AIDS legislation narrowly passed By Elaine Coleman

Student writer The Student Association Senate dealt with two issues at its Oct. 5 meeting, a resolution calling for a nondiscrimination policy toward AIDS inflicted students, and a resolution asking for condoms to be available for purchase at the Student Health Center. The first resolution called for the CSU administration to form a clear and concise nondiscrimination policy against persons with AIDS as it relates to their participation in any activities connected with CSU. Sen.T. Lee Allen, author of the resolution, presented it to the senate, pointing out that while AIDS has continued to spread through the population, it has been medically established that AIDS is not transmitted through casual contact. Allen said that consequently, persons with AIDS

need a nondiscriminating policy. "I believe it is prudent that our university has something, in writing, before it becomes a problem," Allen said. "CSU needs to have a written policy that allows a person with AIDS to attend class." Allen went on to explain that although this resolution could set precedence for other collegiate legislation, passage of the resolution would only effect the CSU campus. "This legislation is only asking for our administration to come up with a policy," he said. Sen. David Fuller also gave his support to the resolutioin. "All we are doing is saying that we are standing a certain way on a bill and would like to see others adopt this policy," said Fuller. He added that the Student Association could change its position of support if further information, showing different evidence, is later released.

December grads plan ceremony By J. Money

Students unhappy about the lack of a graduation ceremony in December have started planning a graduation without the school's help. Two students graduating in December, Deborah Mosely and Kerri Moon, said the idea was the only logical alternative they could come up with after finding out ceremonies were out of the question for December graduates. "A lot of people have worked very hard to get to the point of graduating, and if CSU can't justify having a graduation for December graduates, we have to accept that," said Mosely. "However," she continued, "we still think it is important for us to have a ceremony." Mosely said everyone she talked to about the idea is excited, because it dilutes the excitement of graduating to have to wait five months for a ceremony. "The situation is even tougher for graduates who must move away to find a job. It makes it really difficult to get hack for a ceremony," Mosely said. Both Moon and Mosely said the most important thing required of December graduates who are interested in a ceremony is to contact Moon at 771-5326 or Mosely at 340-0167 to find out more about it. Mosely emphasized the gradua-

tion will also be followed by a celebration. "We have more leniency about how we can celebrate than we would if it were school operated," said Moon. Mosely said there will probably be a small cost for students who wish to participate in order to cover the cost of facilities used for the graduation. Mosely said it would probably be held at a country club or hotel (possibly at the Oak Tree Golf and Country Club). The pair said they did not know if caps and gowns could be secured for the ceremony. Mosely said she hopes the school is represented, and added the students don't want to be at odds with the university. "We just want to celebrate our achievement," Mosely said, "and we would like CSU's cooperation." The pair said they want their ceremony to be just as professional as the university's, but also said they want to have fun as well. Mosely and Moon said they don't anticipate any problems in setting up the ceremony, provided the support from graduating students is there. "We have been able to get through school, we should be able to set up our own graduation," Moon said.

Although not opposed to the idea, Sen. Jeffrey Aynes felt that a couple of things needed to be brought out before passage of the resolution. "We need to wait just a little to see what comes out of the CSU supreme court," said Aynes. Sen. Bill Smith was also concerned about a quick decision. "We do need a policy, but it needs more discussion and reasearch," said Smith. After extensive debate the resolution was narrowly passed, 14 in favor, 11 opposed and 4 abstentions. The second resolution also met with much controversy. The resolution called for a policy change to allow the dispensation of condoms by the head nurse of the Student Health Center. The condoms would be dispensed confidentially, without parental consent, on demand and at the user's cost. Sen. T. Lee Allen introduced the resolution to the Senate. The purpose of the bill, he said, was not to support promiscuous sexual activity by CSU students, but to allow them to purchase condoms at a discount price to encourage as safe as possible sex. "AIDS is a problem," said Allen. "Let's take a stand to help alleviate the problem." Sen. Jeffrey Aynes felt that the bill would promote sex on the CSU campus. "There are other ways to do this," said Aynes. "I think we

should take another approach and be known as an academic campus and not as a sex campus." Sen. Lisa Coen also felt that the CSU Student Health Center is not the place to distribute condoms. "I realize that AIDS is a problem, but I don't feel that distributing them on campus is the purpose of the university," said Coen. "I don't feel giving the

students condoms at cost is part of the Health Center's responsibility." The condom resolutions passed, 15 in favor, 11 opposed and no abstintions. A third resolution, calling for the creation and support of an AIDS Awareness Week, was held over for action next week by the senate.

Testing urged for food handlers in wake of typhoid fever case By J. Money

Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services, announced yesterday that one resident of East Hall has contracted typhoid fever. A statement released by Ryan said the student, who was not identified, did not contract the disease on campus. Ryan said the university has been in contact with the Oklahoma County Health Department, and that proper precautions are being taken to prevent the spread of the disease. Ryan said the person who had the disease has been cared for in a proper manner and continues to be closely monitored. Typhoid fever is treated by antibiotics. Ann Stewart, director of the Student Health Center, said the incubation period for typhoid fever is one to three weeks. Ryan said since the mode of

transmission for typhoid fever is through contaminated food or water, it is preventable. Several precautions against contracting typhoid fever include handwashing after using the restroom and before preparing food. Shellfish should be boiled or steamed at least ten minutes before serving. Other precautions include drinking only chlorinated water and pasteurized milk. Chlorinated sater is supplied to the university by Edmond. Ryan said the symptoms of typhoid fever are: sustained fever, headache, weakness, loss of appetite, a relatively slow heart beat and enlargement of the spleen. Other symptoms are rose spots on the trunk of the body, nonproductive cough, constipation or diarrhea, and swelling of the lymphoid tissues.

Ryan said it is very unlikely that transmission has occurred as a result of the common restroom in East Hall; however, he suggested that residents of East Hall, C Floor (third floor in the west wing) be tested if they are really concerned. Ryan said it is important that those residents that are food handlers anywhere be tested. Instruction for being tested is available for those residents that fall into this category. Students may go to the Student Health Center and receive the instruction and means for the test. Residents will not be charged for testing. Ryan concluded by saying if students have further questions about typhoid fever they can contact the Student Health Center at extension 2317.

By Shannon Blockcolski Associate Editor After seeing "Full Metal Jacket" last night (yes, I had to wait until it came to the $1.50 movie theater, I am a CSU student and employee), my views on war were strengthened. The latest actions taken by the United States military in Nicaragua and the Persian Gulf show the U.S. government seems to have forgotten about the "little mess in Vietnam."

Commentary The blind support U.S. citizens give today to the President and his defense department seem to show they've blocked the death, carnage, psychological horror and lies fed to them by that "police action" in Vietnam. The movie showed me war is an operation in death; when a brainwashed soldier is shooting women and children, he doesn't think about political or religious freedom. He isn't sitting in a plush chair, sticking pins in a map and bragging about death totals. The soldier is fighting for his life, nothing else. "Full Metal Jacket" has a dual purpose, to show the terrifying realism of the Vietnam War and force the American people to open their eyes to the tactics of the U.S. government. Everyone should see the movie and act on their gut reaction, before their sons, boyfriends, husbands and brothers end up a statistic on the nightly news.

Special treatment 'makes me sick' By Mary Butler Sports editor Buried under Wednesday's front page Daily Oklahoman headline, "Former OU Official Charged in Degree-Selling Scam," lies the allegation that one of those unearned degrees rests in the hands a of former OU football player. The Daily Oklahoman reported that Percy Haynes McBride holds an OU master's degree dated May 14, 1976. The story also quotes Cleveland County Assistant District Attorney Irby Taylor who said, "But there's no record he ever attended graduate school at OU." OK. Come on guys, I love sports, but let's take a good look at what's been going on. Things are not getting out of

hand, they are out of hand. And the alleged phony OU degree is like a peanut at the Skippy peanut butter factory, i.e a drop in the bucket. A professor in one of my classes shared an interesting observation about the United States and Russia last week. "In Russia they cater to the brains and athletes, in the United States, we just cater to the athletes," he said. It's become a way of life in our society, I suppose, athletes are special. Personally, this philosophy makes me sick. If anything, we should expect more from our superhuman heros. With all of their talent and power and strength, why would an athlete want special treatment anyway?

Student charges discrimination By Annie John Is discrimination still prevalent in CSU? Yes, I strongly feel that discrimination is widely practised at CSU, and I am talking from an international student's point of view. I came from Malaysia with the expectation that I could complete my education here as well as mix around with some Americans to learn a bit of their culture. I also hoped that they would learn something from me too.

Guest commentary Was I disappointed? Yes, I was. I still am. I have been here for nine full months, but I can't proudly boast of learning much from the Americans at CSU (culture-wise). In the cafetarias, discrimination is so noticable. The blacks sit in one corner, the whites another and the internationals are squeezed in the center. This situation is not only among the students but also with the CSU staff. In the beginning of the fall semester, I was job-hunting and went for an interview in a particular department. The post was for a student secretary. Before I could even display my typing abilities etc., the interviewer told me that she was looking for someone

who could write good English, so that the secretary could pick out the typing errors. She immediately said that she was looking for an American to fill up the post. She also mentioned that I would do a much better job working in the library. "Doing what?", I wanted to ask. I might have a bit of an accent, but then, so do the Texans. Did she bother to ask me whether I could write in English? Did she even enquire about my major? If she did, she would have known that I am a journalism major, and aren't journalism students required to be proficient in the English language anyway? I am happy to say however that not all the staff is like that. I had a political science lecturer who after my finals, told me personally that he appreciated internationals attending his classes. He said that Oklahomans have a lot to learn from the internationals, but he also mentioned that Oklahomans aren't willing to open up to internationals and that they have a very narrow perspective of life. How about the attitudes of students in CSU in comparison with students from other campuses? I have mixed around with students from OSU, OU, University of Wisconsin, University of Southwestern Louisiana and the Col-

lege of the Ozarks in Arkansas. I have been amazed by their willingness to accept internationals. Every one I mixed around with from these universities were really funloving, friendly and interesting people. So, what is wrong with the students in CSU? Are they too busy to mix around with international students? I feel upset to confess that I will be going back home absorbing a bit of the American culture not from students from CSU, but from everywhere else, because no one in CSU is willing to share -- with the exception of a few. I know for sure that this problem affects a majority of the international students, which means that there is a breakdown of the sharing system somewhere. CSU is very eager to accept students from abroad and it helps Oklahoma's revenue, so we are not exactly a burden to the Oklahomans but instead an asset to the state. I have felt disgusted with some of the students attitudes and when some of my friends (back in Malaysia) ask for advice about which university to choose, I tell them not to come here. Although CSU is comparitively cheap, my friends will lose out on a lot more because of the indifferent attitudes from CSU students. Is there any way we can remedy the situation?

Iran puts bases on full alert

Iranian bases in the Persian Gulf are on full alert after Iran naval exercises lured a U.S. warship to their manuevers in the north end of the gulf. Rear Adm. Harold J. Bernsen, commander of the United States Navy's Middle East Force, said he was ordered to break away from a southbound convoy and move north Friday night. Iraqi officials said 19 civilians were killed during Iranian shelling of border towns Sunday, and Iran reported injuries from Iraqi bombardments on its frontline cities. Meanwhile, the Italian navy is planning to escort its first Italian-flagged tanker through the Persian Gulf, where 375 ships have been attacked since September 1980.

Aftershock kills 1, injures 200 An aftershock Sunday morning from an earthquake which hit Southern California Thursday caused at least one death and more than 200 injuries. The 3:59 a.m. aftershock was the 22nd registering more than 3.0 on the Richter scale of ground motion since Thursday's quake. The original quake measured 6.1, caused six deaths and created more than $108 million in damage. Sunday's aftershock knocked out power, damaged buildings and sent residents into the streets in suburban Rosemand, eight miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.

Reagan claims Bork still 'alive President Reagan said Sunday Judge Robert H. Bork's Supreme Court nomination was not dead, and that he would keep fighting for Bork's placement. Reagan said he would not withdraw Bork's name from the Senate's consideration and he would continue with his nomination. White house spokesperson Marlin Fitzwater said the White House has a full agenda of activities to keep the nomination fight at the top of the president's schedule. He said the public would see something everyday about Bork. Sen. Orrin G. Hatch, R-Utah, said Reagan intends to push for a full Senate vote on Bork even if the Senate Judiciary Committee does not recommend his selection. The committee is scheduled to vote today on the nomination.

Pit bull attacks 3-year-old girl

A three-year-old girl was hospitalized in Nampa, Idaho Saturday with injuries inflicted by a 110-pound pit bull. The dog, named Hamhock, tore off Barbara Wilson's ear, gouged out an eardrum and punctured her skull. Her mother and brother killed Hamhock with eight shotgun blasts. The dog attacked the girl while she was chasing a playmate toward her home. Hamhock leaped at the girl when she ran by his doghouse, according to the victim's brother, Joe Wilson, 14. The dog had Wilson's head locked in its jaws and was shaking it back and forth when the dog's owner, Glen Throme, pulled it off. Wilson is listed in fair condition after three hours of surgery at Mercy Medical Center in Nampa.

Bill to make flights smoke free

Congress is working on a bill to ban smoking on 80 percent of all airline flights in the United States. The Senate Appropriations Committee approved a bill last week to ban smoking for three years on flights lasting two hours or less. The Air Transport Association said the carriers oppose the ban, and the current policies best serve the airline customers.

Park water line filled with dirt

A second water sample taken from Spring Creek Park - Campground at Arcadia Lake was contaminated, according to the Oklahoma Department of Health. The park will remain closed until the problem with dirt in the water lines is eliminated. The water samples show signs of coliform bacteria in the park water, but not in the lake water. Edmond Assistant City Manager Jerry Smith said parts of the water lines will be removed from the ground this week to isolate the problem. The city was made aware of the contamination Sept. 17. Smith said it will take three days to find the problem and six days to disinfect the lines.

Readers' forum

Hahn 'exposes' her story By Martha Giglio The much touted Jessica Hahn issue of "Playboy" has finally hit the news stands. As promised, Hahn vividly described the events leading up to and including her sexual encounter with former PTL head Jim Bakker and evangelist John Fletcher. She also posed semi-nude in a ten page pictorial. Christian leaders such as Jerry Falwell are already condemning Hahn both for having the interview published in "Playboy" and for posing topless. It is uncertain whether they have bothered to read her story.

Commentary In fact, much of what Hahn said rings true. What had been described in the press as a tryst or an affair is more accurately labeled a rape by Hahn. And, if she told the truth, it was rape — two rather brutal and vicious rapes — and Hahn was a virgin. What would Hahn gain by lying? A libel suit filed against her

by Bakker and Fletcher? Because neither of them has filed such a suit, it seems certain Hahn's story is true. It is already an established fact that she received money to keep silent about the incident. In addition, Hahn exhibits many of the classic symptoms of a rape victim. Feeling dirty, showering as soon as possible afterward, wanting to tell few if any people and feeling suicidal. The fact that the incident was published nationwide, and inaccurately at that, would have only intensified her anguish. A rape victim needs to feel clean again. If she can succeed in this in her circle of life, she can resume living in a healthy way. Hahn's problem was open to the entire country. Does it not make sense that she might need to feel clean and beautiful again in a wider realm? A psychologist would say that it is only important that Hahn feel good about herself. It matters not what others think of her. However, since Hahn was without the benefit of counseling, perhaps this exposure was the only method that would allow her to feel good

about herself again. Perhaps she needed to be seen as the clean, beautiful person God created her to be in order to achieve psychological healing. This is, in fact, what she stated. If this is what she felt, she needed to do so to maintain her sanity, how can others condemn her? Do they suggest it would have been better for her to have committed suicide, as she was contemplating? Maybe it wasn't the ideal forum. But what else was there? As Hahn stated, family magazines and newspapers do not print such details. There are no classic art types of magaznes in which her photographs could have been suitably displayed. Perhaps what she did was not typical Christian behavior. She can be restored to complete health by counseling. She is not the only one involved in the incident in need of counseling. But mere mortals cannot judge her. If the actions of Jesus Christ are any indication, God does not condemn her. He understands. Perhaps mere mortals should be as tolerant.

Poetic justice hits NFL To the editor: In 1982, when the National Football League players went on strike, it did not break my heart. The latest episode of football frolick merely tickles me. The following verses express my attitude, which has not changed, although it has been six years since our last break from football saturation. Some had another idea about free agency `Cause they finally told the owners to take a hike But on behalf of the football widows across America I'd like to thank you boys for this strike.

This apprecation note is specifically meant for each and every athletic gent, who was or could have been a gridiron star While the men are wondering what to watch on TV, the women are celebrating joyfully and Dandy Don is wasting away in a bar. There's just one thing that makes me sad that every chance I ever had to be a Dallas cheerleader is no more But I'll recover, you can bet, and I won't even begin to regret, that I never got to shake my porn pons on Channel 4. With nothing to do on Monday night, my hubbie is about to give

up the fight His bookie has had to find a new career I feel sorry that the gambler is down on his luck — he'll just have to earn an honest buck But old gambling debts I no longer have to fear. Girls, enjoy it while you can; you may even find some usefulness for that man Whose eyes and thoughts were glued to the NFL When the strike is settled and more football is on, these days of celebration will be gone and we'll be back to Monday nights with Howard Cosell. Janet Murphy

Out-of-state happenings abundant? To the editor: "C'mon, y'all hurry up and get out of here. Please move out of state while the getting is good." Several friends and acquaintances have already left or are going to leave the great state of Oklahoma. Reasons seem to vary, although most want a bigger job market or just want to be where everything seems to be happening. Move to Los Angeles so you .n go through an earthquake. If ippu're lucky, maybe you will find a bullet in your chest from driving those care free highways. If you find yourself being shot at, don't let the Mercedes quit on you, your jogging suit works. But you will probably forget how to jog. Plus, they probably don't serve

chicken-fried steaks with cream gravy over there. You'll need plenty of energy to make it on to the exit ramp before the bullets catch you. At any rate, if the bullet catches you, you won't have to find a job. Not Los Angeles? How about New York, Chicago or maybe Dallas? Central Expressway in Dallas is fun. During rush hour, it takes thirty minutes to move from wreck to wreck. Dallas does have a larger job market, and lots of people are moving there to find jobs. So hurry and leave, before they are all gone. By the way, the Dallas Metro Police officers starting salary is $20,000. In New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, starting

salaries are probably better. Please leave Oklahoma soon. I will graduate in May and I need a real job. The more people leaving the Oklahoma market, the better my chances are. Gripe and moan about Oklahoma all you want, from somewhere else. Give me a tumbleweed rolling across the open prairie, or an uncrowded highway to drive on, or even the back porch at my house where I can sit outside and listen to the crickets in the early morning while sipping on my coffee. Take your stress and get on out of here. We can always use more job openings. Mark Codner

Band's poetry shines in progressive music By Shannon Blockcolski Associate Editor

10,000 Maniacs is not a slam dancing, screeching, racing guitar chords punk band. Artistic vocalist Natalie Merchant is not a Madonna-clone singing the virtues of acne-scarred love. So this innovative band that combines fresh music with "take a good look at life" lyrics, never gets airplay, which is a loss to genuine new music lovers. "In My Tribe," 10,000 Maniacs new album, studies musical aesthetics and poetic imagry. The first song, "What's the Matter Here," parallels Suzanne Vega's "Luka" in both message and creativity. Yet "What's the Matter Here" delves deeper into the rationalization and apathy society has for both abused children and abusive parents. This song guarantees lack of

commercial radio station recognition for the album, because it has comprehensive lyrics which don't conform to the mediocre chants of pop music. In contrast, the last song, "Verdi Cries," shows Merchant's raspy vocal style can soften into a lilting breeze to enhance the beauty of the instrumentation. The album's masterpiece is "The Cherry Tree," a positive aria which discusses both Adam's temptation for Eve and the apple and a young man's struggle with illiteracy. 10,000 Maniacs "In My Tribe" is extremely versatile underground vinyl. True music lovers should buy this album, if not just to prove the bad judgment of commercial radio in ignoring this band, then to bless their turntables, tape players, CD-players and musical intelligence.

'The Big Town'

By Bill Wallo Student Writer Last year there was "The Color of Money," a film about pool hustlers. Now comes "The Big Town," about shooting craps in 1950s Chicago. Much like Paul Newman's character in "The Hustler," or Steve McQueen's in "The Cincinnati Kid," the hero in "The Big Town" is a small-timer looking for his big break. Matt Dillon plays J.C. Cullen (Cully to his friends), a smalltown kid with "the best arm in the business." He knows the game, and as the advertisements say, has lady luck on his side. He goes to Chicago in search of the big money. He is hired by the Edwards, a husband and wife team of promoters. Bruce Dern does a good job playing Mr. Edwards, an embittered blind man who seems to

hate everyone — Cully especially. He quickly becomes involved with many of the other professionals in a game in the back room of the Gem, a local strip joint. Tommy Lee Jones plays George, the man who owns the Gem and runs the crap game. George takes an instant dislike to Cully. Diane Lane plays Lorna Dane, a stripper at the Gem who Cully falls in love with. She has some mysterious ties to George, and the plot thickens. The movie starts slowly, but quickly builds pace and tension. Ben Bolt, the director, creates a dark world where no one is really good, and even nice girls do. Cully becomes involved in double and triple-crosses as the people around him attempt to get what they want. His battle to stay free of them and go his own way makes for an entertaining, engrossing movie.

'Like Father Like Son'

Place: Mitchell Hall Auditorium

General Admission: $4.00 Student and faculty ID's honored

by Agatha Christie

Dr. Jack Hammond (Dudley Moore), is a prominent heart surgeon. Sophisticated, urbane and slightly snobby, Hammond is next in line to be named chief of staff at one of the world's leading hospitals. Hammond's son Chris (Kirk Cameron), is the typical boy-nextdoor, trying to meet up to his father's image of what he should be — perfect. Chris and his dad accidentlly exchange minds. Now all they have to figure out is who is really the parent and who is the son. Chris becomes a whiz in his biology class where he goes from an average student to knowing more than the professor. Hammond is getting strange looks from his associates as he no longer knows the difference bet-

ween the aorta and an artery. Chris finally has gotten a date with the girl of his dreams, Lori Beaumont (Cami Cooper), but now that he is a mature adult, becomes confused when Lori makes advances towards him. Hammond is fighting his own battles as he attempts to fend off the advances of Ginnie Armbruster (Margaret Collin), his boss' wife. "Like Father Like Son," attempts to examine the trials and tribulations of parenthood and those whacky teenage years, in a comic setting. Though the message is apparent that compassion and understanding are essential to survive these times, the humor becomes a monotnous mound of stale corn.

Students prepare for murder By Gretchen Reichel

Student Writer The mystery of murder will haunt the stage of Mitchell Hall Theater when the CSU drama department presents Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap," Oct. 8-10 at 8 p.m. and Oct. 11 at 2:30 p.m. The characters of Christie's suspenseful mystery will be por-

trayed by eight students: Christie Knight, Gary Richmond, Sam Morris, Kay Blair, John Mock, Sherrie Forren, Alan Sloan and Tim Carver. The actors were selected at tryouts conducted by director Dr. Don Bristow on Sept. 1 and 2. "The Mousetrap" is the 40th production Bristow has directed at CSU. He said the play is a

suspenseful murder mystery that will be "a lot of fun." Tickets can be purchased for $4 at Mitchell Hall. Student and faculty tickets are free with a valid CSU I.D. The drama department's next production will be Eugene 0' Neil's "Desire Under the Elms," directed by Nancy West.

German festival to feature cuisine By Kathy Fletcher

Student Writer Oktoberfest, a German festival of culture and cuisine, will be sponsored by CSU from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday in the University Center ballroom. "Primarily what we will do is try to provide the atmosphere of a German Oktoberfest with decorations, traditional German food and a dance group that will help people get started with the German dances," Randy Meador, night manager of the University Center, said. The performing dance group will feature members of the Oklahoma City International Folkdancers. One dancer, Heinz Jacob, will perform Oktoberfest

tunes on the accordian. "We always try to get everyone who can even walk to join us in the dances," Herman Kolb, Oklahoma City International FolkDancers member, said. The club's motto is, "If you can walk, run and count, you can learn to folk dance." "Everyone performing and serving will be wearing traditional German costumes, as much as possible," Meador said. "The people attending will not be required to be in costume, though." In addition to the participant entertainment, food booths will be set up in the ballroom. According to Pat Gates, director of University Center scheduling, the food booths will be set up

under ten canopies to create an outdoor Oktoberfest atmosphere. The foods will include a meat, vegetable side dish and dessert booth. "Oktoberfest at CSU is an opportunity for students, staff and the community to participate in a traditional German festival," Meador said. Tickets for Oktoberfest are available at The Corner or the Red Bud Room in the University Center. For adult tickets the price is $7.50. For children under 10, the price is $3.50. For more information or group reservation call the Red Bud Room at 341-2980, extension 2510.

Future politicians eligibly for scholarship By Shannon Blockcolski Sophomores interested in a career in government service at the federal, state or local level are eligible to apply for the 1988 Harry S. Truman Scholarship. Other requirements for the scholarships are: leadership and participation in government and related public service, a grade point average of at least a B and academic placement in the upper fourth of the class, United States citizenship and selection of a field of study permitting admission to a graduate program. "The program is to train leaders in government service

under many different disciplines," said Randall Jones, chairman of the CSU Truman scholarship committee. Jones said the program is an official memorial to President Truman. The scholarship coveres eligible expenses up to $7,000 per year for the junior and senior year and two years of graduate study. All candidates for scholarships are nominated by their university, not through direct candidate applications, Jones said. It is required that each state has a scholarship recipient, yet there can be more than one winner from Oklahoma, according to Jones. Eligibility is not limited to

political science majors, Jones said. Winners can be either interested in political science or a be a politician. Interested students must submit a letter of application, a statement of career plans, a list of past public-service activities, a current transcript and a 600-word essay discussing a public policy issue. This information must be in Jones' office, LA 104 E in the Liberal Arts Building by Nov. 4. The scholarships are funded by interest from the Harry S. Truman Memorial Scholarship Trust Fund in the Treasury of the United States.

Aggies saddle Bronchos 31.13 in District-9 battle By Mary Butler

Sports editor It isn't easy rebuilding a football team during a year when seven out of ten of your opponents just happen to be two steps up and out of your league. It dosen't get any easier when you finally face an opponent who is in your league and they turn out to be the top ranked team not only in the district, but in the country. But the Bronchos weren't about to make things easy for the top ranked Cameron Aggies Saturday night. Coach Gary Howard's young Bronchos may have come up on the short side of a 31-13 score, but the Bronchos managed to stay within a touchdown of their District-9 rivals through three quarters. Cameron started things of in the scoring department. After a nearly scoreless first quarter, Aggie quarterback Roosevelt Gamble scrambled nine yards on a keeper to put Cameron ahead 6-0. The Aggies point after attempt was wide left. The Bronchos failed to score on their first two possessions. But a Cameron fumble, recovered by Broncho Robert Gordon, on the Aggie 35 yard line, set up the first CSU score. Broncho quarterback Glynn Walker completed a pair of passes before freshman Pinkey Hurley put together a 16 yard run to tie the score. Sophomore kicker Kelly Nasworthy hit the point after to put CSU up for the first and only time in the ball game, 7-6.

Cameron answered the Broncho touchdown quickly. Gamble directed the Aggies 61 yards on their next possession before tossing a seven yard touchdown pass to Jack Brownlow. The Aggies fumbled on their two point conversion attempt but still held a narrow 12-7 lead at halftime. The Cameron defense silenced the Broncho offense in the third period and added another touchdown to pull away from CSU 18-7 with less than three minutes left in the period. Charles Washington, CU's top punt returner, ran a Broncho punt back 45 yards for the Aggie score. Again, Cameron failed to convert the two pointer. Adding a pair of fourth period touchdowns, the Aggies put the game away in the final quarter. Back up CU quarterback Levon Davis spoiled a Broncho goal line stand, sneaking in a second down option to put the Aggies ahead 24-7. Aggie Chuck Smith added six more CU points on their next drive, running in a two yarder with five minutes left in the ball game. The Bronchos managed a 68 yard, 11 play drive on their last possession of the game. Quaterbacks Reggie Smith and Walker teammed up on the final drive to set up sophomore Stacey Spencer's one yard run. A Broncho two point attempt failed. The Aggies led 31-13. Smith led all CSU rushers with 71 yards. Hurley followed with 38. Smith and Walker completed six passes for 83 yards on the evening. Freshman Michael Bennett continued to lead the CSU defense, totalling 11 tackles, six unassisted.

Musical marchers enhance gridiron

Brett Barlow, Brian Bass and Jim McDowell handle brass duties in a CSU marching band performance earlier this season.

By Barbara Jaramillo Student writer What has one hundred pieces of equipment, players that come from all over the state, and marches up and down the field in Wantland Stadium on certain autumn Saturday nights? If you guessed the football team, you were close, but not correct. Each year the CSU Marching Band is put together with a handful of CSU's nearly 14,000 students. The band not only consists of music majors who have been recruited from all over the

state, but many students pursuing a variety of different career as well. According to Mr. Lee Rucker, the assistant band director, there are many players who have returned to play this season, but the majority of the band is made up of freshmen. Despite the large number of newcomers, both Rucker and Dr. Kent Kidwell, director of university bands, feel the band is as strong as previous years and they anticipate a good season for their outfit.

Many people may not give the band the credit it deserves, but to all of its players, the band means more than just entertaining football fans during halftime. In addition to their fall performances, marching band members form a 20 piece pep band to support to the CSU basketball team during the spring semester.

With their talent and dedication, there should be no doubt that the marching band is an asset to CSU.

Former Broncho aridders take advanta e of NFL strike By Mary Butler There's a good side and a bad side to most predicaments and the two week old National Football League players strike is no exception. First, the bad side. Fifteen hundred NFL players march on picket lines after the owners refused to give in to the demands of the player's union. The strike wipes out and entire week of NFL action. The good side? Fifteen hundred NFL replacements from places like Norfolk State and Bishop College, along with Oklahoma and Notre Dame, get a shot at an NFL career they may have otherwise never tasted. And among those 1,500 hopefuls are four former CSU gridders; Alvin Ross, Scott Leggett, John Sterling and Joe Hayes. Ross, originally drafted and later released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Leggett who

signed a two year contract with Philadelphia before being cut, were both picked up by the Eagles. Leggett, a 6'5" linebacker fomr Muskogee, was a two time NAIA All-American Broncho and AllDistrict-9 performer. Ross, a highly praised pro prospect from Chicago, joined the CSU team after transferring from Oklahoma University. The 5'11" running back was sidelined for all but one game during his senior year because of eligibility problems. He ran for 71 yards on 15 carries in his only showing. Sterling, tried to break into the pros with the Green Bay Packers, but was also released last year. The 6'3" running back was picked up this season by the Denver Bronchos. An Altus native, Sterling was a 1985 All District-9 performer and

gained All-American honors in 1986. Hayes was a 1983 CSU product. The 5'9" running back transferred from Texas A&I for his final season at CSU. A graduate of the highly regarded South Oak Cliff, Dallas High School, Hayes found his way into the Broncho record books after only one season. The steady runner scored 82 points and 13 touchdowns in 1983. He rushed for 1,095 yards on 157 carries and wound up an Honorable Mention All-American running back. Some may criticize the former Bronchos for participating on the owner's "scab" football teams. But a quote in Monday's Daily Oklahoman by Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Adrian Breen after throwing a four yard touchdown pass against the San Diego Chargers, puts things into perspective.

"That was the thrill of the day. It counts as an NFL touchdown pass. You can put an asterisk behind it or do whatever you want, but it counts," said Breen. The four CSU products may not land pro contracts for their ef-

John Sterling

forts if and when the strike ever ends. And they may not be very popular, for now. But they've all got NFL jerseys on their backs and they've all probably stored up more memories on one Sunday afternoon than many will in a liftime.

The pinnacle Versatile veteran doubles duties in final CSU season Not many people would say, "I came to Oklahoma to get out of California. I wanted to come here to try something new." But Shelley Parent, a native Californian, came to CSU for just that reason. With that in mind, it shouldn't be surprising that Parent, during a time when athletes are finding it difficult to manage sports and studies, participates in two women's varsity sports. "I have to be going all the time. I always need to have something to do," said Parent. "If I didn't, I'd get lazy. If I have a lot to do, I make time for things and make sure they get done," she added. Parent is not only on the varsity volleyball team, but will also find time to participate on the Lady Broncho track team this spring. The fifth year senior joined the CSU athletic program last year after transferring from Cosmnes River Junior College in California. Parent played volleyball for two years at Cosmnes where she was elected captian for both seasons. She was graduated with an associate degree in general education in 1986. Paul Parent, CSU's men's and women's track coach, boosted Parent's decision to transfer to CSU. The similarity in names is not a conicidence. Coach Parent is Shelley's uncle. Parent threw the javelin, discus and shot for the Lady Bronchos last season. With personal bests of 96 feet in the javelin and 105 feet in the discuss, Parent should find a lot of success in her final season this spring.

This fall, Parent is spending her time contributing to the newly re-instated women's volleyball team. "Shelley has a real fine floor game. She passes real well and does a great job of receiving the other team's serves," said volleyball coach Joe Curl. Parent said volleyball is her sport and has set quite a few goals for herself this fall. "I want to be a consistent player. I'd like to keep my serves in-99 percent for the season," said Parent. "I'd also like to be more of a hitter and I'd like to be able to bring the team together," she added. Although the Lady Broncho team's won-loss record appears disappointing this season, Parent is more than pleased with the team and their success. "The team is great. The only problem is that it's our first year. No one knows each other. But we're getting better all the time. I think the team is really starting to come around," said Parent. A product of Elk Grove High School in California, Parent competed in softball, volleyball, basketball and track. She expects to graduate from CSU in May with a bachelor's degree in marketing. The Lady Broncho volleyball team kicked off a string of five road trips yesterday. The cluster of games includes three trips to Texas, a stop in N.M. and visit to Bethany to tangle with Southern Nazarene University. The next CSU home match is scheduled for Oct. 17 against Angelo State at 2 p.m.

Willette 6-3, 6-2, in the tourney final. Biswell's tournament success vaulted her two rungs up the Lady Broncho singles ladder. She handled number three duties in last Tuesday's match against Cooke College. "I want to keep improving and I want to do well in school. It

seems like I had more time to play tennis in high school, but our practices here are really good. I just need to work hard," Biswell said. "I'm really excited about the way things are going. Some people ask me if I'm nervous, but I don't get nervous playing tennis," she added.

Jenni Biswell, a new addition to the Lady Broncho tennis team

"The toughest part of my game is starting off," said freshmen Lady Broncho Jenni Biswell. Enrolling at CSU wasn't any easier for the Plano, Texas native. "College is really different. I'm getting used to it now, but at first it was real hard," said Biswell Now that the beginning is out of the way, things look bright for the rookie netter who has worked her way into number three singles position after only three matches. In the Lady Bronchos' fall season opener against the NCAA division I, Tulsa University, Biswell was the only CSU netter who brought home a win. Competing in the number five singles slot, Biswell bested TU's Julie Skelton 6-3, 6-0. A Plano High graduate, Biswell brings a record of success to the CSU program. She is ranked 43 in Texas women's 18-and-under singles and ninth in doubles. She competed in the Texas high school regional championships as well as independent tournaments. Last week, Biswell added another championship to her collection, sweeping through the third singles flight of the Emporia State Women's Invitational Tournament. Biswell won four matches in a row, in straight sets, and topped teammate Raquelle

There comes a time when it needs a little fertilizer, when a good idea and one pair of hands isn't enough." "We have a strong lineup of speakers who are successful women entrepreneurs," Bryan said. "They will share their experiences with those attending the seminar." Among speakers scheduled are Carol Crockett, director, Women's Business, U.S. Small Business Administration; Virginia Littlejohn, national vice president, National Association of Women Business Owners, Washington, D.C.; Patty Cox Hampton, owner, Oklahoma City 89'ers baseball team; and Michelle Schultz, president, Alliance Bank. The topics to be discussed include planning for success, the right legal organization for your business, advertising and promotion, financing, planning, venture capital and starting a home-based business. A display area will be available with information about agencies and individuals providing assistance for small business. To register, phone Pam Bryan, 341-2980, ext. 2282 or 2836. Registration is $45 for the Oklahoma City or Tulsa seminar, which includes dinner Friday evening following the conference.
