, part of Missouri and the Indian Territory of Oklahoma in the Civil War in the summer of 1862. This is a fact that D. Kremm said she believes should
make this book interesting to the area. The book is based on newspaper articles, letters, diaries and government accounts, said D. Kremm. She is the director of graduate studies in history and geography and wrote the book under her publishing name Diane Neal. D. Kremm, who has taught at UCO for 16 years, has written historical articles for various jour-
nals such as Military History of the Southwest, Arkansas Historical Quarterly and Chronicles of Oklahoma. "I decided to continue writing under a name that I had already established for myself," said D. Kremm. Thomas Kremm, who coauthored the book, is the administrator of Archives and Records at the Oklahoma Department of Libraries.
"We usually work as a team, we also work separately, but we like to work as a team," said D. Kremm. Kremm is originally from Kershaw, S.C. and said she has been interested in Civil War history for as lcag as she can remember. Although the book is not available at the University Center Bookstore right now, it has been ordered, said James Sutton, textbook supervisor at the bookstore.
45th Infantry seeks recruits By Scott Curry Student Writer
After a recent military cutback scare, the commander of Edmond's 45th Infantry Brigade seeks to inform potential recruits that the Thunderbirds of the 45th are alive and well. Maj. John F. Pitchlynn, company commander of Edmond's Army National Guard unit, has 79 part- time jobs to offer and is looking to UCO students and ex-military personnel to fill the slots. He says jobs are available in administration, air defense, communications, military police, maintenance, and medical services. "Two years ago we were slated to be deactivated but were ultimately taken off the list. It really hurt our recruiting power. People didn't want to join a unit that was rumored to be cut, but we're still here and stronger than ever," says

Pitchlynn. The Desert Storm veteran stresses the advantages of a career in the National Guard to students. Among which, he says, are financial aid through the Montgomery GI Bill, various scholarship programs, access to commissary shopping, and health insurance. "We do more than just train to go to war, although protecting this country is our primary mission. The majority of our activities involve supporting civic actions during natural disasters and doing various volunteer work," said Pitchlynn. Applicants who have no military experience must be willing to undergo 3-6 months of training, he says, and ex-military personnel seeking a position must have been discharged honorably with no major disciplinary problems.

UCO music theater graduate performs for Rogers, Hammerstien family members By Terri King Staff Writer
University of Central Oklahoma music theater graduate, Greg White, returned from a three-and-a-half month stay in Tulsa this summer. White performed in the annual Discoveryland production of Rogers and Hammerstien's "Oklahoma." White, a 1992 UCO graduate, played the part of Will Parker in 75 performances of the play held every season outdoors in the Discoveryland Amphitheater. "The heat was stifling. It was a lot of sweat, but a lot of fun," said White. "I liked the role and the audiences." In attendance at various performances were members of the National Governor's Association and family members of Rogers and Hammerstien and members of the Rogers and Hammerstien Foundadon. "It was an honor to perform for them." White said. White received the "Spirit of Oklahoma" award, an award given each season to an outstanding cast member by Discoveryland.

Almost everybody (in music theater department) works somewhere, and I think that says something about our department. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Greg White UCO music theater graduate music theater department) works somewhere, and I think that says something about our department." said White. White is currently working on a master's degree in creative studies at UCO and is a graduate assistant to Director of Music Theater Carveth Oslerhaus. This is the first year the position of graduate assistant has been
offered, and among his duties, White will co-direct various productions. White has ample opportunity to use the production skills he has learned at UCO in the business he owns with friend Machel Duncan, who is also a UCO graduate. The business, "On Broadway Productions," puts on full-length productions using children in all the parts. White says that, though the roles are demanding, the children meet the demand. "I don't even treat them like kids," said White, " If you treat them like professionals, they'll act like professionals. It's rewarding work." White said he feels that the children benefit from the experiences they have with the plays. "I think performing is vital. If you can get up and talk to a group of people, it's going to help you." said White. White says he plans to go to New York in a year or so to try his hand at performing there. "I'd like a professional performing career," White said, "I've always been somebody that loves it."

Edmond Church offers free breakfast, sack lunches By Mike Tortorelli Student Writer University of Central Oklahoma students have the choice of benefiting from or volunteering for an ongoing program called "Breakfast On Boulevard" from 6:30 a.m. to 7:15 am. each weekday at First Christian Church of Edmond at 202 East 1st & Boulevard. Started on May 7, 1990 by Edmond residents Patty McKibbin and Carol Roberts, the program provides breakfast and sack lunches at no charge for people in the community. "Our purpose for starting B.O.B. was to feed anyone in need or anyone who was lonely. There are a lot of people struggling to make ends meet. We don't ask any questions. There is no test to take. We try our best to make everyone feel at home and comfortable," said McKibbin. The program originated at a Methodist church in Stillwater and spread to McKibbin's hometown of Ponca City. She brought the idea for the program to Edmond where it now provides food for UCO students, single parents, children, elderly, other individuals and families, McKibbin said. McKibbin stresses that the project has been a success because of support from senior Minister Kyle Maxwell and volunteers from the church and community who help run the operation. "Our volunteers arrive by 6:00 a.m., and we personally serve breakfast. Our time is limited because many volunteers have to go on to work. We've had high school students, college students, executives, teachers, retirees, sec-
retaries, parents and others from the community help out, " said McKibbin. "Funding for the operation comes strictly from donations from organizations like Wynn's IGA, Skaggs and Daylight Donuts and from small donations from the church and community. McKibbin said she especially remembers former UCO students like sisters Katrina and Julie Lee of Ardmore as dependable and efficient workers who helped for three years. Also, current UCO student Walter White III volunteered to post fliers on campus and to let others know about B .0.B . after he learned about it.
99 I think it's a really worthwhile cause, and I believe it's convenience can help out a lot of UCO students like it once helped me. —Walter White III UCO Student "I think it's a really worthwhile cause, and I believe it's convenience can help out a lot of UCO students like it once helped me," said White. UCO student Harry Coleman said he took advantage of the program when money was low during the summer and would recommend it to anyone who does not have time to fix breakfast or is just hungry. "The food was great. The people were very nice. They did not treat you like you were lower than them,
and they told me to come back anytime. If you're on a budget, it's there for you," said Coleman. Meals are distributed in the church basement accessible through the southwest door, and the menu changes daily. Milk, orange juice, coffee and three kinds of cereal are served everyday with doughnuts on one or two days, McKibbin said. "Our sack lunches include two sandwiches, either bologna and cheese or peanut butter and jelly, an apple, two cookies and a scripture message. A number of ladies make homemade cookies for the lunches. We think this is an extra way to tell people we really care about them," said McKibbin. "We have high quality food and also the best-tasting pancakes and biscuits I've ever tried." On an average day about 56 breakfasts and 78 sack lunches are served. Over 7,800 breakfasts and sack lunches were served the first year, over 14,000 the . second year and over 28,000 last year, McKibbin said. Meals are served all year long except on the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas. "There is a need for this in Edmond because there are so many needy people. B.O.B. has been wonderful in every way , and although we have about 100 volunteers, I encourage anyone who is interested to volunteer to help us out," said McKibbin.

Institute of Auditors name UCO professor CIA member By Joyce Kirtley Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma has a member of the CIA. Certified Internal Auditor, that is. Dr. Robert Terrell, assistant professor of accounting, was recently named as a Certified Internal Auditor (CIA), a recognized professional group, by the Institute of Internal Auditors in Altamonte Springs, Fla. As a result of his CIA selection, Dr. Terrell has developed two senior-level auditimi, courses at
UCO. One in internal auditing concepts, and another to be offered next semester on auditing and the computer. Terrell received the honor after meeting the CIA requirements. "I had to meet the experience requirements and pass a four-part, two-day exam," Terrell said. Benefits of a Certified Internal Auditor include career advancement and acceptance in the role of advisor to management. Terrell said he completed the CIA Program for the students. " I wanted to give them more exposure to the job market," he said.

Math/Science Dean to marry Physical Plant director By Joy McNutt Staff Writer
Members of the University of Central Oklahoma staff, faculty and administration are invited to attend the wedding and reception of two UCO administrators. Dr. G. Kay Owens. Dean of the Math and Science College. and Don Powers. director of safety and environmental management. Physical Plant. will be married at 7 p.m. Sept. 10 at the First Presbyterian Church in Edmond. Immediately following the ceremony, the reception will be at the University Center Grand Ballroom. "At sometime or another in the positions that we're in. G. Kay and I worked with almost everybody on the campus. And we felt it was probably appropriate that
we invite everybody," Powers said. Powers also said he thought the UCO students will probably think they 're just a couple of old people in love. "And they would be right." he added. "I don't think it's too much different for us except that we've had more livin2 experience than younger people." he said. "I think one thing that is really good between G. Kay and me is...we started going to church together. We found out we really share the same beliefs. have the same values, and we're an awful lot alike in more than just a superficial way." Owens said she and Powers worked together for about a year before they began dating. During that time she thought he didn't think of her as anything but a
dean. He said he noticed right away that "she is an extremely beautiful and attractive woman," but they both agree that they respected each other first as professionals. The romance started when they were at a social function and he asked her to dance, Owens said. "As we're going to say in the wedding ceremony, we first had mutual respect. Then we became friends through sharing time together, activities together and dancing of course. Then when we danced, it was so right," Owens said. "Then came love, for me undefinable," she continued. "I always thought it was mutual respect, common goals, having fun together and those sorts of things. I feel rather ignorant at my advanced age to not really laiow what it was. It was so much more than all those

things that I thought it was." "While our relationship is exciting and fun, there is also a deeper peace and contentment about it that, I think younger people don't have...that you get through maturity and life experience," said Powers. The matron of honor will be the bride's sister, Sue Ann Goodman, assistant professor, UCO math and
statistics. Powers' father, Harry H. Powers, will be the best man. David McClellan, UCO physical plant director will be a groomsman, Powers said. There will be cake, punch and finger sandwiches at the reception, Powers said, and of course dancing. The band will be led by Lee Rucker, UCO music instructor, Powers said.
