Faculty senate votes on proposals today By Tim Earley

Student Writer Student evaluation of instruction, salary differential between professors and assistant professors, and position description for assistant deans are some of the items to be discussed in the Faculty Senate meeting today. The first meeting of the 1988-89 CSU Faculty Senate will be held at 2:40 p.m. in the Council Room at the University Center according to Dr. Fred Grosz, associate professor of chemistry and president of the Central State University Faculty Senate. An election is also scheduled to choose a new Reporter/Historian. Bob Hays, who had held the position, left the university during the summer. A proposal to revise the student evaluation of instruction, including the means that the document is administered to the students, the interpretation of the data, uses of the data and slight changes in the document itself, will be discussed. The Senate will also work to formulate a definitive position description and selection process for assistant dean positions. The proposal calling for a larger salary differential between professors and assistant professors will be studied further during this meeting. This proposal has already been tabled twice in two meetings, Grosz said. Also, Grosz will present to the Senate a copy of the constitution for the Higher Education Faculty Association. The senate began considering joining HEFA last

spring. CSU must approve the constitution before it can become a member of the HEFA. HEFA is a recently formed organization of faculty senates representing each of the higher education institutions in Oklahoma. The Faculty Senate will discuss the finer points of the constitution before deciding to join the organization. In related news, CSU President Bill Lillard took action on several Senate proposals during summer break. The following is a list of the proposals and the action taken: • Proposal 87-1 Emergency Individual Class Withdrawal—Approved; • Proposal 87-6 Rescheduled Salary Payment—Not Approved; • Proposal 87-10 Preferred Provider Health Care Provisions—Not Approved; • Proposal 87-12 Minimum Scholarship Guidelines—remanded to Senate for further study; • Proposal 87-15 Reform of Senate Electoral Procedures—Approved; • Proposal 87-16 Period For Tenure—remanded to Senate for further study; • Proposal 87-22 Procedures for Selection of Department Chairpersons—Approved; • Proposal 87-23 Pacific Fidelity Insurance Premium Payroll Deduction—Not Approved; • Proposal 87-24 Faculty Status of Professional Librarians (eligibility for tenure)—Not Approved. The Faculty Senate meets the second Tuesday of each month during the school year.

Centennial events planned By Martha Giglio

Editor The 1990-91 Central State University school year will mark the university's centennial, and a number of events are being planned by the CSU Centennial Coordinating Committee to celebrate the school's founding. CSU was founded Dec. 25, 1890, as the Territorial Normal School by the Oklahoma Territorial Legislature. "A Sept. 30 meeting is planned for some off-campus people, alumni and friends," said John

Wendell Simmons Jr., chairman of the committee. Simmons was graduated in 1953, and his father, John Wendell Simmons, Sr., a 1927 CSU graduate, chaired the 50th anniversary celebration at CSU. Simmons said planning began in March, and special meetings were held this summer. Specifics will be announced as plans are developed, he said. According to Simmons, the commission is multi-tiered. Sub-divisions of the groups have formed committees and in-

elude marketing, financial and special events. Other committees which have expressed special interest will be organized, he said. Such committee projects as beautification will be begin this fall. "There has been quite a lot of interest in the Centennial," Simmons said. "We hope to see it become a rallying point so current and former students, residents of Edmond and governmental leaders will observe the past, plan for the future and help CSU Please see Centennial on page 8.

Police continuing inquiry By Valli Covert

Associate Editor Police are still investigating the death of a 27-day-old baby who was discovered battered and unconscious last week in Central State University's married-student housing. Corey Carter, of Broncho II Apartments, 600 N. Chowning, sustained two broken collarbones, a broken right tibia, a swollen brain and a skull fracture. He died shortly after being taken to Ed-

mond Memorial Hospital, Aug. 30. Police are waiting to get results back from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation lab on some items that were confiscated out of the apartment, CSU Police Chief Bob Roberts said. He did not specify what those items were. "There are still some people we need to talk to," Roberts said. Police are trying to find out if

the child was cared for by anyone besides the parents, he said. The father, a 24-year-old CSU student, has been interviewed and given a lie detector test. The results of the test were not available. The mother, who is 19 years old, has not been questioned yet, Roberts said. The names of the parents have not been released. No charges have been filed.

Honors program offered By Larry Floyd

Student Writer A new honors program should offer some challenging courses for selected students at Central State University this fall, said Dr. Clif' Warren, dean of the College of Liberal Arts. The honors courses do not require more work than regular sections of the same courses, but they offer speakers, tours and other special activities not offered by the regular sections. Students in the program are re-

quired to have special permission or a minimum ACT score of 22 to enroll in the honors courses. The maximum class size is 25 students. Honors course instructors serve as mentors for the students by guiding students into areas of special interest and helping them choose their majors, Warren said. Honors courses are available this fall only in the College of Liberal Arts, with at least one honors course in each of the college's ten departments. The

honors program has begun with lower-level honors courses and will add upper-level courses as the program becomes more established. Ten honors courses will be added each year until 100 courses are available throughout the colleges at CSU, Warren said. Efforts were made several years ago to establish an honors program at'CSU. The program never became school-wide, however, and it was eventually dropped.

Viewpoints American press: morally correct? By Valli Covert Associate Editor Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. The First Ammendment. The press in America, is it a watchdog, or is it nothing more than a tawdry vehicle to use and abuse? Does it give the readers the news, or is it nothing more than a way to advertise certain businesses for free?

Commentary "Aspiring to be 'heralds' or `record' that serves truth and democracy, news organs have also been 'the advertising' concerned with 'the commercial appeal' serving the owners' profits and the values of the business or political elite," David Moberg wrote in an article about television journalism that appeared in In These Times (April 1-7, 1987). "And now changes in the economics and regulation of the industry threaten to make TV news more tawdry and less honorable," he wrote.

Not long ago, an Oklahoma City area television station did a feature "news" story about women with breast cancer. Throughout the days and nights this week-long special aired, a viewer could not watch a show, let alone the "news" without seeing or hearing a message about how to call and find out if you are "at risk" for developing breast cancer. It is imperative to note that people should be encouraged to find out if they are candidates for developing any type of cancer. But when the news feature continues on night after night and the only hospital named in the story has numerous commercials during that week, more than can be recalled during any previous or succeeding months, is this news? Or is it nothing more than free advertising? Other forms of abuse are clear in "news" articles. Newspapers in the United States are supposed to print news, not be press release newspapers. Some newpapers print articles about businesses that will bring jobs to a community. That is good news, but when the article reads as a press release would, it is nothing but a degradation to quality newspapers. Ethically there is nothing wrong with the way some newspapers print press releases without even the appearance of trying to rewrite them, but is it morally right? Quality newspapers are the ones who sell advertising, print the news, and do not let community leaders, editors or publishers censor the newspapers' right to print unfavorable news about that community. There is nothing wrong with an article or picture of a new business that is bringing jobs to a community, or a service that will help a community, especially in a depressed economy, but, quality newspapers do not have to give away advertising — they sell it. This is not the only time this type of journalism has been practiced. Numerous other times large feature articles are printed and if the reader will scan the newspaper, he will see a large advertisment somewhere in the paper. This type of journalism is practiced at many newspapers in many states. Why? Maybe the editor or publisher is in fear of reprisal from local authorities, therefore he will not allow the unfavorable news to be printed and will only print the good news. One observer is known to have said that the day the press prints nothing but the "good news," we as Americans will be in trouble because then the government will control everything and there will be no watchdog. The framers of our constitution saw that the press had a right to print both favorable and unfavorable news. Thus, the First Arnmendment.

Bovines to browse books? By Martha Giglio Editor I was walking across campus the other afternoon and I bumped into Snerd Chesterson, my studious friend. "How are you doing?" he asked, as he pushed his three-inchthick glasses against his face and adjusted his heavy load of books. "Not bad, Snerd. How are you?"

Commentary "Great. I'm on my way to the Library to get some more books. I finished these 10 this week. When are we going to get those 5,500 art books that man bequethed to the Library? I can't wait to check them out." "Gee, I don't know, Snerd," I answered. "Soon, I think. They're coming from New York." "Yeah, I know," said Snerd. "What sort of art books are they, anyway?" "I'm not sure, but I hope they've got some with pictures of cows." "Cows? That's weird, why

cows?" "Well, you remember what happened to those extra books the Library got rid of a few years ago, don't you?" "No, I wasn't around then." "That's right. Well, Snerd, the Library had more books than they had room for, and a lot of them were trashed. Some ended up in dumpsters. Some were used by a guy for landfill in a pasture. So, if that happens to these books, maybe a cow could get some enjoyment out of them." "Gosh, that would be terrible. Can't anything be done?" "Well, maybe the Library needs to expand. I hear there are books piled in the basement already, and there's no room to shelve them. More were thrown out this summer." "You're kidding! Maybe that's why I can't find books on the recommended lists my professors gave me. I thought maybe they'd been stolen." "I'm afraid not. A lot have simply been discarded." "That's terrible! Some of them are out of print!" "That's true." "But these art books. A

librarian from the University of Pennsylvania said they were priceless. Can't something be done to make sure they don't get trashed?" "I'm sure the Library plans to make special arrangements." "I hope so. They sound like a real treasure." "Yes, they are Snerd." "It reminds me of the Smithsonian Institution. They've got a huge collection of things they can't display due to lack of space, such as the Enola Gay, the B-29 that dropped the atomic bombs on Japan. There's no room to exhibit it, and it's been there for 39 years." "Yes. It sounds as if CSU is in good company. I hope it doesn't take that long for these art books to be displayed." "Man, so do I. Do you suppose they can build a fifth floor on the Library?" "I don't know, Snerd. That certainly would help." "But what if they decide to get rid of a lot of good books in the meanwhile? How will we know, so we can save them?" "Hang around the dumpsters, Snerd."

Fall faculty total higher than in past five years

Sid and Nancy HZ To whit Fort. THE I NSTRUC roK TO

By Becky Weigand and Rhonda Shalaby The faculty total at Central State University for the 1988 fall semester is higher than it has been for the last five years, and "we're very proud of it," said Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president for academic affairs. The Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges approved all of the personnel and budgetary recommendations for the 37 new faculty, according to Jacob. They approved seven faculty members this month; 18 faculty members and a dean of the college of math and science, Dr. G. Kay Owens; in July and ten faculty members and two coaches in June. "Some of these members were

replacements for retirees; however, this is the first time in the last five years that we filled vacancies and also added to the total," said Jacob. The legislature approved a retirement "window" program last fall to make retirement more advantageous for all state employees, so 19 faculty members retired in December. Usually, the faculty total decreases slightly in May, when most retirements occur. "We've been a little more fortunate than other institutions in the state as far as keeping faculty; we've never really had a problem with attracting and maintaining faculty because of our location and other factors."

Sports Bronchos to face Savages in opener By Mark Finley Sports Editor With high hopes and aspirations, the Bronchos of Central State University make their 1988 gridiron debut this Saturday, as they take on the Savages of Southeastern Oklahoma State University in a cross-state matchup. Southeastern, under third-year head coach Jon Lantz, will be a much improved team from a year ago. The Savages return 16 starters from a team that finished 4-5-2, including a season-ending 28-24 loss to the Bronchos. One of those starters returning for SOSU is District Nine's player of the year, quarterback Greg Neece, who was also named NAIA All-America honorable mention. Neece, a senior from Edmond, threw for 1,931 yards and 12 touchdowns and rushed for an additional 378 yards and a team-leading seven touchdowns, as he finshed the year ranked seventh in the nation in total offense. Broncho head coach Gary Howard said he believes the key to victory will be whether or not they can control Neece. "Neece will be hard to stop," said Howard. "The best way to

keep him from getting out of control is by letting him on the field as little as possible. Our offense is going to have to control the ball as much as possible and avoid costly mistakes and turnovers. If we can accomplish this we should be in good shape to win the ball game." The offensive line for SOSU returns entirely in tact from 1987, which could mean trouble for the Broncho defense if they are going to stop Neece. Howard said he believes that his defensive front will have to play an outstanding game. "Our line needs to keep him in the pocket and apply a lot of pressure," said Howard. "If he escapes the pressure and starts scrambling around we could be in for a long night." Another All-America honorable mention player returning is wide receiver Jim Bell. Bell led the Savages with 43 receptions, averaging 17 yards a catch and scored six touchdowns. Bell, like Neece, is a senior from Edmond. "Bell is an outstanding receiver," Howard said. "Bell and Neece have been playing together since high school, so that makes it even tougher because

they know each other so well. Our secondary will have to play headsup on every play if we want to stop them." The backfield looks solid with the return of junior Oscar Wright and sophomore Corey Ransom. These two combined for seven touchdowns and almost 800 yards on the ground last year and with so much experience returning on the line, they should improve on these stats in 1988. "They have some good runners and we can't take them lightly either," said Howard. On defense, the Savages are led by Elmar Perry at defensive end. Perry was an All-District player from a year ago. In all, the defense returns six starters off a team that gave up an average of 260 yards per game. "Again, for us to win we'll have to control the ball offensively and avoid stupid mistakes," said Howard. "Defensively, we have to stop the big play from Neece and control the ground game." Kick-off is slated for 7 p.m. in Durant. The Bronchos will open the home season on October 1 against East Texas State.

Cross-country teams aear ua for season by Mark Finley

Sports Editor Entering his 10th season, Central State University cross-country head coach Paul Parent said he is very confident his men's team will be a definite factor in the race for the District Nine title. "I feel very good about this

year's squad," said Parent. "They entered the school year already in pretty good shape and immediately started working out." Parent said he feels he has a strong team because of a good blend of experience and some talented youth.

"We have a good mix this year of upperclassmen and freshmen with none of them being above all the rest," said Parent. "We have about 10 runners who could place very high at any meet, which only helps the team aspect. Crosscountry is more team-oriented than track and field, so we try to

instill this attitude into our runners." Steve Heffernan returns after finishing second in District Nine a year ago. Heffernan, a senior out of Jenks, was an academic AllAmerican last year. "Steve will probably be one of the favorites to win district this

Sean Smith, who also gained academic All-American honors last year, returns as well. Smith is a Tulsa senior and should provide added leadership, according to Parent. Among those expected to rank high on this year's team are a group of junior college transfers. Dwayne Antonio and Marty Pretends Eagle, both juniors, come to CSU from Haskell Junior College in Kansas. Peterson Chee is a junior out of Arizona Central Junior 'College, while Bill Uptergrove, also a junior, comes from South Plains Junior College in Texas. Rounding out the team is a group of underclassmen that Parent believes could pull out a surprise or two during the season. Heading this group are sophomores Leander Eckiwaudah of Anadarko and Jaime Esteban of Badajoz, Spain. According to Parent, both should provide added depth. "We feel that with our balance we should be one of the favorites in district along with Oklahoma Christian College and Oklahoma Baptist University," said Parent. On the women's side, which is entering only its second year of competition, Parent said he believes his squad could surprise a lot of people. "We have the basis for a very good team," Parent said. "We have about six girls who look very strong at this time." Kevette Smargiassi looks to be the strongest of the six. Smargiassi is a junior college transfer from Washington state. "Kevette, at the moment, is probably my top runner because of her experience," Parent said. "She should provide the leadership needed since we don't have any seniors." The other five runners should not be over-looked, according to Parent. Elizabeth Wabaunsee, a junior from Haskell Junior College, and Amber Tilley, a junior from Enid, will give added experience. Sophomores Terri Bell of Hennessey, Kelly Hoy of Davis and Paula Sawyer of Idabel, along with Stacy Bludworth, a freshman from Mustang, should be strong contenders as the district meet draws near. Both squads open the season this Saturday in Stillwater at the Oklahoma State Invitational. WORK FOR YOURSELF

Balloons float at CSU By Valhi Covert Associate Editor "It is a great family sport, something we can do all year long," said Nancy Vale of Tulsa, owner of the hot air balloon "High Horse" that flew with 14 other balloons during the Second Annual Edmond Hot Air Balloon Festival this weekend. The balloons were to take off from Central State University, south of the Liberal Arts building, Saturday night and Sunday morning, with a rain date set for Monday morning. Winds stronger than five miles per hour kept all but two balloons on the ground Sunday. Conditions improved on Monday and 15 of the 16 balloons were able to lift-off at 7:05 a.m., said Laynie

Harrod of the Edmond Parks and Recreation Department. The balloons landed at Hefner Road east of the Broadway Extension. Participants came from Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, she said. The festival is held to raise money for equipment at area parks. Richard Vale, Nancy's husband, is a certified private pilot for airborne helium and hot air balloons. Taking his first ride at the Albuquerque (N.M.) Balloon Festival in 1985 was how he got started in ballooning, he said. Albuquerque's festival is known as the largest in the world, with almost 500 balloons taking off in waves from the launch sight just north of Albuquerque. Since then, Vale has been a

member of a "chase crew" at Albuquerque's festival and flown in numerous events in the Oklahoma area. A chase crew follows the balloon in a vehicle, and when the balloon lands, assists the pilot in deflating the balloon and packing it up. Even though he is a pilot for balloons, Vale said he is scared to fly in airplanes. Ballooning is a hazardous sport, but there were only three major accidents last year, he said. CSU has a beautiful area to launch from, he said. Wide open spaces and minimal obstructions make it easy to take off from. The Vales are members of the Tulsa Cloud Dancers Balloon Club, the only balloon club in Oklahoma.

realize they have a greater future." Assisting Simmons as vicechairman is Edmond resident Lowell Thompson, class of 1950.
