32 candidates to fill Student Senate ballot By Susan Green Editor

When students vote tomorrow in the Student Senate election, 32 candidates names will be on the ballot. Glen Kilgour, election committee chairman said this is the largest slate of candidates who have filed for Senate ever. "Thirty-eight candidates expressed interest and attended the mandatory meeting, last Wednesday. Friday, 32 had filed petitions and attended the meeting to go over campaign guidelines," Kilgour said. Only those students in the College of Business, Liberal Arts and Math and Science will be voting in the election. There

was no competition in the College of Education and Special Arts and Sciences, because those who applied, were less than or equaled the number of openings. Of the 22 positions open, the breakdown shows: 11 candidates for five openings in the College of Business, 12 candidates for five in Liberal Arts, one for five in Education, six for four in Math and Sciences and two for three in Special Arts and Sciences. "I think last year, from the results of a Student Senate survey, we helped students be introduced to other activities besides dances. I think this encourages the students to apply and to check out the Student Senate. We've got a better distribution of recipients," Kilgour said.

"In the last three years, the largest voter turnout was less than four percent, which is less than 500 voters. If I could double this, I'd be happy." Kilgour said, in the past when they have taken bills to the administration, they have thrown in the Senate's face that with the representation they have had so far, they are not really representing the Student Body. "If more students vote for representatives to represent them, it would better our program," he said." The polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. on the first floor of the University Center. In the past, polls were located throughout the campus. This has been

eliminated because students don't know who the students in their College are, Kilgour said. Candidates are able to be in the voting area, only to vote. They are not allowed to campaign on this floor but they may have posters 30 feet from the ballot location. "I hope for this election, students will participate and elect well-respected students in their College, so we can move ahead to impprove the needs of students at CSU," Kilgour said. Election results will be posted on the 4th floor of the University Center on the Senate office door, Wednesday night after the election concludes.

Entrepreneurs travel to Kansas conference By Jane Meese Student Writer

The CSU chapter of the Association of Collegiate Entrepreneurs, will travel to Wichita State University Saturday, for the "Venture into Success" conference. CSU students will have a chance to hear keynote speakers at the conference, who represent some of the Midwest's most successful entrepreneurs. Budding young entrepreneurs at CSU will also have the opportunity to participate in "breakout sessions" which will include such topics as "Advantages of Direct Mail," "How to Write a Business Plan," "Financing a New Business," "Stress Management ," "Women in Entrepreneurship" and "Mentors for Success." "In this day and age, students are finding that perhaps it is better to develop a business plan instead of a resume," said CSU ACE member Deborah Moseley.

According to Moseley, the ACE chapter will help the students who wish to start their own business. She said ACE provides support for people engaged in entrepreneurial pursuits. "ACE, both nationally and here at CSU, provides a forum for the exchange of information and ideas." said Moseley. "This network of resources translates thoughts into action and turns ideas into profitable realities. The ACE objective is to link the university and the community in fostering this entrepreneurial spirit." The cost of the conference is $25. The CSU ACE chapter has arranged for transportation to Wichita State on Saturday. Vans will leave CSU at 5:15 a.m. and should return to campus • about 8:30 p.m. Any student interested in accompanying the ACE group to Wichita State Saturday or anyone interested in joining the CSU chapter, should call Moseley, 340-0167.

Cadets awarded for summer performances By Susan Green Editor

Cadet Mark Hinds, the fall ROTC batallion commander, was awarded the Alvin Freiberger Memorial Saber Award at a recent awards ceremony, honoring several students for their performance last summer. Hinds received the award for his 'most outstanding' performance at the ROTC avanced camp at Ft. Riley, Kansas. Hinds is one of ten students who were recognized for their performance at Camp Warrior, a sixweek advanced camp that all college army ROTC cadets attend. Others include cadets Mike Maples, Terry Boyd, Cindy Dulohery, Clifton Johnston, Kevin Gray, George Rodericks, David Griffith, Charles Booze and Kenny Ott.

Six cadets were recognized for attending Camp Challenge at Ft. Knox, Kentucky, which is required for direct admission into advanced camp. These include: Regina Baker, Robert McClarey, John Mayo, Laura Hanna, Tatajana Witzmann and Gary Dirickson. "It's traditional each September to have an awards ceremony to honor the performance of cadets who attended summer camp," Military Science Instructor Lt. Col. Terry May said. Other students were recognized in the areas of physical fitness, scholarships, completion of Airborne school and Distinguished military performace. The ROTC scholarship includes tuition, fees, books and $1 thousand for three years. Those receiv-

ing the scholarship were Timothy Smith from Oklahoma Christian College, and Michael Fitzgibson and Anthony Kluge from CSU. Dulohany received the 300 Club award, for receiving the maximum score on the Army physical fitness test. Dolohany was the only female to take the test. Five students were recognized for completing Army Airborne School in Ft. Benning, Georgia. May said these students are now qualified as army paratroopers. These include: Hinds, Griffith, Rodericks, Gray and Donald Novey. Those who were recognized as Distinguished military students were Hinds, Maples, Dulohery, Johnston and Ott. "This is particularly competitive, because only the top third of Military 4 can be

designated. The award is based on performance in the university, the ROTC program and performance at Camp Warrior," May said. Dr. James Caster, professor of political science was also awarded. He received a letter of appreciation for his 14 years of teaching military history to senior cadets. Brigadier general Myrna Williamson, commading general of the 3rd ROTC region, presented the letter to Caster. The Edmond Police Department also received recognition for their continued support of the ROTC program. "They allow us access to their training range in repelling and markmanship, " May said. Col. Ronald Pruitt, commander of the 1st Brigade, 3rd ROTC region, presented the student awards.

By Susan Green Editor You would think I'd learn after three tickets, not to park in the meter spaces or if I park there, to continuously put money in the slot. However, when you are pressed for time in the morning and work in the afternoon like I do, it's convenient to park in the meter spaces and you forget to add money.

What I'd like to know, is where the money goes that we fork into these meters. Furthermore, why do we even have them? We already pay for parking when we pay to go to college. Why should we pay more to park a little closer to the building?

The meters are enforced from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday. I think its a little unfair that students enrolled in evening classes are not penalized for parking there without paying. What's enforced for one should be enforced for all.

If the meters are for visitor parking, I can understand why they are there. However, there is no sign or any indication that the meters are for visitors. Besides, how many visitors are going to visit the university? Not as many as there are meters for, I'm sure. Maybe the meters should be removed and let students park near the buildings (Communications, Administration, Business, etc.) at a first come, first serve basis. It costs enough to go to school without paying a meter or paying the ticket you get for not paying the meter.

Sports, can society do without? By Mary Butler Sports editor "Sport is the very fiber of all we stand for. It keeps our spirits alive." Franklin Roosevelt, thirty-second President of the United States. The very fiber of all we stand for. Roosevelt's quote provides quite a contrast from sportswriter Jimmy Cannon's comment that, "Sports is the toy department of life." So, let's give the President a little credibility. Let's see how this institution of fun and games could possibly mean so much to society. We'll start with sport's qualities of entertainment. Neil Simon, a playwright and screenwriter sums this up. "Sports is the only entertainment

where, no matter how many times you go back, you never know the ending," he said. Sports also lends itself to the our country's capitalistic values. Roy Hofheinz, owner of the Houston Astros and the man responsible for building the $37 million Astrodome, said "I've got a tenthousand-dollar-a-day overhead here, and to treat sport like sport, is to fail to understand the seriousness of your business." And opportunity? Sportscaster Keith Jackson handles this one, "Sports, more than any other activity, has proven that a truly democratic society owes the individual nothing more than opportunity." Logic? Certainly sportsmen have

proven they can be logical. Lou Holtz, Arkansas football coach provides a little. "You never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with them," he said. Perhaps Roosevelt was looking at sports from a military perspective. General Douglas MacArthur, a U.S. Army five-star general wrote, Upon the fields of friendly strife, Are sown the seeds, That, upon other fields, on other day, will bare the fruits of victory. Atlanta Braves and Hawks owner Ted Turner takes it a little further. "Sports is like a war without the killing," said Turner. If that's the case, anyway you look at it, we're fortunate to have sport in our society. It keeps our spirits alive.

Spring ceremony unfair for fall graduates To the editor: I am happy to see the issue of a fall ceremony has been brought to everyones attenion. Is it fair to fall graduates, requiring them to come back in May for the ceremony? I don't think so. If there is a ceremony especially for summer graduates, there should be one for fall graduates also. In the article "University substitutes meal for graduation," in the Aug. 27 edition of The Vista, Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president of academic affairs said one reason for there not being a fall

ceremony, is because the number of graduates is less that those graduating in May. However, last summers graduation had 423 graduates and they got a ceremony. Jacob said in the article that the fall graduates will range from five to 600 people. If my math is correct, it looks to me like the number of fall graduates is higher than that of the summer, therefore we should also get a ceremony. Even if this ceremony has to take place inside, that is fine. If a fall ceremony took place, it would cut down on the size of the spring ceremony, which I understand

from recent graduates, is crowded and mass confusion. If the number of graduates per ceremony is decreased, then the university would be able to announce the names of these graduates, which is not done in the spring ceremonies, because of too many people. Its really sad, when you spend all the time, money and effort to get through a degree program, your name is not announced . This may seem petty to some, but when I finish I want to hear my name called out as a graduate. Barry Anderson

News: World, state and local U.S. accused of fostering killing

The death of a leftist political activist in the Philippines has prompted charges that the U.S. may have been involved. Leandro Alejandro was the secretary-general of the New Patriotic Alliance before he was killed Saturday. Hundreds of people attended a memorial service Sunday at the University of the Philippines where Alejandro had been a student leader. The National Democratic Front, a communist dominated organization, said in a statement that Alejandro's death was part of a plot by the "U.S.-Aquino regime." President Corazon Aquino's brother-in-law said he fears the death of Alejandro will drive leftist movement participants underground into the more marxist movements.

Reagan announces arms deal

President Reagan announced Friday that he and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev are committed to signing a treaty limiting arms between the U.S. and Soviet Union during the next summit meeting, scheduled for later this year. Despite this message, the two countries still have to work the details out in two areas. First, there are differences over the timetable for withdrawal of intermediate range missiles covered, and also a set of rules for verification remains to be worked out in the deal. Negotiators are set to go back to Geneva to work the details out in October. The agreement will affect over 1,000 missiles. Six hundred and eighty belong to the Soviets, while 332 belong to the U.S.

Bork's approval still questioned

Three Democrats and one Republican are slated to decide whether Robert H. Bork will go on to the Senate confirmation bouts. The Senate Judiciary Committee has been hearing testimony from Bork for five days. Currently, ten senators on the panel have decided which way they will vote. Five Democrats oppose, and five Republicans support. Opponents of the Bork nomination hope the committee unfavorably recommends Bork for nomination. It is hoped by the opponents that such a recommendation would produce a snowballing effect in the Senate, keeping Bork off the U.S. Supreme Court.

Weather causes problem at fair

One man broke his leg and eight other people were slightly injured Sunday afternoon, when a tent at the State Fair collapsed during high winds. The winds were caused by thunderstorms which built up over the northwest half of the state Sunday afternoon. Several power lines around the metropolitan area were reported snapped by the storms, but fire department officials reported no major damage. An act which had been scheduled to perform during the approximate time when the tent collapsed had just been cancelled. Witnesses said some members of the audience were struck by the main pole of the tent when it was disloged by the winds. Others were reportedly struck by cable which was being used to support the tarp.

Toxic fish found in Arcadia lake

Channel catfish in Lake Arcadia have been found to contain unusually high levels of chlordane, a chemical which has been restricted for many years. The Oklahoma State Department of Health noticed that some of the fish contained the chemical, which was used as a lawn care pesticide, after routine monitoring. Deputy Commissioner of Environmental Health, Mark S. Coleman released in a report to the City of Edmond last week that only the channel catfish five-years-old or older showed excessive levels of contamination. The fish are believed to have been originally inhabitants of the Deep Fork River, a highly urbanized tributary which runs into the lake. Efforts to control the amount of the toxic input into the lake food chain has always been considered important, Coleman said, and the report added that the attempt has been successful, because the catfish younger than five years-of-age did not show an accumalation of chlordane.

SA Pres. defines quorum To the editor:

Concerning the recent case pending action by the Supreme Court, we would like to clear any controversy or incorrect information concerning the events that have taken place. At the present time that this letter is being prepared, despite the fact that the case indicates that a copy was to be delivered to at least one of us, none of us have received a copy. However, we know that copies were received by the Supreme Court and The Vista, and this case is pending. A precedent is an action that is followed consistently. Webster defines precedent as, "something done or said that may serve as an example or rule to authorize or justify a subsequent act of the same or analogous kind" or, "the convention established by long practice." An example would be that the Student Senate meets on campus in the University Center. This is not stated in the SA Constitution, but since it has been followed consistently in the past, it is continued until action is taken to do otherwise. I (Jeff Shilling) have stated that precedent takes authority over everything except an organization's constitution. Most organization constitutions that we have reviewed only state items such as the definition of quorum

when they choose to go against Robert's Rules of Order. We believe Senator Allen (the plaintiff) is questioning the rule of quorum. The definition refers to official membership. We believe Senator Allen is confusing official membership with total allotment. The SA Constitution does set up 45 seats. However, it is silent when it comes to fewer people wanting to fill the seats than the total. Thus, a precedent enters into the picture. With students moving and changing works schedules over the summer, it is not unusual for the membership of the Senate to be low at the first meeting. On Aug. 24, there were 19 official senators. Thus, quorum would be 10. However, Senator Allen bases quorum on allotment of 45, making quorum 23. As you can see, with only 19 official, qualified, inaugurated senators, you cannot attain 23. Without possible quorum, it is obvious that senate can't meet. Without a meeting, an election would not be possible. If Senator Allen wants to change current precedent, he is a Senator, and he can take legislative action to change current practice. We don't see any benefit in nullifying past senate business by declaring meetings void. The SA Supreme Court has met once and decided to wait until the

court is full before acting on this case. This should be completed as soon as the Senate finishes reviewing the student appointments. The faculty appointments were finalized this last week. Dr. Lillard should have the administrative appointment finalized this next week. Senator Allen has informed you that an executive council member (Vice President Glen Kilgour) refused to answer the question of how many people had filed for the upcoming election. First, the question was not asked in the meeting. Second, it could not have been fully answered until later that week when the meeting for candidates to declare was held. Senator Allen continues by anwering his own question stating, "There is a definite problem with a system that has only six persons file for 22 open positions." It is interesting to note that 38 declared candidacy, not six. You are the student body that we represent, and we think you need to be properly informed. Please feel free to visit any of our meetings or contact us with any questions. The Student Association is here for all of us. Let's make it work. Jeff Shilling Kirk Killion Jeff Aynes

'Money saver' not working out

To the editor:

Concerning the new campus phone system: resident hall payments went up $20 at the beginning of the fall semester, plus an additional $10 every

month. The reason: a new phone system was installed that provided every resident room with a campus telephone. The system was going to "save the

students money" according to the Housing Office, since we would not have to pay South Western Bell to hook up phones in each room. But what the residents got was not a big "money-saver." It has turned out to be nothing more than a big headache. For 650 phones, there are approximately 61 lines. That works out to one line for every 10 rooms, or one line for every 20 people. It should not have taken much intelligence to see, before school ever started, that this kind of service would be very inadequate. Between the hours of 6 p.m. and midnight, I am unable to make any off-campus phone calls because all outside lines are jammed. And all phone lines in resident hall lobbies have been cut off to outside connections. And finally, if I wish to make a collect call, the only way to do it is on a pay phone. CSU operators will no longer connect us with AT&T operators. The end result: lines of people form at campus pay phones in the evenings to make both local and long distance collect calls. Since I normally do not have 45 minutes to waste standing in phone lines, I end up riding my bike to the Texaco station to make my phone calls now. And I'm paying $110 extra now, in addition to money spent on the pay phones at Texaco. I never chose to have a phone. Residents were not asked if they wanted or did not want a phone. 1 really didn't need one. The lobby phone worked just fine, or I used the pay phone from time to time. Justice was lost somewhere "along the line." And with the rising costs of education, I did not need this extra expense or this extra headache. Administrators, do us a favor; either fix the problems or cancel the program and really "save the students money." Sounds fair enough, doesn't it? Steve I leffernan

Farrell is told the killer, a soviet agent must be found within fortyeight hours to protect national security. There is only one problem. Noone is quite what they appear to be. Not the least of them is his relationship with Susan Atwell, (Sean Young), whom he meets at a Washington party and becomes better acquainted with in the back of a limo. But he soon discovers that she has been holding out on him as well. Brice (Gene Hackman), is at the top of the ladder in the world of political power. Accustomed to getting his own way, Brrice has one obsession besides Atwell — to humiliate Senator Duvall (Howard Duff), his adversary in the capital's controversial funding of the "Phantom Sub" project. That's where Farrell comes in. He is to "access the intelligence community," deriving information from the Senator's friends in the CIA which would not be available through normal channels. No Way Out is a suspenseful yet romantic intrigue, a catch-22 guaranteed to chill your bones and warm your heart.

Do you feel your life is dull and uninteresting? Do you crave excitement, adventure, and love? Well, then join the Houseman family on their vacation at Kellerman's Resort for some "Dirty Dancing." Baby Houseman (Jennifer Grey) is a shy, quiet teenager who is ready to have some fun. She sets her sights on Johnny (Patrick Swayze), a sexy rough and tough guy who danced his way out of the streets and into Baby's heart. Johnny is part of a dance team hired to entertain the guests. The other part of the dance team is Penny (Cynthia Rhodes), an incredible dancer with a big problem. In order to fix her problem, Penny must miss out on a performance, thus leaving Johnny with no partner. Kind-hearted Baby comes to the rescue in more ways than one. She helps out Penny in a big way and steps in as Johnny's dance partner. Now Baby has a problem: she doesn't know how to dance. Johnny teaches the awkward girl some erotic moves that might make you blush. Baby learns the routine in time for the show, the performance is a success, everybody's problems are solved, and everybody is happy. But alas, everybody's problems are just beginning. Through it all Johnny and Baby find courage, friendship, love, and a lot of good times. "Dirty Dancing" is entertaining but predictable.

Cable purchase pending

CSU, phone company await OCC decision By J. Money

Associate editor The Sept. 15 issue of the Vista reported the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges approved $43,000 for the purchase of cable by CSU from South Western Bell. The cable, which is already in ground and installed, may not have to be purchased by the school, however. Auxiliary Enterprises Director Robert Fields said the decision of purchasing the cable that runs between the dormitories on campus and cable running from Murdaugh Hall to the University Center and Computer Center will rest upon the outcome of a plan currently before the Oklahoma Corporate Commission (OCC). "The Federal Communications Commission mandated that on Jan. 1 1987, ownership of cable within buildings (known as running, or grey cable) would be transferred to building owners," Fields said. There are two types of cable used. There is the running cable (used within buildings) and black jacketed cable. Black jacketed cable may carry many different users inside of one building (called riser cable). It is also the kind of cable used between buildings and is commonly buried underground. "A few states," Fields continued, "even took that one step

further and decided that cable on owned property was owned by the property owner as well." Fields explained that ownership change in those states means an individual who owns property not only owns the running cable, but also owns the black jacket cable in the ground, up until the point where it is switched into a line which leads to a telephone company. Fields said the petition in front of the O.C.C. would do the same thing to CSU. It would give ownership of existing cable on the university grounds that formerly belonged to South Western Bell to the university, up until it switches into South Western Bell telephone lines. In CSU's case, the phone company line to the campus terminates in Murdaugh Hall. From there, cable goes to the other dormitories, the Computer Center and University Center. The cable has always been there, but before, students and users had to pay South Western Bell for use of the black jacket cable. CSU installed cable for phone lines between academic and administrative buildings in 1984, and that cable already belongs to the school. The request for the $43,000 from the Regents for the purchas-

ing of the cable, Fields said, was done in case the plan in front of the O.C.C. does not pass. Fields said the the university has been waiting since CSU began its phone service to dormitories to find out if it would be necessary to purchase the cable. Harold Elston, telecommunications specialist for CSU, said the school had enquired how much it would cost to install new cable just for the dormitories, not including the computer center or university center, earlier this year. The pricetag, he said, was $37,000. "Essentially, CSU will save a lot of money, because the purchase price we have worked out with South Western Bell includes the cable going to the Computer Center and University Center," said Elston. "In addition," he added, "if CSU is given the cable through the O.C.C. ruling, South Western Bell will return the $43,000 to CSU, who will in turn give it back to the state. The O.C.C. is expected to meet in October to discuss the plan again. Elston said the main opposition to the plan when it was picked up by the O.C.C. earlier this year involved building and property owners who did not want to be

forced into maintaining the black jacket lines. Because of the opposition, Elston said, the O.C.C. delayed a ruling on the plan. The plan was designed by the O.C.C. staff, and was patterned after other states who have approved similar plans. Elston said CSU has not signed

a formal agreement with South Western Bell yet to purchase the cable, but added that the monetary amount was already agreed upon. Elston estimated a formal agreement involving the purchase of the cable would be signed by the university and phone company within 30-45 days.

Bronchos cage Lions with 28-10 ambush By Mary Butler Sports editor

Photographic Services: Dan Smith

Back for the pass . . . is quarterback Reggie Smith in Saturdays 28-10 Broncho win over the Langston Lions.

Lady spikers win at OBU tourney The CSU volleyball team brought home their first win of the season last Saturday after slapping East Texas Baptist University 15-9, 15-8 in their final contest of a weekend tourney at Oklahoma Baptist University. The Lady Bronchos, coming off a 15-6, 15-8, 15-6 drubbing by Texas Women's University last Tuesday inched their way through three tournament matches before besting the East Texas team. CSU faced off against District-9 rival OBU Friday night in their tourney opener and despite pulling off a 15-10 second game upset, lost 15-9, 10-15, 15-6. The Lady Bronchos dropped their second match of the tourney to an Arkansas team. Ouachita Baptist University silenced CSU in straight games, 15-9, 15-6. Saturday morning, the Lady Bronchos challenged the University of Mary Harden Baylor and lost their fourth straight match, 15-8, 15-6. The CSU win over East Texas capped their tourney efforts. "This weekend was the best we've played. There's a lot we can do better, but the girls played real hard and real well," said Coach Joe Curl. Lady Broncho co-captian Rita Uhlenhake and mate Sandy Bounds anchored the CSU effort. Uhlenhake, one of Curls "best all around players," led the Broncho spikers and "turned in a weekend of solid blocking." Bounds nailed 37-of-38 serves in the tourney and made spiking easy for Uhlenhake with two days of steady sets. Shelly Parent, a senior CSU track standout, also turned in a fine performance, putting together a solid floor game and consistent passing. The Lady Bronchos will challenge OBU again toinght at 7:00 p.m. in the Broncho Field House in their home opener. "We have a chance to win," said Curl. "If we can stay consistent and execute offensively and defensively, and take advantage of their mistakes we can win," added Curl.

Snapping a two season-five game winless spell, the CSU football team rallied from behind, to pull off a 28-10 win over the visiting Langston Lions Saturday night in Wantland Stadium. Last week Broncho quarterbacks, with a less-than-desirable .136 percent pass completion rate, found themselves in the dog house. This week Glynn Walker and Reggie Smith teamed up to produce CSU's first 300-plus offensive performance, converted the teams highest number of first downs this season and put Broncho first half points on the board for the first time this year. Walker, with two keepers, eased himself into CSU's top scoring slot. The senior quarterback has scored 14 of the Bronchos 43 points this season. Smith, despite suffering a pair of Langston sacs, completed 5-out-of-3 passes for 74 yards, including a 58 yard touchdown toss to Stacey Spencer. Walker connected on 4-of-8 passes for 75 yards. A trio of accomplices aided the quaterback duo in the Broncho's offensive surge. Sophomore Stacey Spencer hauled in a 58 yard Smith pass in the second quarter and rushed for a team high 81 yards on nine carries to highlight the Broncho effort. Ray Collins, a junior tight end fielded a pair of passes, including a 26 yard Walker strike, for 42 yards while junior mate Ronnie Neal caught a 25 yard Walker pass. On the defensive side of the Broncho cause, Freshman Michael Bennett totaled 13 tackles to add to his team high season count of 42. Bennett's efforts

Saturday also included a quaterback sac. Senior Neil Galbraith recorded his second interception of the young season, picking off a Sandord Finlea pass on the CSU 24 yard line in the second half. Coach Howard was pleased with the Broncho showing. "From a total team standpoint, we needed something good to happen to us. The win over Langston was just the thing," said Howard. "We had quite a few players execute better this game, showing how much we've improved. The win was good for our morale. Our

In for the score . . .

young players neede to see some dividends from all their hard work," Howard said. The Bronchos will have Saturday off this week. The next CSU game is scheduled for Oct. 3 when the Bronchos tangle with the highly ranked Cameron Aggies in Lawton. "The next two weeks we have to work hard on the fundamentals of our offense, particularly the passing game," said Howard. "We have still got to get better with our pass blocking and the timing of our routes. It will just take hard work and repetition," added Howard.

"HOW I MADE $18,000 FOR COLLEGE BY WORKING WEEKENDS."

As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back—up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000 —or more —for college for just a little of my time. And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you.

When my friends and I graduated from high school, we all took part-time jobs to pay for college. They ended up in car washes and hamburger joints, putting in long hours for little pay. Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurricanes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense. So, since I'm helping them do such an important job, they're helping me make it through school.

THE GUARD CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.
