Search launched for president By Larry Rogers Staff Writer

Poster children protest telethon LAS VEGAS (AP)—Jerry Lewis kicked of his 26th Labor Day telethon Sunday night, promising a broad range of celebrities to entertain between donation pitches for children afflicted with muscular dystrophy. Two former Muscular Dystrophy Association poster children, Cris Matthews and Mike Ervin, have announced a nationwide campain to boycott the telethon until Lewis is removed and the MDA's sentimental appeal is changed. A handful of demonstrators in wheelchairs protested in Las Vegas and in Los Angeles, where some wore banners declaring "Jerry's Telethon, Annual Ritual of Shame," while chanting "power not pity."

Elvis love letter sold at auction

VICKSBURG, Miss. (AP)—A private collector in London paid $7,700 for a love letter Elvis Presley wrote 33 years ago. The letter, written when Presley was in Germany with the Army, was auctioned Thursday at Christie's Fine Arts Auctioneers. The winning bid fell short of the $10,000 the letter was expected to fetch. The letter was dated Oct. 28, 1958, and addressed to Anita Wood Brewer of Vicksburg. It begins "Dear Little Bitty." The 5-foot-2 Brewer said Elvis often called her "little" because of her small frame. Brewer 53 said she had no idea how the letter got to London.

Choosing a replacement for retiring University of Central Oklahoma President Bill J. Lillard could take as long as three years, said Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges President Wayne Salisbury. Salisbury attended last Thursday's UCO faculty senate meeting to announce that an advisory committee was being selected and that the names of those appointed would be revealed at the board's meeting later this month. "One or two years wouldn't be unusual, even three," Salisbury said. Once the committee is formed, it will decide whether to make a "fast track" search in which a new president could be chosen by February or March to take office in June, or to make a longer national search. "If the Regents choose to have a legitimate national search, the process would probably be extended to between two and three years," said Bart Binning, UCO faculty senate president in a letter to Salisbury. "If the Regents were to choose this fast track option, it is thought that the search would probably be limited to locally known

personalities such as those listed recently in the local media," Binning said. If a national search is called for, an interim president will be appointed by the board to serve until the new president is selected, Salisbury said. The committee will consist of four regents, the UCO student senate president, the faculty senate president, alumni president, the UCO Foundation president, two elected faculty members, two elected administrators and Edmond citizens-at-large. Some faculty members have expressed concern over the fact that a doctorate degree is preferred, but not required of applicants for the position. Creative studies chair Christopher Givan asked Salisbury how the board could justify appointing even an interim president with- Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colout an earned doctorate. leges President Wayne Salisbury ad"We justify it by the person that we de- dresses the UCO faculty senate Thurscide to choose, in interviewing and if we day.

Pee-wee's family receives support NASHVILLE, Term. (AP)—The sister of children's show actor Peewee Herman says the family has received a lot of support since his arrest. "It's a difficult situation to see my brother attacked like this," Abby Rubenfeld said Thursday in an interview on radio station WWTN-FM. "My brother has stated his innocence and I believe him," she said on the live program "Teddy Bart's Roundtable." "He and my family and myself have received hundreds of letters of support, which we appreciate." Pee-wee Herman., 38, whose real name is Paul Reubens, was arrested July 26 at an adult movie theater in Sarasota, Ha., and charged with indecent exposure. V See WORLD WRAP, back page.

Propriety lost on parking lots he American obsession with a good parking space defies all logic and common sense. Intelligent, sophisticated people are reduced to expletives, hand gestures and sometimes even fisticuffs for the privilege of being 15 feet closer to the door. At the University of Central Oklahoma, commuters are no less civil or rude. On this campus any slot will suffice—as long as it is legal. Even spots in the cheap seats are sought after as zealously as those in the front row. And there is a valid reason parking spaces are so hard _to find: There aren't enough of them. Approximately 14,500 students attend UCO, 1,250 of whom live on campus. The remaining 13,250 students commute. However, there are 3,508 parking spaces designated for commuters—that's roughly two parking slots for every seven commuters. Of course, all commuters aren't on campus at the same time but the ratio is lopsided enough that a legitimate parking space is a prize to be coveted. There are no alternatives to the parking problem either. Off-campus parking is non-existent. None of the streets bordering the campus (University, Ayers, Bauman and Second) permit parking. And the side streets in all directions restrict or ban parking at the curb. A commuter has to travel east of Blackwelder and west of Jackson, sometimes west of Broadway, to find unrestricted, on-street parking. And the situation gets worse. There is no city bus service to the campus, although Mass Trans expanded area service this year. And walking is for daredevils. With few stretches of sidewalk approaching the campus, pedestrians compete with automobiles most of the way. So commuters jockey and wait and maneuver for any spot they can find. And if class time approaches, many take what they can get—a staff slot and a ticket. And fines for commuters using faculty/staff parking spaces increased by 50 percent from $10 to $15. The fine for parking in resident spaces doubled from $5 to $10. But that's another story. If the university has a "wish list," tiered parking garages on all four corners should be added to it. Otherwise, remote, off-site parking with shuttle service to the campus could be a viable alternative to parking lot duels for the slot by the door. V

I couldn't stand the pace at home so .•• By Jo Pydynkowsky Guest Columnist

I graduated on May 10th. The morning of May 11th I was ecstatic. School was finished and, for the first time in four years, or eleven semesters straight, I had time to do anything and everything I wanted. No books, nl classes, no lengthy assignments, no teachers ... just lazy bliss. I should have known it would cost me. Bliss lasted one week, minus four days, then panic set in. That's PANIC, with a couple screams for emphasis. Everytime I left the house I looked for my book bag. Cruising past the date book became an hourly ritual. Was I supposed to be someplace? Wasn't there something I was supposed to have done today? I began standing around after serving dinner as though waiting for a grade. I did ironing and windows, two chores I have NEVER done, as though they were for extra credit. Without school, I was

lost. I had become a scholastic junky and I needed help. A friend suggested I try watching the daily soap operas. That lasted two days and I realized I was seeing all men as potential terrorists, arsonists, drug addicts, murderers, kidnappers, lechers, mobsters, or adulterers. I think those soap writers are sadistic exscholastic junkies. Maybe I could do something with my children? I found them playing in the back yard. "Would you like to play a game?" I asked. They looked at each other, then smiled and looked at me. "Daddy says we aren't allowed to play with strangers." I added children to my list of DON'Ts. I spent the next few months looking for a job which, with Oklahoma's current economy, was akin to being a teacher and expecting a raise in pay. John Sununu will sprout wings first. I decided to take mother's ad-

vice and work with what I had. I enrolled in graduate school. It was the first day of school. I knew that. I even knew the date and time. Reality had returned. My children knew my name was Mom, the crunching of rice crinkles underfoot as I crossed the floor made the kitchen sound cheeful once more, and it felt like home with my book bag ready and parked in front of the door. My husband actually smiled as he headed to work wearing one of the many new shirts I'd bought to replace the ones I'd ironed. The house seemed to breath a sigh of relief, also. All was right with the world - or was it? Sitting around all summer and doing laundry had been a mistake. My pants didn't fit. I threw them on the bed and headed for the refrigerator. It gave my ego a real high to write LAUNDRY on the list underneath IRONING, WINDOWS, and CHILDREN. I didn't care, though, I was on my way back to school.

OSLEP promotes growth and credit By Penny Owen Staff Writer

Imagine being part of a think tank debating reform in the Soviet Union; or being guided into the minds of terrorists by a renowned author on the subject; or even spending time with a tribal court judge sorting out Native American rights. Then leaving with two credit hours on your transcript for the effort. Qualified students will have these opportunities during the 1991-92 Oklahoma ScholarLeadership Enrichment Program (OSLEP), sponsored by the Oklahorn State Regents for Higher Education. OSI FP is a series of eight seminars led by carefully chosen scholars whose expertise falls under the theme The Future of Humanity: Political and Economic Freedom.

In each seminar, the scholar will retreat with a group of 25 students for an intense, five-day analysis of their chosen topic to designated college and university campuses throughout Oklahoma. "It wasn't really as difficult as I thought it would be, but it was more enjoyable than I expected," said fine arts major Elaine Gammill, who attended one of last year's seminars. "The hardest part was doing the paper afterwards." Some seminars may require students to prepare for their session by reading in advance and/or completing a paper. All mandatory reading material is provided prior to the seminar. OSLEP is open statewide to juniors, seniors and graduate stu-

dents with at least a 3.0 grade point average. Outstanding freshmen and sophomore students are considered. "It's an exceptional privilege to get to go because the students are selected," said finance professor and University of Central Oklahoma OSLEP coordinator Dr. Donald Fleming. "In fact, they (OSLEP) end up with waiting lists almost always." Students must stay on the campus hosting the event during the five days. A dormitory room and meals are provided. The seminars are held from Oct. to March and will require missing regularly scheduled classes. Each seminar costs $91.60. Some scholarships are available. The two credit hours are considered a 4000 level University of Oklahoma course, transferrable to any participating college as an elective. Transfer fees are included in the cost. An "S" or "U" will appear on the transcript in lieu of a grade. Last year, UCO ranked second in OSLEP attendance, with 29 students participating. OU had the highest participation with 58 students attending. "They (OSLEP) have always picked a large number of UCO students because they represent themselves so well," Fleming said. Interested students should contact Fleming in the Room 29 of the Business Building or call ext.2824. "I've had tremendous feedback," said Fleming. "The people who teach the seminars are so well-known and so good. It's just a wonderful experience." V

Kilmer gives audience front row view of Morrison By Kathy Karr

Staff Writer

Oliver Stone, Oscar-winning director of "Platoon" and "Born On The Fourth of July," journeys into the dark side of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll with the epic film, "The Doors," to be released on video September 25. For those who missed it the first time around, Stone recreates the sights and sounds of the '60's. The movie focuses on Jim Morrison, the charismatic and now deceased leader of the legendary rock band, The Doors. Jim Morrison, played by Val Kilmer ("Top Gun," "Willow"), is portrayed in Stone's film as a selfinvolved jerk whose only redeeming quality is his talent for music. This image of Morrison, according to all accounts, is probably true, but it makes it very difficult to be sympathetic for this character on whose back this movie rests. However, Kilmer is brilliant in this role. Stone uses the hypnotic music of this hot band as the focus of this film, much to his credit. It's obvio'is from Stone's portrayal of the music and the era that he has a great love of the subject. Stone is also a great choreographer. The scenes in this film of The Doors performing live are wonderfully energetic. Kilmer, seemingly posessed with Morrison's spirit, spins and jumps all around the stage, then collapses in a drunk and drugged stupor. And although each move was carefully rehearsed, the performance looks and sounds natural.

Oklahoma Natural Gas Oct. 3

But these flaws are easily ignored as the film opens and viewers are swept away by Oliver Stone's holocaust of sight and sound. Some of the magic of the cinematography may be lost on the small screen, but the music of The Doors and Stone's use of it is enough to keep you riveted until the credits roll. "The Doors" will be available at Rainbow Records on September 25. V

The down side of this film is in the casting of Meg Ryan and Kathlenn Quinlan. Ryan, ("Top Gun," "When Harry Met Sally") appears much too innocent and naive to play Morrison's drug-addled girlfriend. And Quinlan, who plays the other woman in Morrison's life, is strident and obnoxious, making it difficult to understand why Morrison would be attracted to her.

Former FBI agent solving problems for UCO business college students By Marcia Benedict Staff Writer

Bank robberies and kidnappings were everyday occurrences 26 years ago for retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent, Dr. James Brewster, now an associate professor of management at the University of Central Oklahoma. Brewster said while he worked as an agent, he went back to school to earn his Doctorate Degree in order to teach college business courses. "I've been teaching fundamentals of management, business policy and other general business courses since 1982," he said. Brewster said although he enjoys teaching college students, he had some "wonderful experiences" as an FBI agent. "In about 1972 or 1973, I had the pleasure of working with some of the first female agents assigned in Oklahoma," he said, "We treated the women just like we treated the men, if they couldn't do the work, they couldn't have the job."

Dr. James Brewster

Brewster said meeting with law enforcers from throughout the state was also a highlight during his FBI career. Recently, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation Commission re-elected Brewster as the board's vice chairman. In 1977, Governor David Boren appointed Brewster to serve a seven-year term on the commission. Brewster then was reappointed by Governor George Nigh

to serve his second term on the commission. Brewster said each of the seven members on the commission serves a seven year term, and a board chairman and vice chairman are elected yearly by the commission members. "Each year in August, the commission chooses someone to be the chairman and someone to be the vice chairman, this year they decided to choose me as vice chairman again," Brewster said. The commission is responsible for naming and dismissing OSBI directors. The board also hears complaints against the bureau and is instrumental in making policy decisions, Brewster said. Brewster's second term on the commission will end in August 1992. Although, no other commission member has served more than two terms, Brewster said he is ready to be the first to serve three terms on the commission. "I've been approached and asked to stay for another seven years, and yes, I will stay if I'm appointed again by the governor," Brewster said. V

Thief leaves campus officials baffled By Larry Rogers

Staff Writer

The disappearance of a plaque and letters from a courtyard wall southeast of the College of Business Administration has campus police and business college officials baffled. "I can't imagine why someone would want those things," said College of Business Dean Frank Wert. The theft occurred sometime between 5 p.m. Aug. 6 and 10 a.m. Aug. 7, when the letters were discovered missing. Metal letters spelling College of Business Administration had been pried from the west side of the wall, and a plaque listing faculty

members had been removed from the east side of the wall. The letters and plaque are valued at $2161. Damage to the brick wall was minor, Wert said. No arrest has been made, and campus police have no leads or suspects. "Crimes like that are frustrating and irritating," said Bob Roberts, UCO police chief. "You wonder what possible value something like that could be to anybody else." Wert said his department would like to be able to offer a "noquestions-asked" reward for the return of the plaque and letters, or information leading to the arrest of the person or persons responsible for the disappearance.

"We're looking at finding some non-state funds somewhere, maybe an individual," Wert said. Charges of larceny, vandelism, and posession of stolen property will be filed in the event 'Of an arrest, Roberts said. V

Study attempts to explain male homosexual behavior WASHINGTON (AP)—A cluster of brain cells that may guide the sex drive of men is twice as large in heterosexual males than it is in homosexual males, suggesting that homosexuality could be a matter of biological destiny, a researcher reports. In microscopic examinations of the brains of 41 men and women, including 19 homosexual men, Simon LeVay of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, San Diego, Calif., found that a specific cluster of cells was always larger for heterosexual males than the other specimens. Levay cautioned that while the evidence demonstrates a strong link between the size of that group of cells and the sex-

ual preference of males, researchers still aren't sure which is cause and which is effect. But he made clear that, based on his own findings and earlier animal studies, he believes the odds are there is a strong biological determinant of homosexuality—something long argued by many within the gay community. In the brains of heterosexual men, he said, the INAH 3 is "about the size of a grain of sand." In homdsexual men and in women, the structure is "small to vanishing." LaVay said the INAH possibly could form normally in homosexual men and then, for some reason, shrink or die in

adult life.

Flashback hits fashion world By Penny Owen Staff Writer Not much is predictable in life, but when it comes to fashion you can count on one thing: it will be back. No matter how strange the color combination, how impractical, how unflattering or how embarrassed you feel when looking at old photos of yourself or your mom wearing it - it will resurrect itself from the pages of dusty catalogs and the kids will love it. Even if it's a florescent flower power psychedelic miniskirt worn under a suede fringe jacket - it will be embraced. Oklahoma City has felt vibrations from the 60s for the last two years. Some local trendsetters saw it coming even before designers such as Isaac Mizrahi and JeanPaul Gaultier draped trapeze dresses and go-go boots on Madonna and Janet Jackson. But, according to those who keep a finger on the

fashion pulse, the return of the 60s was no surprise. "People want to go back and do something they didn't do," said Gwin Mullins, owner of Collectibles, Etc., 1516 N.W. 23rd Street. A woman in her mid-30s who has since penned her once long, straight hair, Mullins speaks with authority on the subject: "Ten years is too soon because they saw their mother wearing it. Generally, people go 20 years back." When customers began asking for it last year, Peggy Curtis, owner of Vintage Plus, 727 N.W. 23rd Street, purchased authentic 60s merchandise from warehouses with 30-year-old backstock. "It's called 'new-old,' which is original that's never been used," she said. Indeed, a stroll through the rooms can inject feelings of "deja vu" among those old enough to have experienced the era. Passing through a beaded curtain, the shopper is accosted by dress patterns in mellow yellow, lime

green, Brady Bunch orange and shocking pink. Love beads, mood rings, daisy pins and iron crosses dangle above in 'head shop' fashion. The only link to the 90s is the jazz music in the background. And the proprietors say business is booming. "There's a real fascination with the late 60s, early 70s right now," Mullins speaks with authority on the subject. "It was the first time that so many people became so politically active. They knew what was going on and wanted to make changes. Kids today see the 60s as a gateway to a lot of change." More evidence of the comeback seeps out in local mall stores, although not as dramatically. Casual Corner sold stirrup pants like crazy, but have put the daisy patterns on the sale rack. The Limited Express offers trapeze dresses in authentic colors, but tones down other 60s styles. 'V see flashback page 16

CD dealer's eviction leads to sound music business By Penny Owen

Staff Writer

Last April, when the landlord gave compact disc and tape dealer Danny Hudman one day to get out, thanking him for the ouster was the last thing Hudman considered. But today, he's grateful.

Danny Hudman, CD Trader. (Photo by Sam Powell)

As a result of the forced move, Hudman's new business, CD Trader, was launched last June at 2204 S. Broadway Extension, a beaten path to the University of

Central Oklahoma. Sales have try. Also, any hard rock and rap climbed about 50 percent every sells well," he said. "But like New Kids on the Block, Debbie Gibson month. The 30-year-old proprietor - music that there's already a glut buys used CDs and tapes in good of, I don't buy." Used CDs will bring between condition and resells them at below market costs. His selection $3.00 and $6.00 cash or more if it spans from country, rock and is a trade-in. Tapes, which Hudheavy metal to alternative, jazz man said are seasonal and harder to sell than CDs, bring between 50 and rap. "It's not like it was 10 years ago cents and $2.00 cash. "Trades are worth more. Say I when people listened to just rock or just country," he said. "It's a lot will give $4.00 cash for a CD. That more diversified, which I think is same CD will get $5.00 in tradein." healthy." CD Trader also specializes in Most tapes sell for $2.99 or $3.99, which is about half off the new imported CDs from Japan, new price. CDs sell for $7.99 to $9.99, or about 35 percent less than they sell new. Three CDs sell for $24.99. All purchases are guaranteed. Hudman does a visual inspection of the tape or CD brought in, then prices it according to demand. "If I need it, I will buy it. People seem to want any country they can find now. I'm always out of coun-

Italy, England and elsewhere. The imports include artists such as Humble Pie, Metallica and April Wine and are produced in English. "The Japanese stuff is always the best quality. It'll always sells eventually, because of that quality." After three months in business, Hudman said he already has an established clientele. "I have a lot of regulars. They started coming back the very next week and I was real glad of that." When asked why some people want to sell their tape or CD collection, Hudman said:

"I don't mean this to be comical, but some will go through a religious experience of one form or another and they'll bring in their whole collection. I bought 33 CDs from a guy this week. He had grown tired of listening to just Christian music so he wanted to change." As in most any business, Hudman said he relies on supply and demand to keep afloat. "I need more alternative and I need blues in the worst way. If someone brought in two or three CDs of blues, it would be gone that day." V

Tuitions climbing nationwide (AP)—Public colleges are hitting students with the biggest tution increases in a decade, giving less scholarship aid to pay for it and offering fewer and more crowded classes. Elementary and secondary school funding largely was protected as legislators struggled this summer to close budget gaps in more than 30 states, but public university campuses were not so lucky. A 50-state survey by The Associated Press shows that, nationwide, state higher education appropriations for fiscal 1992 total an estimated $35.7 billion, virtually unchanged from the $35.5 bil-

lion spent by all 50 states in 1991. Eleven Western and Southern states that weathered the recession better than most are boosting appropriations by at least 5 percent. But 17 others are lowering appropriations, one state's funding remained unchanged, and 21 are raising them by less than 5 percent—not enough, in many cases, to prevent program cuts and higher student fees. In at least 21 states, public college tuitions are going up in double digits. Such increases could thwart campus efforts to diversify student populations ethnically and geographically, warns James Ap-

SHC discontinues AIDS testing

pleberry, president of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities.

AIDS testing is no longer offered as a service in the Student Health Center. According to Susan LaForte, Student Health Center director, all funding awarded to the University of Central Oklahoma by the state Health Department last year was cut. In 1990, the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges approved a $25,000 grant for AIDS counseling, education and testing. "These cutbacks are very disturbing," said Vickie White

Appleberry and others believe the unusually steep tuition increases and lessened state support aren't just the passing consequences of a recession. They view them as the latest signs of a change in the way politicains view public higher education. For the foreseeable future, they predict, governors and legislators will continue to shift the cost of public college education onto families, and away from taxpayers.

Rankin, director of the AIDS Division of the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services. Dr. Dudley Ryan, Student Services vice president, said the AIDS testing funds were cut with little warning with UCO getting only about three days notice. "Based on a survey, we found the hours of 11 p.m to 7 a.m. the Health Center logged less than two dozen cases," Ryan said. New Health Center hours are 7 a.m.- 11 p.m. Monday thru Friday, Saturday 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. and Sunday 1-9 p.m. V

SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING

By Marcia Benedict Staff Writer

Six area churches have combined manpower and resources to establish an ecumenical ministry at the University of Central Oklahoma, said Diane Hilbig, a volunteer from Southern Hills Christian Church. An empty house at 312 East Main Street will be converted to a campus center for students seeking a place to socialize, study or discuss their problems or concerns, Hilbig said. The center, which will be open by mid-September, will be staffed by volunteers from St. Mary's Episcopal Church, St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, Southern Hills and First Christian Churches, Peace Lutheran Church and First Presbyterian Church of Edmond. The center also will be used to counsel students or to refer students to a professional counselor, Hilbig said. "There is a real strong need for support, and we want to be helpful directly or indirectly," she said. The "ecumenical" ministry will not function the same as the Baptist Student Union on campus, but will be for all students regardless of religion, Hilbig said. "'Ecumenical' means there is an understanding that all Christians work together for the kingdom of God, and there is ultimately one faith," she said. "We don't want to label ourselves as any particular religious curriculum. We want to be available for all the students," Hilbig said. "This ministry won't be for the purpose of converting a student from Catholicism to be a Methodist." Volunteers from the different churches will also hold Bible study sessions for interested students, she said. Ecumenical ministries are currently located on campus at the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and East Central University, she said. V

On paper, some obvious similarities exist between the University of Central Oklahoma and Saturday's first opponent, BILL Northwest KRAMER Missouri. Both teams are on a mission to earn much-need respect in 1991. The Bronchos and Bearcats had disappointing seasons last year, despite having quality players on both sides of the ball. The Bronchos were 4-6 overall and 3-4 in the Lone Star Conference (fifth), and Northwest Missouri was 2-8-1 a year ago and 2-7 in the tough Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association (tied for eighth). Both teams lost nearly half their games late in the contest. Although the Bronchos won three games in the closing stages last year, they also lost four in the same fashion. The Bearcats lost five games by a combined 12 points. Both teams have some potential headliners back in the starting line-ups. The Bronchos will rely on a crushing defense and hope their offense can produce. The Bearcats will rely on a dangerous offensive backfield and hope their defense, which returns only 6 starters, can reduce the 25 points pa game average given up in 1990. Saturday's meeting is the first

NCAA rule sends FG's back in time By Bill Kramer Sports Editor More pressure will be placed on the shoulders (and feet) of collegiate kickers this season, thanks to a rule change by the NCAA. The width between uprights on goal posts goes back to 18 feet, six inches after 32 years at 23 feet, four inches. Upon learning that field goals account for nearly 15 percent of all total points each year, the NCAA F000tball Rules Committee determined that field goals have become too large a part of the game. Broncho football coach Gary Howard said the rule will cause coaches to think twice before sending out the field-goal unit. "Moving the goals in will be a lot different and will have a big impact on the game," he said. "You'll see a lot of people doing things differently with the kicking game and we've got to be prepared, both offensively and defensively, for the two-point conversion. Just two years ago, collegiate kickers were stripped by the NCAA of using kicking tees for field-goal attempts. Unsatisfied with kickers' 69 percent accuracy rating despite not using kicking tees, the NCAA has stepped in to again limit the use of the field goal.

Murderer enjoys playing God LEXINGTON, KY. (AP)—Convicted mass murderer Donald Harvey says he killed more than three dozen times bemuse he loved playing God. "I liked the control I had decidin' who lived and who died," the former nursing aide told the Lexington Hearald-Leader. Havey, 39 pleaded guilty four years ago to killing 37 people in Ohio and Kentucky over 17 years. He is serving consecutive life sentences for the killings that began in 1970 when he was a teen-age orderly. He suffocated or poisoned most of his victims. "Well, once I got started I couldn't stop. I just kept going," he said. He maintained his claim some of the slayings were mercy killings. "I would not kill someone for the pleasure of just kill in' or just to get rid of them. The ones in the hospital, there had to be no chance they would ever get better," Harvey said.

Radio program questions birth LOS ANGELES (AP)—Aaron James Lampley was only a few hours old when a local radio station dedicated a second program to the circumstances of his birth. Aaron was born with ectrodactyly, a hereditary condition in which the bones of the feet and hands are fused. His mother, KCBS-TV anchor Bree Walker Lampley, also has the syndrome and knew the child faced a 50 percent chance of inheriting it. KFI-AM had outraged Mrs. Walker Lampley and advocates for the disabled with a July 22 call-in show in which host Jane Norris asked if it was fair for the anchorwoman to give birth when the child had a "very good chance of having a disfiguring desease."

Scientists tuning in to space (AP)—In the next 10 years, a group of scientists plan to do a lot of eavesdropping-in outer space. With the help of dish-shaped radio antenas, these Earthlings hope to hear from other planets. The scientists plan to build a high-power radio receiver that will listen for faint signals from space aliens. The group wants to search about 770 sunlike stars that are up to 80 light years away. Many scientists believe these stars might have planets with life forms on them. The 10-year search also will scan the Milky Way and its 400 billion stars. Some scientists believe there could be life on 10,000 to 100,00 planets in the Milky Way alone. Others doubt there is life on any other planets.

Area Code crisis approaching OAKLAND, Calf. (AP)—Hello! Hello?! "Area code crisis" callin. But don't hang up. There is a solution. After California splits the San Francisco Bay area code Monday the first of three planned divisions in the state's near future—only five unused area codes will be left for the rest of North America. However, a revised area code system adding 640 authorized three-digit area codes to the existing 152 is due in mid-1995, just in time to save the day. "We do have a short-term area code crisis because we're running out, but we're prepared for change," said Cynthia Lucenius, media relations manager for Bellcore, which assists the nation's seven regional telephone companies.

`Trek' stars tour space center CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)—As Mr. Sulu on the starship Enterprise actor George Takei spent a lot of time pushing buttons. The real thing was a bit more frightening. Takei and fellow "Star Trek" stars Nichelle Nichols, better Imown as Lt. Miura, and James Doohan (Mr. Scott) toured Kennedy Space Center on Friday. Nichols and Doohan had visited the center often, but it was Takei's first trip. "It was frightening to be in the control center," he said. "With all of those buttons and blinkers, and to know that if I touched something, something would happen." Mr. Sulu spent much of his time serving as the helsman on the bridge of the Enterprise. "Of course, the buttons didn't do anything anyway," he said.

continued from page 8 "A lot of people bought the trapeze dresses, but you don't see many people wearing them," said Limited Express sales associate MeeMee • Davis. "It's just kind of a trend thing they have in their closet." If logic prevails, the 70s will dictate the next trend, which means reliving the disco era with John Travolta hairstyles and platform shoes. "I've been picking up 70s clothes for the last year or so," said Curtis. "It's not popular yet., but it's the next thing." "I hope not," said Mullins. "I'm not ready for three-piece polyester suits." As they said in the 60s, "If it feels good, do it." V
