Store manager scorned Bookstore employees complain; one quits ynar advocates era of natural gas WASHINGTON (AP)—Rep. Mike Synar told drivers at a mall rally of natural gas-fueled cars, vans and trucks Tuesday they were forerunners of a new era for energy and for Oklahoma.

"The need to improve energy security and the need to clean our air should result in a big, new demand for this clean American product," the Oklahoma Democrat said at the rally, organized by the American Gas Association and the Natural Gas Vehicle Coalition.

Oklahoma and other states already have limited test projects of fleet vehicles that run on compressed natural gas.

"As natural markets expand, Oklahoma and its natural gas industry will benefit," Synar told ralliers. "Jobs, economic development and growth are just a few byproducts we can hope to see from increased use of natural gas."

Criminal charges hit Keating, others

By Erin Mitchell Staff Writer

Several female University Bookstore employees allege severe personality conflicts with the store's male assistant manager.

They claim the problem has been so extreme they "dread going to work everyday in fear of being his scapegoat," said Nina Haas, former employee.

"John Coates is like a little kid throwing a fit," Haas said. "He rants and raves, slams doors and throws things—sometimes in front of customers."

Administration was informed of the problem many times, Haas said. And when they were not supportive, she resigned.

"It is a very ugly situation," Haas said. "I had just had as much as I could take—both physically and mentally.

Tuition hike wanted

Brisch pleas for funding support

By Mark Schlachtenhaufen

LOS ANGELES (AP) Charles H. Keating, former chairman of American Continental Corp. blamed by the government for the nation's biggest savings and loan collapse, was booked on criminal charges today.

"He surrendered shortly before 8:30 and has been booked," said Mike Botula, a spokesman for the district attorney.

It was the first time criminal charges have been filed against Keating, who was indicted by a grand jury on charges related to sales of junk bonds by failed Lincoln Savings & Loan of Irvine, Calif.

Keating has been under investigation in Lincoln's sale of more than $200 million in now-worthless junk bonds to 22,000 investors, many of them elderly buyers. Keating, a Phoenix developer, controlled Lincoln through his American Continental holding company.

Also indicted were Judy Wischer, former president of American Continental, and Ray Fidel and Robin Symes, both former Lincoln presidents.

OKLAHOMA CITY—If Oklahomans want an improved higher education system, they must help pay the bill, said Hans Brisch, higher education chancellor.

That means the possibility of renewed tuition hikes after a one-year layoff in 1990-91, a reality Central State University freshmen and sophomores may be faced with for several years.

Higher tuition prices would lead to a better quality of higher education, Brisch said.

"My plea here is for all of us to work together in order to get the resources we absolutely have to have to get the job done," Brisch said.

Additional revenue from a bond issue would enhance higher education opportunities for Oklahoma students, Brisch said.

State managers have done a good job of managing higher education with available financial resources, but the system suffers from a lack of equipment for hands-on

classroom experience, Brisch said.

Also, the state system has a lower number of faculty than average due to retirement or less enthusiasm for teaching, Brisch said.

The state will be in a competitive market for faculty and resources which will be an added expense.

CSU students questioned by The Vista said they would pay higher tuition prices for an improved higher education system.

However, some had reservations about Please see FUNDING on page 8.

State to recruit minority teachers

By Marie Bigger Staff Writer

A contract was approved by the Oklahoma State Regents of Higher Education, providing $283,928 for a new center designed to recruit minority teachers.

The center is being established as a result of House Bill 1017, which directed the State Board of Education to work with the state regents in recruiting, placing and retaining minority teachers in Oklahoma public

schools, according to Barbara Peiffer, from the regents' office.

Dr. Kermit McMurry, associate vice chancellor for academic affairs, said this center will benefit all students, not just minorities.

"Cross-cultural sensitivity and communication are enhanced by increased contact and familiarity with minorities in professional roles," McMurray said.

Also, minority students need role models from their own ethnic or racial group, McMurray said.

Minorities account for 24 percent of students in Oklahoma public schools, but only 7 percent of the teachers. These figures are consistent with national figures, McMurray said.

The center will encourage colleges and universities to establish recruiting programs for potential minority teachers, McMurry said.

World entering uncharted waters

T

he emerging violent legacy of Saddam Hussein raises a question always asked whenever a despot creates even more trouble for this fractured world: Is he crazy?

Recent television coverage showed an official Iraqi government videotape of a terrified British citizen being "interviewed." When he didn't say what Iraqi officials wanted, an off-camera voice prompted him.

And the world has not yet forgotten a similar videotape, where the smirking Hussein appeared on camera with a frightened boy while describing his hostages as "guests."

It's difficult for the average, well-intentioned human being to understand how such a person can even exist, much less rise to leadership of a nation.

If the world is to gain stability, some method must be found to prevent lunatics from commanding so much power.

One wonders what it is about any culture that allows the ascension of such a dark star.

Even Saddam's staff are not safe from his rapacious aggression. Here is a list of unfortunates who once sided with him, now dead under suspicous circumstances, according Newsweek magazine: Saddam's dead staffers: Adnan Khairallah, defense minister; Riyadh Ibrahim, health minister; Adnan Hamdani, planning minister, Abdel Khaliq al-Sarnarrai, revolutionary command council; and Dhafer Abdel Rashid, military commander.

The Iraqi government seems to be a very unhealthy place to work. Too bad they don't have safety inspectors who could help identify job-related hazards ... like their boss.

Saddam Hussein is a bad man, one of many in world history. The difference now is that our emerging global culture doesn't have the luxury of tolerating such people. There is no elbow room, no buffer zone on this crowded, over-stressed planet.

In ancient days there were many miles of nothing between nations. Such sparsely populated geography curtailed a lot of the damage aggressors could do.

That's a principle any parent understands, like separating children; they can't whack each other if they can't get at each other.

But this such is no longer an option as 5 billion people and the technology of global media have forced proximity of one type or another upon all nations.

We live in a world where 20-century weapons are in the hands of medieval societies, a sociological description from which one need not exclude the United States.

As a species, we are faced with the choice between successful diplomacy or destruction.

Mideast crisis is not War fever' To the Editor:

I

n regard to your editorial in The Vista on Sept. 11, I have a few comments of my own to make.

You used the phrase "They don't remember Vietnam" in discussing the "Fever for War" that you say is gripping America.

My first problem is, do you remember Vietnam? My sources do not have you at 45 years of age.

Over 20 years ago, my father

went to Vietnam. When I was as young as 5, I began to realize that this was in some way bad. At least for a great deal of people. My father has been called everything from crazy to "babykiller."

sadly mistaken. I am simply determined not to have my brother repeat my father's life. I, and others like myself, simply refuse to let one more American soldier overseas think for one second, he does

My younger brother is now a U.S. Marine, and stands a good chance of being in Saudi Arabia soon. A war is the last thing I want.

Student disdains smoking rules To the Editor:

I

n reference to the article in the last edition of the Vista concerning smoking on campus. If the administration is going to ban smoking in all buildings on campus, they should start closer to home.

The students that smoke pay for their education just like everyone else. The employees of the administration building should not be treated any different or given any special privileges.

As a smoker, I try to be consid-

erate of others feelings, but just where does it stop. There are students in some of my classes that chew gum in class, and I find it very annoying, but I don't hear of anyone wanting to ban chewing gum.

While I realize that "Stop Smoking" is the cause of the '90s, I feel that the administration would be better off addressing other issues that concern all students. They could start with parking and then move on to class size and more professors.

It is very upsetting to pay for an

education and then not be able to get to class without having to walk a mile.

Every year we hear the same old tale, we have a parking problem but we never hear about anyone doing anything. While the smoking issue should be addressed there really are other issues that are more important. Instead of building flower beds for the centennial we should be building parking lots for students.

OU, Merit Scholars applauded

T

he University of Oklahoma has a reputation in football for recruiting the nation's best.

Now, it is acquiring the same reputation in academics.

The university has enrolled 95 National Merit Scholars as freshmen for the fall semester, a school record. This places the Norman institution among the nation's top 15 in the number of these outstanding students on campus.

Among the 210 National Merit Scholarship winners in Oklahoma, 64 have enrolled at OU. "The University of Oklahoma is attracting many of the most outstanding students from Oklahoma and other states," said Richard Van Horn, the university's president. "I am pleased that these students recognize the high quality of the OU academic program."

Indeed every Oklahoman should be pleased—and proud.

These young people are loaded with scholarship opportunities.

Seventeen of them are recipients of national or corporate scholarships which would allow them to attend any university in the country.

This gathering of student talent at Norman speaks not only to OU's recruiting ability but to a growing national reputation for academic excellence.

•S&L fraud s uad idle staff says •

WASHINGTON (AP)—On a hot, overcast day last June, as a band played military music at the Jutice Department, President Bush announced the formation of elite platoons that would be dispached to the front lines in his administration's war on savings and loan fraud.

The new "rapid response teams," Bush said, would be "teams of razor-sharp prosecutors and auditors ... striking city by

city, teams that will jump right into the paper chase, teams that will hit the trail while that trail is still hot."

The paper trail of S&L fraud may have cooled a bit since June, but so far, at least, the new teams apparently haven't responded rapidly — or at all.

"There is just no business for these people right now," Justice Department spokesman Doug Tillett said this past week. "They re-

ally haven't done anything at this point."

Tillett said the new teams of hundreds of lawyers and accountants coordinated by the department are intended to be a "resource pool" that can be tapped by S&L enforcers already in the field.

So far, he said, the U.S. attorneys, FBI agents and support staff already investigating S&L fraud in locations around the country haven't needed to call on the special-

ized expertise of the new squads.

"I find it very hard to believe that there is no work for the rapid response teams," said Rep. Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., a member of the House Banking Committee, which is investigating the savings and loan crisis.

"The American public assumed that fast action was forthcoming" after the teams were appointed, he said. "I'm sure they would be shocked to learn that S&L fraud

The fourth language immersion field trip has been scheduled for Sept. 21-23 at Fountainhead Resort at Lake Eufala, according to officials.

The first field trip was sponsored last November and was an incredible success, said Dr. Marcia Hakala, Central State University assistant Spanish professor.

Since then, there has been one Spanish and one German-oriented trip.

"Total immersion builds confidence and skills that cannot be duplicated in a predominately English speaking classroom," Hakala said. "Immersion is also a great first step for students considering foreign study."

This immersion is for intermediate-level Spanish students. Students are not allowed to speak English for the duration of the trip, Hakala said.

Students meet on campus before leaving and sign agreements to speak only Spanish. All participants have taken the agreements very seriously and have not broken their contractual promises, Hakala said.

Because of obvious language barriers, students A:11st rely on entertaining and conversing among themselves. Students play games like La Fuerza Del Saber (The Quest for Knowledge), Superpoly and Monopoly (Spanish versions), and Trivio 6000 (a game like Trivial Pursuit). They also sing Spanish songs, read Spanish books, and even do aerobics to Spanish music, Hakala said.

"This trip is relatively short," Hakala said, "so we will be studying more intensely than we do on the longer trips."

"People are beginning to realize how small the world we share is and students are also learning how valuable a second language can be in today's highly competitive business world," Hakala said, "The main reason for the success of the trips, though, is they are a lot of fun."

Cost of the trip will be $60 and includes food, lodging, transportation from campus and materials.

Interested students should contact Hakala at Ext. 5846.

"There are a great deal of allegations to be investigated," Schumer said. "Every resource possible should be used to its fullest."

But so far, Tillett said local prosecutors are "dealing with things they've seen before."

"They haven't been thrown any curve balls at this point," he said.

Elements assault island Second of two parts

Editors's note: Nearly 30 years ago, a new volcanic island appeared in the North Atlantic, and it has been off-limits to all but scientists ever since.

AP Scientific Editor Paul Raeburn is one of the few people to visit this most recent addition to the Earth's real estate.

SURTSEY, Iceland (AP)—The eruption continued for four years. Two other smaller islands also were formed, but quickly disappeared under the pounding of the waves and the wind.

"The wind erosion is important," said Sveinn Jakobsson, head of the geology department at the Icelandic Museum of Natural History.

"This is a very stormy place."

The assault of the elements is wearing Surtsey down, too. When it was formed, it covered 270 hectares, or about one square mile.

Now it has shrunk to about threefourths of that. It also has slumped from a height of 575 feet to about 490 feet.

"It started to diminish very quickly," said Jakobsson. "Then the rate of erosion went down.

During the past five years, it's something like one hectare per year."

The erosion also is changing Surtsey's composition. Geologists observed that certain elements, including sodium, potassium, calcium, aluminum and silica, were leached out of the ash. Iron and titanium weren't.

The process is just now resulting in the first bits of true soil on the island, Jakobsson said.

Despite the erosion, the island is not likely to disappear as quickly as its two former neighbors, he said.

"What's going to save Surtsey is the tuff," he said. "We are pretty certain this island will last for a long time—probably several hundred years, possibly several thousand years."

Fridriksson made his first discovery a few months after the eruption began.

"I went out there in the spring to see if I could find forms of life," he said, "and I found seeds of sea rocket and lyme grass." When he brought them back to his laboratory, they sprouted.

"That was proof they could survive the transport," he said. He determined that seeds were arriving by way of ocean currents, in the wind and through more unorthodox means.

Some, for example, arrived

clinging to "mermaids' purses" cast-off egg cases of the flat fish called skates. Snow buntings brought seeds from Scotland in their gizzards.

Fridriksson found the first plant on Surtsey, a lone sea rocket, during the first summer.

That was a second milestone.

"It's one thing to get dispersed to an island, and altogether another thing to be a successful colonist," he said.

The next milestone Fridriksson searched for was the appearance of permanent colonists. "There are many that have established themselves as single examples and have not been able to multiply," he said.

Sea sandwort appeared on the island for three or four years before it began producing seeds and became a permanent resident, he said.

Another milestone is just now occurring: The isolated patches of sea sandwort are developing into plant communities.

"Gradually sand drifts into this mat, and it forms a sand dune," Fridriksson explained. Seeds of lyme grass germinate in the sand sheltered by the sandwort.

The black-backed seagull uses the patch for nesting. "It brings in food for the young, and the excrement from the young and the adult bird fertilize the plant," he said.

Central State University Campus Police logged the following incidents from 7 a.m. Sept. 10 to 7 a.m. Sept. 17:

GRAND LARCENY • A student reported that she had chained her bicycle to the fence at the baseball field, and when she returned 17 days later the bike was missing. The bike was recovered and no charges have been filed.

VANDALISM • A person or persons unknown drove a vehicle through the flowerbeds on the west side of Old North damaging plants and sod. The case is under investigation.

POLICE CALLS • Alcohol on state property-2 • Vehicle accident-2 • Indecent Exposure-1 • Sick call reports-3 • Found property report-1 • Motorist Assists-35 • Escort Services-26

SAFTEY TIP: • Make sure your vehicle is locked and all valuables are secured in the trunk. Don't make it easy for thieves.

Interactions like that are the culmination of nearly 30 years of the development of life on Surtsey, Fridriksson said.

* MIDNIGHT * * SNACK 4, DOLLAR

And he expects the island to continue to develop in wondrous, unpredictable ways.

KCSU-TV2 moved to 29

By Karen Adkins Student Writer

KCSU-TV2, Central State University's television station, moved to channel 29 in an effort by Multimedia Cablevision to standardize its systems in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area, said Dr. Jack Deskin, oral communications professor.

"We are at their mercy, if they say we're going to move you, they have a right to," Deskin said.

KCSU-TV2 has grown over the

years to become known as "channel 2" and the transition to 29 has

been hard on the station, Deskin said.

The television station is the university's hands-on teaching facility for broadcast journalism majors.

Multimedia officials told Deskin several years ago they were doing some realignment, but Deskin said he thought it would never happen.

Realignment involves the unification of 17 cable systems so one channel is designated to serve

each network for the entire metro area, Deskin said.

"I didn't have it built into the budget. Nor was there money for us to do a big advertising campaign to make viewers aware of this, so it's been difficult," Deskin said.

Deskin said he hopes students in his broadcast promotions class will come up with ideas for promoting KCSU-TV as one of their projects.

The station does not want to become known as "Channel 29," like "Channel 2". Deskin said.

Student group to help writers

By Matt Fithian Student Writer Serving both Central State University and the community, the Creative Studies Writers Institute is a new student association that helps anyone wanting to enhance their writing skills.

"We welcome anyone who wants to write or learn about writing," said Julie Ann Johnson, president of the club and CSU graduate student. "The whole purpose of the club is to help support creative writing."

Founded in 1989 by less than 20 students to help promote writing skills, membership now includes

Eight picked for two-year experiment ORACLE, Ariz. (AP)—Eight environmental pioneers were named Wednesday to spend two years with just each other—and 3,800 varieties of plants and animals—inside a glass-and-steel dome trying to duplicate earth's ecosystem.

Among the crew are a 66-yearold gerontologist, an electrical engineer, a marine biologist and a botanist. They are two Britons, a Belgian, a German and four Americans.

All the "biospherians" have worked together for at least three years on the Biosphere II project, an attempt to copy the planet's natural environment inside a 24-acre closed, self-sustaining system.

The planet's natural environment is designated Biosphere I. "I'm working five years toward this aim of two-year closure, and the closer the day comes, the more excited I get," said crew leader Bernd Zabel, a 41-year-old German.

As a laboratory for showing ways to solve environmental problems such as pollution, the privately funded biosphere could become a moneymaking venture, scientists have said. It also is a prototype for sustaining life in space.

Inside the sealed geodesic frame, all air, water, food and wastes will be regenerated and recycled.

Only electricity will link its ecological system with the outside. Computers and telephones will provide communications with mission control and the rest of the world.

50 to 60 members, Johnson said.

The institute serves as an interface between students and members of the community who are interested in learning about different types of literature, the publishing world and writing, Johnson said.

"We have a lot of people in the club who are not professional writers but do something else for a living, including some who are lawyers and accountants," she said.

Membership includes graduate students, undergraduates and alumni. Many club members are not students, but have enrolled in writing classes at CSU after joining the association, Johnson said.

Goals of the institute include sponsoring workshops given by

successful writers, publishers and editors.

"One of the reasons the institute exists is that we try to bring in people that the school can not afford to bring in," Johnson said.

Lillard said senators should plan their proposals before submitting them to the senate.

"For example, if only two senators live on campus, I would probably disapprove a proposal to extend visitation hours in the residence halls, since the majority approving it are not representative of those affected by the proposal,"

According to Johnson, the institute currently is not a formally recognized campus association, but members hope to gain administrative approval during the fall semester.

Lillard advocates planning

Responsibilities of student senate members and the researching of proposals were among topics addressed Monday by Central State University President Bill Lillard at the Student Association Senate meeting.

Lillard said.

Lillard also mentioned media utilization, legislation processes and answered senators' questions about student concerns such as parking problems.

Senators approved a proposal to pay the Nigh Institute $270 to reserve a table for six student senators at each banquet this year.

• Splicers win two improve to 14-2

By Bill Kramer Sports Editor Improving to 14-2, the Central State University volleyball team won all six games in matches with Bethel College, Kan., and Southern Nazarene University Tuesday in the Broncho Field House.

The Lady Bronchos are off to their best start ever after defeating Bethel 15-6, 15-7, 15-4 and Southern Nazarene 15-9, 15-7, 15-2.

"I think we're starting to come together," said Head Coach Mark Herrin. "We're really playing like a team."

CSU was led in the opening match by 5-7 Fort Worth, Texas, junior Shawna Clark's 27 assists and 5-10 Leavenworth, Kan., junior Heather Mazeitis' seven kills.

Amy Parten and Heather Devine, a 5-10 junior from Edmond, each recorded six kills as well for the Lady Bronchos.

In the second match, the Lady Bronchos were led by 5-8 Azle, Texas, sophomore Parten's 15 kills and 30 assists by Clark.

Fort Worth, Texas, sophomore Shannon Yzquierdo recorded four service aces for the Lady Bronchos and also had six digs.

Devine had nine kills and teammate Aimee Russell, a 6-1 junior out of Lockwood, Mo., recorded six.

CSU plays its next home match Friday, playing host to Abilene Christian Universtiy in the first Lone Star Conference match-up of the year at 7 p.m. in Broncho Field House.

Track teams garner 1st-ever meet sweep

By David LoBaugh Student Writer For the first time since their inception, Central State University mens' and womens' cross country teams placed first in the same meet in the Oklahoma Christian Invitational Saturday.

CSU scored 42 points in the mens' competition, led by a first-place finish from junior Kyle Skartwed.

Other top 10 finishers included Bill Uptergrove, fourth, Danny Walker, seventh, and Doyle Arbuthnot, ninth.

"Danny Walker and Calvin Acothley played an important part in the victory after Brian Calloway and Kenny Lemons dropped out of the race with injuries," Parent said.

The Lady Bronchos, who finished with 32 points, had five runners place in the top 13.

Anita Stufflebeam ended the day in second-place, followed by Melissa Jones in fourth, Roxie Brown in fifth, Jody Richardson in eighth and Melanie Mills, finishing 13th.

"I felt all our women ran exceptionally well and won this meet as a team," Parent said.

Both teams travel to Joplin, Mo., to the Missouri Southern Invitational at 9 a.m. Saturday.

Detroit suburb opens midnight high school SOUTHGATE, Mich.

(AP)—The new adult education classes in this Detroit suburb start bright and early in the morning— right after Johnny Carson's monologue.

In a dream come true for upwardly mobile insomniacs, the Southgate School District has begun to schedule math, science, English and social studies classes from midnight to 2 a.m. for work-

"We don't want any reason for someone being unable to come back to school," said Stan Mazur, director of adult and community education for Southgate schools.

According to Dr. Kenneth Elsner, college of education dean, the grant was awarded through Northwestern Oklahoma State University in Alva, and this is the first time such a scholarship has been

offered to CSU. Scholarships will be applied toward tuition this semester and will be given to students pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree.

The special education program and the emotionally disturbed education program will receive three $150 scholarships each.
