Candidates vie Walters finds Washingon unattractive place OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) —Gov. David Walters is being careful to avoid the word "never" when asked if he'd consider resigning to join a Bill Clinton presidential administration. Walters said he likes being governor better than any job he could imagine in Washington. "I find Washington not to be a very attractive place to influence public policy these days. I find the action of the state level to be much more gratifying and much more productive," he said. "I think we stand at the verge of achieving substantial change in Oklahoma," Walters said, "I find all that to be much more attractive than service in Washington. "So while I'm not going to say never no one's asked me and I'm not asking," he said.

Gates gets prize for "Ig Nobel" peace method CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — The winner of the satirical Ig Nobel Peace Prize was former Los Angeles Police Chief Daryl Gates for "his uniquely compelling methods of bringing people together." The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Museum and the satirical Journal of Irreproducible Results announced the winners Thursday, honoring people "whose achievements cannot or should not be reproduced." Gates was head of the department when Rodney King, a black motorist, was beaten by white officers, and when riots followed the acquittal of those officers on brutality charges.

Federal pocketbooks may loosen; college money may come easier By Tami Watson Staff Writer President George Bush made his contribution to Higher Education this summer by signing a reauthorization of the Higher Education Act, "Higher Education Amendments of 1992," which will remain in effect for the next five years. The reauthorization, geared toward lower-income and middle-income students, promises larger Pell Grants and bigger student loans. Despite his support, the National Education Association Representative Assembly recently gave Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton the NEA endorsement for the 1992 presidential election, giving him 88 percent of the votes — the highest ever for a presidential candidate. The NEA bases its support largely on Clinton's track record as governor of Arkansas, where he made giving 100 percent of high school students an opportunity to attend college his top priority. When Clinton first took office in 1979, only 9.7 percent of

Arkansas adults had attended college four years — the lowest percentage in the nation. Few Arkansas students were prepared to attend college. The rate of Arkansas highschool graduates attending college has more than tripled to 51.3 percent. Clinton established a program that allowed parents to buy short- and long-term college bonds, not taxed in Arkansas and set up the Academic Challenge Scholarship program which gives $1,000 to every middle-income and low-income Arkansas student who takes the core curriculum, earns at least a C average and scores at least 19 on the ACT. Clinton promises the same changes in higher education nationally by making changes in the student loan system. Clinton's new loan program would allow all students to borrow money to pay for college, regardless of family income. In return, students would pay back a portion of their income or partcipate in a national service program. Clinton hopes his plan will attract middle-class parents now confined by college expenses.

Mistrial decided once again in professor's murder case OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A juror's family emergency has brought a second mistrial in the case of a girl accused of setting a fire that killed a university professor. An Oklahoma County juvenile court judge ended the trial Thursday after a juror told her of what was described only as "an emergency family matter." Six jurors had been seated, with no alternates.

A new trial has been set for Nov. 16. Shariell Brisby, the 13-yearold suspect, is charged with first-degree murder and arson in an April fire that killed University of Central Oklahoma German Professor Gerhard Kallienke. The girl and a 16year-old friend deny setting the fire. The 16-year-old, Jacqueline James, is to be tried as an adult on the same charges.

Theater to present musical The University of Central Oklahoma Music Theater will present "Man of La Mancha" in Mitchell Hall Theater beginning Thursday night. The musical, directed and

choreographed by Tamara Long, will be performed Oct. 8, 9 and 10 at 8 p.m., Oct. 11 at 2 p.m. and Oct. 23 and 24 at 8 p.m. For ticket information call ext. 2513.

Another response to a response

A noble purpose •Ross Perot's vow to debate the real issues could be the lifesaver for the voting public He stood before a crowded audience in his conservative navy blue suit and red-and-white striped tie. He spoke in that high-pitched Texas drawl — and took his place at the starting line of the presidential race. With 29 days now left until election day, American voters now have a choice of three men to run the United States. And only 29 days left to find out what each one thinks about the issues facing the country. Independent Ross Perot vows to debate the issues. He said he wants to run an "issues-oriented" campaign and refuses to answer any questions from the press about his personal life or business. "I thought that both political parties would address the problems that faced the nation. We gave them a chance. They didn't do it," Perot explained in his announcement speech. But Perot's stance could very well be the lifesaver for the 1992 race for the White House. For the past few months, the Democratic candidate, Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, and President George Bush have both played a game of "Look-what-awful-things-he's-done." Both candidates are very good at pointing fingers and shifting blame and accusations to the other side without even considering the issues. Bush and his team of supporters constantly belittle Clinton for dodging the draft and not dodging an alleged affair with Gennifer Flowers. Clinton's army creates a joke anytime Vice President Dan Quayle speaks — or for that matter breathes. Since Perot stepped out of the race in July, both candidates have tip-toed around the issues of a failed economy, a growing number of unemployed workers, an uncountable number of homeless people, escalating taxes, sky-rocketing health care costs and an almost uneducated future generation — hoping the voters and the media would not notice. Perot may have only jumpstarted his campaign to repair his ego from the name-calling after his departure, but, whatever the reason, if his presence will keep debates on the issues in first place rather than the name-calling and game-playing the American people have seen so far in this race — his candidacy will have served a noble purpose.

am responding to Brian Houston's response to my first letter. Mr. Houston assumes (wrongly) that I am against family values. On the contrary, I think all people want a functioning, loving and supportive family, but the concept of "family" has changed dramatically. We now

have one-parent families, grandparent and foster care families and even though the fundamentalists won't admit it, we also have gay and lesbian households. These are the facts and we cannot deny them. Family values come from other sources — non-government sources. An attempt to do so, be-

cause of our vast new definition of family, will alienate significant portions of our population, and it will not serve the common good.

—Neal Kerr UCO student

No prayer lea ds to country's demise

would like to comment on the headline in the Sept. 22 isue of The Vista newspaper. The title asked the question, "Why Should Prayer Be Allowed?" As a Christian, and one who comes from the old school, I believe prayer is our only communication with the founder of this great United States of America, built on religious principles and founded by God. The Constitution does not prohibit prayer in public schools or colleges. It only

addresses separation of the powers. "between church & state." The moral decadence and decaying of the family values present in our society today is evidence of straying from godly principles of which this great nation was founded. With leading issues today such as gay rights and abortion issues, we need only to go to God's word (The Bible) for our answers and seek His wisdom and guidance. It is sad for those who don't believe in God. Wake up, America! Did we not

learn anything about the Roman Empire and it's self destruction? No enemy was strong enough to overpower it or destroy it. No, the Roman Empire crumbled from within, going down the same road that America is now going. And we're going down that road at an ever increasing rate of speed... As a mother of three grown children, and a subscriber to The Vista, I thank you for your time in reading this letter. -Loretta Thomas

Right story, wrong picture I picked up my issue of The

Vista the other day and

was amazed at the picture you ran with the lead story. Just what exactly are you people doing? I suppose it makes perfect sense to you that along with a serious article on women in politics that a large picture of a little girl is exactly the sort of illustration needed. Society has been handing a message to women for hundreds if not thousands of years, namely "You are insignificant, you have nothing of consequence to offer

or contribute and as far as anyone with any mind whatsoever is concerned, you are merely a child. You should be treated like a child because you are silly and cute. Be seen and not heard." If this sounds radical to you, then so be it. Still, one can not ignore the reality that you did indeed publish a picture of a small child along with a story that had absolutely nothing to do with children. Not only did you publish this picture but you made sure that it was extremely large. In fact, the

picture is quite probably bigger than the article itself! Once again, an Oklahoma publication Las shown just how liberal and open-minded it really is. Thanx. -Kimberlee Jean Brown Editor's note: The photo in the issue in question was what is called a 'wild photo,' that is, a photo placed for impact. It had nothing to do with the story adjacent to it.

Orwell's prophecies loom... amily values! Defined by whom? Win the peace! What? How in the hell do you win something that is obtained by giving up? America, we must be a superpower! Who is running this world anyway? What do we have to fear? Godless hordes of nonthinking, prejudiced youth listening to and relying upon ignorance spouted by talking heads and corporate empires. The vision of 1984 is not only here, but the people of this lost era have bought into the illusion; payment is one's freedom. The division of this country is coming to a head. The factions are dividing against each other. The people can only take so much, and then, will again revolt. The oppression of the system is being felt like never before. Some may not feel the oppression as they sit back contentedly in midAmerica – characterized by a Bible-belt, affluent, predominately

white, desensitized cable t.v. existence. Throughout this land people are preparing for THE DAY. Look around! Take off the blinders that blur your vision! What happened in L.A. is not the first incident. The fuse that was lit years ago is resurfacing. The choice is not for whom you vote in the election. The choice is not for morals. The choice is not for some prescribed tablet thrown down upon us from capitol heights. We, the people, do not need a leader to divide us! We, the people, need to stand together and choose to walk free! The choice is easy for some. Tax cuts and/or taxes to build. There is no simple solution. There is no simple answer, even when it is written on walls. What can I do as a student, what can I do as a believer in the value of freedom? If the nation today is divided? Is it a black thing or a

white thing or a red thing or a yellow thing? Is it divided by the Republicans and Democrats, by the Christians and the Muslim, by the pragmatists and the rationalists, by those who watch "Eye on America" and those who watch "Ren and Stimpy," by those who would enslave us with rhetoric and those who would set us free? Choose your sides! Abolish apathy! This point in time is the only time you've got! Get involved, whether it be by supporting your school, your personal belief system of the Constitution that guarantees you the right of be involved. Let your voice be heard for whatever it is in which you believe. To the world, you are the world. Accept your responsibility and do something about the state of this God-forsaken country. Act now, tomorrow may be too late. —Andrew M. Boatman Jr. UCO student

Alcohol Awareness Week, "Feel the Power of Positive Choices," through Oct. 9 will feature a personality workshop, an addiction talk show and Soberfest at the University of Central Oklahoma. BACCHUS, Boosting Alcohol Consciousness Concerning Health of University Students, and COSAFE, Campus Organization for Substance Abuse Free Environment, are sponsoring Alcohol Awareness Week. Monday a literature booth handed out red ribbons and key chains representing alcohol awareness in Centennial Square; and a "True Colors" workshop based on the MyersBriggs personality tests was offered at the University Center. A talk show headed by a panel of speakers will discuss addictions such as work, food, alcohol, cocaine and sex in the liberal arts auditorium at 9:40 to 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday. The main event, Soberfest, will feature a live band "The Hungry Five," and free hot dogs and soft drinks from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Wednesday at Centennial Square. The Alcohol Fact Sheet shows that more than three out of four college students use alcohol regularly, and more than two out of five engage in binge drinking. Some estimates also attribute as much as 80 percent of all college discipline problems to alcohol and other drug use. In addition, alcoholrelated highway deaths are the No. 1 killer of 15 to 24-yearolds. The Campus Police Annual Report showed alcohol-related crimes on campus have decreased since 1989. In 1989 there were 27 alcohol-related crimes, in 1990 there were 25 and in 1991 there were 19. Driving Under the Influence citations were one for each year. This year, from January through August, the alcohol-related crime rate is 10, with two DUI citations.

The 1992 yearbook of the University of Central Oklahoma, Bronze Book, was awarded first place by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (CSPA) for college yearbooks. The yearbook was critiqued and judged by the CSPA based on concept, design, writing, coverage and photography on a 1000 point system. In order for a book to win first place it must score 850 to 1000 points. The top 15 percent of the yearbooks are awarded first place. "We would have gotten a lot better critique if we had more help," said Julie Taylor, UCO senior and former editor of the Bronze Book. "Our adviser last year wasn't on campus so we pretty much did the book by ourselves." Taylor, a magazine journalism major, was also the editor when the Bronze Book won the Medalist Award the year before, an award which only the top 10 percent of the first place winning books are awarded. She said she was proud when she found out the 1992 yearbook had won first. "We are happy to get the award, " said Taylor," I think it will be good for the journalism department."

The enrollment center at the University of Central Oklahoma is preparing itself for the upcoming rush of spring enrollment beginning Nov. 3. Now is the perfect time for students to see their advisors for degree checks and enrollment clearance while traffic is still slow, said Suzanne Underwood, academic adviser. "Many students are unaware of degree checks before graduation," said Underwood. "Students with 30 hours before graduation and those who have at least 70 hours completed need to come in for a degree check. The sooner they come in the better." This is also a good time for students who do not have a 2.5 grade point average to get cleared on the computer for enrollment ahead of time. "If cleared ahead of time, they won't be told that they have an advisor's hold at sectioning and stand in line again after waiting to speak to an adviser," said Underwood. The class schedule for spring enrollment will be out at the end of October, Underwood said.

Day of courtesy goes unnoticed LONDON (AP) Bullies, rude shopkeepers and fenderbenders are all signs of another decline in Britain — that of good manners, the Polite Society says. The group on Friday marked the fifth national Day of Courtesy but the event passed largely unnoticed, as founder the Rev. Ian Gregory expected. For the Day of Courtesy, the Polite Society promoted adherence to its Code of Courteous Conduct. The code calls for members to be kind to everyone, "exercise the maximum selfcontrol" in trying circumstances, and abstain from offensive language. —

Scientists map out chromosomes NEW YORK (AP) — Scientists have made the most complete maps yet of individual human chromosomes, another advance in an ambitious effort to figure out the body's genetic blueprint and someday find the causes of many diseases. The researchers mapped out the most significant portion of the Y chromosome, which makes fetuses develop as males, and of chromosome 21, which is linked to such diseases as Down syndome and some cases of Alzheimer's.

UCO suffers first setback, 26-9 By Justin Harper Sports Editor Central Oklahoma's football team went into Saturdays Homecoming game versus East Texas State with a four game winning streak and a No. 14 national ranking in the NCAA II poll. However, ETSU was not impressed and the ungracious guests handed UCO it's first setback of the year 26-9. Still, the Bronchos deserve to stay in the rankings with a 4-1 record and are still looking better after five games than they have in recent years. The Broncho defense, who again played well, ran into a very good team with a very, very good kicker. Sophomore Billy Watkins booted four field goals for the Lions to pad the final score and continuously put points on the board for ETSU. Lions quarterback Greg Centilli completed 16 of 29 for 273 yards and two touchdowns against a Broncho secondary that boasted the highest ranked pass efficency defense in NCAA II. The Broncho offense was limited to 157 yards as the ETSU defense held UCO standout tailback Tyrone Jones to 64 yards on 18 carries. Quarterback Mark Reiland, who was pressured all day, was sacked four times and completed just 3 of 13 passes for 31 yards. UCO jumped out on top early on a Lee Stamper 31 yard field goal, but it was the only lead the Bronchos would hold. Watkins booted a 23 yarder to tie the score after UCO had fumbled on it's own 17 yard line. The second quarter though was the difference in the ball game. ETSU scored 17 points with Centilli hitting touch-

down passes of seven yards to Billy Minor and 46 yards to Anthony Brooks, and Watkins hitting a 42 yard field goal. The Bronchos trailed 20-3 at the half. Despite being on the field for long stretches the UCO defense tightened up in the secod half. The Bronchos held the Lions scoreless in the third quarter but could not manage a scoring threat of their own. "Our defense was on the field a whole lot, and our offense was in terrible shape as far as field posi-

tion," said UCO head coach Gary Howard. "We've got to be better balanced, our offense has to be on the field a lot longer for us to beat people like East Texas State." The Bronchos managed to outscore the Lions 7-6 in the final stanza. ETSU added two more Watkins field goal's but the Bronchos answered with their best drive of the day. UCO marched 80 yards in 10 plays and scored when reserve tailback Keith Martin scored from three yards out.

Students wanted: new board to meet, plan UCO activities By Steve Curry

Student Writer The new Student Programming Board will hold an organizational meeting to discuss future University of Central Oklahoma student activities and will be held at 3 p.m., Oct. 14 in the University Center's Frontier Room, said Susan Thompson, director of student activities. "The board is the restructured cultural arts committee...we're changing the name to get more students involved in campus activities," she said. The board will decide on the activities that come to UCO such as speakers, comedians, magicians, musicians and other groups, Thompson said. Funding for the board comes student activities fees paid at the time of enrollment, so all the activities are free to students. "We encourage students to bring their families, and the community is also welcome to attend the events," she said. The events are usually held in the University Center or in Mitchell Hall. Any student is welcome to join the board. "The more students we have, the better it will be. It will be really good for the campus if we have a lot of people active in it," Thompson said. Thompson and Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of Student Services, are the co-sponsors of the board. For more information contact Thompson at ext. 2336.

Wright is being sponsored by the University of Central Oklahoma Circle K Club. The Circle K Club is a campus organization affiliated with the Kiwanis Club. The Circle K Club was reorganized last spring after being ineffective since 1969 at UCO. All UCO students are invited to hear Wright speak. For more information, contact Jalal Daneshfar at ext. 2377.

Business club opens chapter Mabel Basset Correctional Center for women in Oklahoma City will be the first maximum security prison to ever be chartered as a Phi Beta Lambda chapter, a national business leadership organization, with the help of the University of Central Oklahoma's own PBL chapter.

hoped to set up a site for training student teachers when the PBL business club idea also came up, said Chessar. Now that Mabel Bassett is accredited by the state, joining PBL would give the students a chance to be involved nationally in an up-state publication and in the community, said Chessar. "Being involved in the PBL chapter would promote more aggressive business leadership and assist them in establishing a career goal. The club would also facilitate the move from the penal system to the actual work system, " Chessar said. UCO's PBL chapter will be
