Vote Wednesday Student senate candidates profiled By Bill Kramer Staff Writer
Seven candidates for Student Association Senate seats representing the College of Liberal Arts are competing for five available positions for the fall senate election tomorrow. Representatives for the College of Business Administration and the College of Education were appointed to vacant senate seats without opposition, according to student association officials. Polls will be open to eligible voters at 8:30 a.m. Polls will be open until 7 p.m. in University Center, across from the bookstore. Vying for the senate seats are: Jeff Blansett, Valentine C. Ruth, Jay Jaekel, Dwanna Costello, Judy Tennel, Brian Jones and Charles Brimer. Blansett, a 1980 graduate of Poly High School in Riverside, Calif., and a junior majoring in political science, is running for his third consecutive term as a student senator. He previously served as parlimentarian and chairman of the continuum committee. He is currently serving on the committee revising the senate constitution as well, he said. Blansett, the current president of Wesley Foundation, said his job the past two years as senator allowed him to represent the student body by voting on and writing legislation.
"I really have enjoyed it (being a student senator)," he said. "It's one of the most fulfilling organizations I have belonged to." Tulsa Edison graduate Valentine C. Ruth is a senior majoring in general studies. She is running for senate so she can take the skills she has learned and put them to good use in the legislauture, she said. Ruth also hopes that by being elected she can help make people aware of the need for a bond between younger and older persons, she said. If elected, Ruth plans to push for legislation aiding commuters and night students. She has been active in government and volunteer work for many years, she said. Senate candidate Jay Jaekel, a freshman criminal justice major from Oklahoma City, is a 1988 graduate of Western Heights High School. He is a member of Sigma Tau Gamma and was a senate page at the state capitol for four years. He said he feels he has been around the government for quite some time. His goals for the senate include finding solutions to the parking problem and determining what exactly happened with the budget this year and how to prevent such problems from happening in the future, he said. Sophomore political science major Dwanna L. Costello is a
English 1153 returns An English course designed for international students have been reinstated for the spring semester after formal protests from the Malaysian Students Association and other interested parties were launched last week. Ming Thiang, MSA president, said English instructor Mary Spelman, who teaches the course, told him Thursday that English 1153 classes had been reinstated. Thiang said when the MSA learned Sept. 15 about the cancellations, the group wrote a letter to the editor of The Vista protesting the situation. Copies of the MSA letter were sent to CSU President Bill Lillard, Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Clyde Jacob, and Ron Paddack, international student advisor, Thiang said. Jimmie Rogers, assistant professor of history and geography and advisor to MSA, also intervened on behalf of international students, Thiang said. Dr. Frances Marie Saunders, chairwoman of the English department, was not available at press time to comment on the reinstatement of classes.
1980 graduate of Henryetta High School. Costello said she thinks the university needs good representation for the student body and thinks she can be instrumental in helping legislation and the student senate. She will push for legislation regarding parking solutions and financial aid problems, she said. I'm probably the typical CSU student," she said. "I'm a single mother, I work and I'm 26 years old." Candidate Judy Tennell, a 1989 graduate of Harrah High School, is a freshman majoring in public relations. She has been president of her high school student council, active in athletics and many other things, she said. "I would really like to get inPlease see ELECTION page 8.

CSU drug arrests logged By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer
About 20 Central State University students between 19 and 25 years old have been arrested in campus dormitories for drugrelated crimes since spring of last year, according to campus police officials. Sgt. Hayes Forbes, campus police detective and technical investigator, said seven students were arrested in East Hall in spring 1988; five students in East Hall
last fall; five students in West and Thatcher halls last spring; and one student in East Hall so far this fall. The biggest drug bust was made May 5, 1988 when campus police arrested seven students in East Hall, seizing two to three ounces of marijuana, $508 cash, and drug paraphernalia. Three of the seven arrests made were students listed on a search warrant filed by the district attorneys office, Forbes said. Campus police, with the assis-

tance of Edmond police undercover officers on Dec. 7, 1988, arrested five students in East Hall and seized an undetermined amount of marijuana and cocaine. "The drug busts were haceri nn the number and the seriousness of complaints received from the campus community. Acting on complaints made, the campus police normally conduct preliminary investigations through informers developed by the campus police," Forbes said. "We'll call in undercover assistance from the Edmond police and the state narcotics department if the investigations warrant it. Limited manpower resources do not allow us to do undercover work, which is very complex. Also, undercover work is done by people who are not easily recognizable by others on campus," he said. Forbes said all the students were convicted of drug-related charges. "They did not receive jail sentences because, during plea bargaining, some of them got deferred sentences, some did community service sentences, and Please see DRUGS on page 8.

Viewpoints SA Senate lacks desire, potential By DeWayne Smoot
Editor in chief It's refreshing to see students on campus pooling their efforts to accomplish a goal. The Malaysian Student Association did just that last week when an English course designed to benefit—not only. them, but all—international students was threatened by CSU class-slashers. Their combined efforts restored the spring semester classes previously scheduled. It's shocking that the Student Association took no action on this issue or issues concerning class cut-backs earlier this fall when adjuncts were severed from academic offerings here. Do these—so-called—student government leaders know what their duties as elected representatives are? Evidently, they don't. As defined in CSU's brochure of student organizations, the Stuuent Government Association was
established to: promote development of student leadership; unify student recreation and social activities; to work with faculty and administrators to further academic excellence and establish closer communication with students; to recommend and take steps to support and carry into effect any policy to further the excellence of this university and the quality of student life. As viewed from here, it would be hard to support any evidence that current representatives have worked to achieve these standards: A proposal requiring senators to keep regularly scheduled office hours was defeated by a reported two-thirds majority. Are they trying to establish closer communication with students? Last fall, amendments to the SA Constitution were voted for. The changes were presented to CSU President Bill Lillard for approval and have sit there since.
And now the liberal arts representative election is scheduled tomorrow—education and business representatives were seated by acclamation. When were the candidates and their platforms an-
nounced? Today—and only because reporters for The Vista sought out the information. It is understandable why voter turnout is low. Nobody knows
who the candidates are, let alone what they stand for. Rather than vote, it might be a wiser choice to join the Malaysian Student Association. But, I guess, I'll give it one more try.
Americans don't value education To the Editor: For those who are from Enid or Phillips University now here at Central State University, Bill Snodgrass, history professor, my advisor and close friend, died Monday of cancer. I hope students here will encounter a professor in class who lifts you beyond class requirements, up into the dimensions and dynamics of a field until you can actually feel yourself grow and be forever changed for the better. Dr. Bill Snodgrass had that effect. It has caused me to reflect on
education and DeWayne Smoot's Tuesday editorial. I've taught high school in San Antonio and Drummond. I've substituted in Enid, Denver, and Iliamna, Alaska. I disagree strongly with Smoot when he writes that Oklahomans have committed themselves and their tax dollars to improve educational quality, or if there even exists a healthy spirit for educational reform. Culturally, and traditionally, as a people, Americans have never valued education, and in spite of all the media hoopla, still don't.
We hold to the attitude that what was good enough for my parents is good enough for me. And in spite of all the warnings from educatiors on the flaws of this approach, it has made us the only nation which is both an economic and military superpower. That is why people ignore the lost opportunities they might have had, why students are silent when adjuncts are slashed from class schedules for more balloons at a centennial celebration, and why parents quietly deny proper, special education coursework for their children.
When I was a college student a decade ago, young and naive, I thought this attitude toward education could be changed. Now that I am older, I have conformed to the majority's view on education. I am no longer a reformer, no longer an idealist. But, conformity has a price. It has forced me back to college to relearn, to acquire new skills, and to rethink. What I was taught before proved not enough. Mike Coppock CSU Student
Worker scrutinizes CSU's decisions To the Editor: I would like to point out some ineffiencies of this university. The university held an auction back in July. In this auction, many like-new parts were auctioned off at tremendously decreased prices. Some of these parts cost the uni-
versity several dollars, but were sold for pennies. I have seen and heard about, since that time, the need for some of those parts from different departments. Since the departments no longer have these parts, they
have to order them at a new, and many times, more expensive, parts price. The workers do not see any sense in this type of activity, nor can I. Also, the university has forgotten its primary objective: educa-
tion, not partying. Although there is a reserve fund which could be— and should be—used for any shortages to prevent class reductions, they would rather use it for a celebration.
Letter The faculty is not for this, but the leaders—the university president and regents—are for this misuse of university funds. I think that, instead of wasting money by selling necessary parts at greatly decreased prices then buying new parts, and instead of having celebrations more important than education, the university should be more efficient in money matters and focus their attention on educating the student who is here to learn.

Afro-Am revising agenda By Jeanette Brown Student Writer
Social, educational and cultural programming are only part of a new agenda being planned by the Afro-American Student Union to "Get Involved" with campus activities, the theme for the group's first meeting and party. "This party is for all students on and off campus. That's the purpose," said Richard Bean, vice president of the club. The idea is for all students to get involved in different sorts of campus activities, he said.
Afro-Am also plans to be active in intramural sports and other activities involving environmental awareness, he said. The party will be held from 7 to 11 p.m. Thursday at Thatcher Lake if weather permits, Bean said.

CSU's flying faculty After school, it's off to the skies By Amy Hervey Student Writer If camping under the wing of a plane is your idea of fun, you should join Dr. William VanOsdol, a special education professor, each August in Osh Kosh, Wis. VanOsdol, following his childhood dream, learned to fly in the Navy V-12 aviation cadet program. Later, he became a commercial flight instructor in Wichita, Kan. In addition, VanOsdol has flown as a line surveyor for American Telephone and Telegraph, dropped Navy parachutists in California, assisted with aerial photography assignments, and
was stationed on a Navy aircraft carrier during a tour of duty while serving in the military. He also continued commercial flight instruction part-time after coming to CSU in 1964. VanOsdol brought his talents home to CSU when he helped start a pilot-training ground course through the Department of Safety Education. However, this program is no longer available. He now flies his Cessna Cardinal whenever time permits and insists, "It's just a hobby." His blue-and-white plane, a four-passenger Cessna, is a collector's item since the major aircraft companies, such as Cessna,
Beech, and Piper quit making such small planes in the last few years. The plane has a 37-foot wingspan and is powered by a 150-horsepower Lycoming engine. For the last six or seven years, VanOsdol has attended an international air exhibit in Osh Kosh, sponsored by the Experimental Aircraft Association. Each summer, aircraft enthusiasts gather for eight days of fun, fellowship, and flying. "Most of the guys in light aircraft nowadays do it just for fun," VanOsdol said. More than 15,000 airplanes fly in from all over the United States, according to VanOsdol. He said
Dr. William VanOsdol total attendance at the event was nearly a million people including spectators that flock to the event every year. Last August, a 747 flew in from Australia, bringing 243 pilots to join the festivities, he said. VanOsdol also enjoys flying in Oklahoma when the weather allows. He has an acreage with a private airstrip, where he stores his Cessna: a childhood dream come true.
Higher ed computer network eyed By Mark Schlactenhaufen Student Writer A proposal to link state colleges and universities by a high-tech, statewide computer network system will be presented to the higher education chancellor in Decem-

AERho recruiting more members By James Jackson Student Writer Central State University's chapter of Alpha Epsilon Rho, the national broadcasting society, discussed ways to increase membership and raise funds this year during a club meeting Wednesday. This year, as in past years, AERho is raising money by selling blank, three-quarter-inch field and master video tapes to broadcasting students. Students use the tapes for assignments in broadcasting courses. Shayna Austin, AERho president, said the club sold raffle tickets for Ducks Unlimited, an international group dedicated to preserving and re-claiming breeding habitats of ducks and other wetlands wildlifes, as another fundraiser. Tammy Dollar, vice president, said profits from both these activities helped defray the cost of attending the national convention. This year the convention will be in Orlando, Fla. Dan Arnold, co-advisor to the club, said attending the convention is important because career planning sessions with top....
ranking network executives and video producers are an integral part of the event. "I recommend that everyone who is a broadcast major become a member of Alpha Epsilon Rho. The contacts you can make are invaluable," he said. Alpha Epsilon Rho is an organization that includes faculty, students and others who have established themselves in the broadcast industry. The next AERho meeting will be at noon Tuesday in the TV Annex north of the Communication Building. A regular meeting schedule will be decided then. For information, contact an officer, or call KCSU-2 at 341-2980, Ext. 2589.
work. The committee will report its findings to the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. Manoharan said the computer network would create common access to different types of computers from one source, allowing users to retrieve information about various computer programs. If the network is approved by the regents, CSU students and staff members could access systems at University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and any other college and university campus in the state plugged into the network. However, Manoharan said funding is a major roadblock in completing the network if, indeed, the proposal is approved. "The selling points are there, but the money is not," she said. "OU and OSU would have to put money into it, not just us. This Oklahoma network would have to be high-speed fiber-optic, and that
has a high price." Fiber-optic cables are a highly efficient information carrier used in modern telephone systems. The cable's compact size and consistency makes it an efficient means of transmitting information despite the initial expense for installation, according to communication officials. An exact timetable has not been set for the Oklahoma computer system, but Manoharan estimated the network could become a reality in about two years. If the network becomes reality, Manoharan said CSU students could connect their terminals with the statewide database collection of technological information and a wide variety of other computer networks operating across the country.

Worth Sept. 30 for all interested students, said Dr. William Hommel, chairman of the art department. The Kimbell has a permanent collection of fine art, but the big attraction right now is the Fitzwilliam collection, a 160- piece exhibit traveling from Cambridge University in England. The Fitzwilliam collection contains everything from old master and impressionist paintings to ceramics, coins, bronzes and decorative arts. "The diversity of the Fitzwilliam collection is what is exceptional here," said Rhys W. Roark, president of the art club. "The exhibit has something for everyone. I personally love 17th century European paintings, and these are what I am looking forward to seeing," said Roark.

Stage magic sprouts in old barn By Valerie Ragsdale Student Writer
"It's definitely the ugliest building on campus, but it's functional," laughs Dr. Donald Bristow, director of Central State University Theater. Of course, he's talking about the set and costume shop of the Theater Department, just west of University Center. Inside the old metal building, all sorts of scenery, backdrops, props and costumes await the start of the season's productions. Scattered about are wood, nails, paint, paper, and material being carved, hammered, and cut by students constructing another scene
for the coming play. Scene designer Matt Aston is in charge of designing and supervising construction of all sets for both the drama and musical theater productions. In another corner of the building costumes are stored. Almost every costume imaginable can be found in the building: from early Greek to 18th century ball-gowns to contemporary cop's • and robber's outfits, complete with proper jewelry and shoes. Where did all those costumes come from? Bristow said, although some of the clothes were donated to the theater program, most were designed and sewn—or collected—
by Central State University drama students and others. Bristow said the resident expert on costumes and costume designing is Sam Morris, his administrative assistant. Morris admits he knows the purpose of almost every costume in stock, saying the costumes cover almost any time period a person could possibly want. "You can be an early Greek in one minute, in an 18th century garden dress the next, and in a `Roaring '20s' flapper costume the next," he said. Costumes for this year's productions run the gamut as well: From Victorian to 1850s western wilderness, from operatic to Ja-
panese or rural southern. Costume enthusiasts can see a little bit of everything, Morris said. The first stage will be set and costumes donned for "Tartuffe," by Moliere Sept. 28, the first production of the season. Eight regular productions and a special OneAct Play Festival will follow. The season ends Apr. 29, 1990.
When everything comes together in Mitchell Hall, looking polished and professional and easy, it will be hard to imagine that it all began in an "ugly, but functional" metal building months earlier. Sometimes, like the oyster and the pearl, the greatest treasures come from the ugliest shells.

Matadors rally, defeat CSU By John Lukehart Sports Editor California State UniversityNorthridge drove 59 yards in 1:14 to rally from a 28-24 deficit against Central State University Saturday night in front of over 3,000 spectators at CSUN's North Campus Stadium. The Matadors opened the scoring mid-way into the first quarter after CSU's Ben Morrison fumbled on the Broncho 13-yard line. The scoring play was an eightyard toss from Sherdrick Bonner to Albert Fann, Fann finished with over 200 yards total offense. The extra-point kick was good. Matadors led 7-0. CSU came right back. On their next possesion, the Bronchos drove 84 yards to tie the score at seven. The big play of the 84-yard drive was Brento Vann's 62-yard carry to the Matador 11. On the next play Pinkey Hurley dashed into the endzone.
CSUN took the lead on the first play of the second quarter with a 45-yard field goal by Abo Velasco. CSU battled back after Brant Lane recovered a Matador fumble on the CSUN 3-yard line. Morrison scored on a one yard option keeper to give CSU a 14-10 lead. The Matadors fumbled the following kickoff, Robert Gordon recovered for the Bronchos. CSU drove 19 yards in three plays to take a 21-10 advantage. The score came on a Hurley run of five yards. CSUN threatened once more before the half, but the Broncho defense backed the Matadors out of field goal range. In the third quarter the Matadors took their first possesion 72-yards, but had to settle for a 39-yard Velasco field goal. On CSU's next possession, Morrison's pass on a third-andnine play was picked off by Pre-
ston Hayslette and returned to the Broncho 34. After a gain of two on first down, CSUN attempted a pass to the Broncho five yard line. CSU was penalized for pass interference. Fann carried the the ball on the next two plays to set up a first and goal from the Broncho three. Two plays later, Farm raced around the right side for a touchdown. Bonner then completed a two-yard pass to Fann for the two-point conversion and the Matadors knotted the score at 21. CSUN's defense stuffed the Bronchos on their next series, and at the end of the third quarter the score was still tied. Early in the fourth quarter, the Matadors marched to the CSU 20. However, the Matadors came away empty. Keith Traylor blocked a 37-yard field goal with 12:47 remaining. CSU was held to one yard on their next possesion.
breaking the tie with a 32-yard Valasco field goal. CSU, trailing by three, took over with a first and 10 at their own 15-yard line with just over three minutes remaining. With 1:25 remaing in the contest Morrison completed a pass to Glen Braxton for a 40-yard touchdown strike. The point after was good and the Bronchos led 28-24. Fann then returned the kickoff 22 yards to the CSUN 41-yard
line. The Matadors drove 59 yards in 10 plays. The drive included a fourth-and-two play in which Bonner scrambled for the first down. The winning touchdown came on a 17-yard pass from Bonner to Anthony Harris. The loss dropped the Bronchos to 0-3-1 on the season. CSU will be on the road again next week as they travel to East Texas State University.

Lady Broncho spikers win three out of four By Randy Anderson Staff Writer Central State University's volleyball team continued to improve last week as coach Joe Curl's spikers upped their season record to 16-8.
Wednesday evening in the Broncho Field House the Lady Bronchos ran into some trouble against East Texas State. CSU started strong but was nipped at the end of game one 13-15. In game two ETSU won 9-15. The
Lady Bronchos came on strong to take game three 15-10, but fell in the final game 9-15. "Even though we lost we walked off the floor with a good attitude," Curl said. "East Texas was picked in pre-season to finish second in our conference." Friday night CSU played a doubleheader against Texas A&I. Although the aggies won the first two games of the first match 13-15, and 10-15 they were unable to win again as the Lady Bronchos ripped off the next three games.
In match two CSU quickly ended the contest in three straight shutting down the aggie attack 15-5, 15-9, 15-5. "We lost the first two games against A&I which bothered us just a little," Curl said. "But, we came right back and won the next six games which make me pretty happy." Texas Women's University made the three hour drive up from Please see SPIKERS on page
Both men, women Win cross country meets By John Lukehart Sports Editor Both Central State University cross country teams captured their first victories of the 1989 season last weekend at the John Brown Invitational in Siloam Springs, Ark. The Lady Bronchos dominated their competition. CSU's women captured first through fourth place on their way to the team title. Leading the way for the Lady Bronchos was Kevette Smargiassi with a time of 20:08 on the 5,000 meter course. Following Smar-
giassi were Melanie Mills, 20:36; Roxie Brown, 21:36; Melissa Jones, 21:41; and Tonya Preston, 27:53. The victory was the first for the Lady Bronchos since it's development four years ago, said Coach Paul Parent. Parent said he was happy with the times posted by his runners. "The times were pretty good, considering it's early in the year," Parent said. For the men, Kyle Skartwed set the pace. Skartwed finished with a time of 26:24, five seconds ahead
of teammate and runner-up Dwayne Antonio. Bill Uptergrove finished in fourth place with a time of 26:57. The followers included: John McIntosh, 27:20; Keith Castillo, 27:49; and Ernest Proo, 27:55. Parent said the Bronchos will continue to work hard during the early stages of the season. The Bronchos next competition is this weekend at the Cowboy Jamboree in Stillwater.

others had to pay victim compensation," Forbes said. He said the most often used drug in the dorms is marijuana. "From the information that we've gathered, suspected dealers in the dorms were selling a quarter bag of marijuana for $25 to $30 and making gross profits of about $1,800 a week from selling one pound of the drug," Forbes said. Forbes said students should understand that, not only is it a felony to posssess or distribute an illegal drug, it is misdemeanor to possess drug paraphernalia. He said items such as roaches (butts of marijuana cigarettes), roach clips, bongs or pipes, or any containers containing drug residue.
Campus Police Chief Bob Roberts said it's hard to tell how serious the substance abuse problem is at CSU. "The drug problem at CSU is far less compared to other colleges in the state. If we've more students living on campus, then we would know. But, the fact that we're a commuter college, there is no way to tell."
