The Student Voice Since 1903

Lawmakers explain their function in higher education

By Roy Howe Staff Writer

Buttafuoco pleads guilty to rape MINEOLA, N.Y. (AP) — Joey Buttafuoco, who repeatedly denied having sex with Amy Fisher, pleaded guilty today to third-degree rape for sleeping with the teen-ager before her 17th birthday.

"On July 2, 1991, I had sexual relations with Amy Fisher at the Freeport Motel," Buttafuoco declared in a clear voice at a hearing in Nassau County Court.

Mary Jo Buttafuoco did not attend the hearing.

"She is very, very upset," said Buttafuoco's lawyer, Dominic Barbara. "She's been crying all night."

Buttafuoco was accused of having sex with Fisher when she was 16. The age of consent in New York is 17.

A gathering Tuesday titled "A Forum on the Future of Higher Education" brought a panel of state lawmakers and the Chancellor for Higher Education, Hans Brisch, to-

Speaker Glen Johnson, House of Representatives members Angela Monson and Ray Vaughn.

Senators Mike Fair, Jerry Pierce and Mark Snyder along with Brisch also served as panel members.

Prior to addressing questions, panelists gave short statements concerning higher education—funding dominated their remarks.

"The theme that we do have is student success," Brisch said. "We must have the resource base to allow the faculty to do their job ...We need to fight as hard as we can to provide for resources for our students for a number of years and be funded on a similar bases as students in other states."

Brisch said higher education needs a larger slice of the state's economic pie and should "lay out eloquently and forcefully" what higher education's needs are.

"Our (higher education) share of the pie continues to decline, especially over the past years from about 18.5 percent in 1980 to about 15.5 this time.

"We (higher education) need to work as successfully as we can with our legislature and our governor because that's where the decisions are being made," Brisch said.

Fair, with constituents in northwest Oklahoma City, said he was one of the senators who voted to tap the state's rainy day monies to help fund higher education and explained this was a move that voters questioned.

"I think that you in higher education are going to have a greater responsibility than in the past. This is a time where people are questioning where their tax money is going," he said.

In addition, Fair said that if an Anita Hill Chair is established within the higher education system "you can count me out to increase any funding for higher education.

Be careful with the money you are trust with," he said.

Monson, Vaughn, Johnson and Snyder echoed the fiscal concerns and added that remedial courses, duplicating programs and the way money is allocated are also concerns that need to be addressed.

Somalia strategy must be developed before more lives lost

"covlAt14." POP")

M

ore troops, as well as heavy tanks, armored personnel carriers, helicopters and gunships are being sent to Somalia as a result of the killings of several American soldiers.

But why?

Yes, the United Nations moved in to try to provide security for Somalia in a time of civil war. But how is the U.N., and especially the United States going to go about it?

At first the military goal was to capture and punish General Mohammed Farah Aidid, the aggressor in Somalia. Last month, Secretary of State Warren Christopher delivered a paper to Secretary General Boutros BoutrosGhali of the United Nations specifying initiatives that would concentrate on political reconciliation instead.

But, at press time, the strategy was still unclear.

President Clinton met with his top national security advisers to review the situation earlier in the week.

The Congress has opposed the presence of American troops in Somalia.

"The administration needs a plan and needs it now.

We're not hearing it yet," Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said after a closed session Tuesday.

Christopher said that the United States wants to withdraw its forces, "but not before our job is done of providing some security."

The number of Americans who have lost their lives in Mogadishu continues to rise. Television reports have showed U.S. soldiers being drug around on a rope like a cat plays with his dead mouse.

The U.S. and U.N. need to make up their minds what strategy they are going to take and follow through with it as quickly as possible.

The U.N. cannot afford for the U.S. troops to back out, but a specific plan must be developed before any more soldiers lose their lives.

Greeks upset with letter, defend system

T

his in response to the let ter in the Oct. 5, 1993 edition of The Vista titled, "Student Voices Concern on Voting."

As a part of the Greek system, we did not appreciate the comments on the fraterinties. It is very stereotypical and Parvez probably does not even know the people themselves, just what he has seen on Animal House, and Revenge of the Nerds movies.

The Greeks display their lead-

ership in many campus-wide activities, i.e., cheer squad, student senators, band, guard, intramural sports, pompon, President's Leadership Council, Residence Hall Association, Honor Societies, clubs dealing with our majors —I think you get the point. Also, every fraternity and sorority have scholarship programs where they need to maintain a cetain GPA. Parvez also mentioned that the school needs to reform the election process to include students

from all setments of the population and make voting easy and available. It is not that difficult to walk up, hand someone your ID, and put an X on a piece of paper.

Itjust goes to show you who cares about our campus — the ones who vote!

The rainy day monies released by lawmakers last session took place less than two minutes before they were to legally adjourn.

"We should address funding for higher education earlier during the session," Vaughn said.

"Fund those (higher education) needs and then those others that need attention. It would be a much cleaner process. It was nervewracking last session," he said.

Questions Questions from AAUP members ranged from auditing practices to an education requirement for members of an institution's governing board.

The association's president, Tom Guild, said that the questions presented to lawmakers were submitted by members to the AAUP executive committee where they also formulated some of their own.

Fair approached a question from an AAUP member who wanted to know if there is a movement in the state to have one university and the rest to be subuniversities.

"I don't think so," said Fair, but if I were a dictator I would do that.

"The problem you get is that

everyone has their own interests in mind and not that of higher education as a whole.

"I could care less about UCO except how you serve higher education as a whole," Fair said.

"I think some of our four-year colleges should be two-year colleges, I think some of the programs offered should be canceled and I'd be willing to close the OU Law School," Fair said.

Brisch addressed a question about the auditing procedures at learning sites.

"If there are auditing procedures, let's use them to the fullest degree," he said.

"An audit is like a report card and helps you fine tune your institution to the fullest degree. We need the public to see what the report card loolcs like," Brisch said.

The AAUPs secretary, Billye Peterson, questioned the panel on who would make the decision if a program is deleted because it duplicates another institution's?

"We are talking unnecessary duplication here," said Brisch. "...Can we as a state afford to have every program everywhere? The answer is no," he said.

A question presented to the lawmakers concerning governing

board members not being required to have obtained a certain level of education sparked Pierce to reply, "I think there are more pressing questions than this."

Pierce said that balance is the main goal in placing members to oversee an institution.

He said the governor appoints board members to institutional boards and that he is not going to appoint someone who will embarrass him.

Guild said the forum was organized to bring those who set policies in motion together with those who are affected in higher education.

"I think it' s important to bring the legislative leaders and other higher education leaders to our campus to have a give and take in what we are concerned about and what they are concerned about.

"It gives us an idea of what we can expect if we have funding or other issues that we would take to the legislature.

Nigh, who was praised highly at the forum by the lawmakers for his ability to lead the university and raise funds in an innovative manner, said he was pleased with the exchange of views and that the forum was a great idea.

Fire departments observe National Fire Prevention Week

By Jennifer Palmer Student Writer

This week has been declared National Fire Prevention Week.

However, Public Education Officer for the Edmond Fire Department, Major Doug Hall said that with the size and growth of Edmond, it is quickly becoming "Awareness Month."

The theme, "Get Out, Stay OutYour Fire Safety Response," focuses primarily on the program Exit Drills In The Home (EDITH).

"People should develop aplan.

A place to meet out front of the home, designate someone in advance to call 911, and most importantly, to have a working smoke detector in the home," Hall said.

Hall said that, in general, over 80 percent of the homes he sees in Edmond do have smoke detectors. But, of those, 40 percent of the detectors do not have working batteries in them.

With Fire Prevention Week arousing interests, some students may wonder about the fire safety of the dorms.

When asked about the safety of dorms on the University of Central Oklahoma Campus, Hall said that it "would not be a bad idea" to protect every room with a detector, but there is not a necessity.

"Throughout the structure there are hard-wire smoke detectors on every floor. They are covered and tested annually," Hall said.

"Many ...injuries and deaths could be prevented through the use of functioning smoke detectors in homes. Smoke detectors and planned, practiced escape plans are essential to surviving residential fires," said State Health Commissioner Thomas D. Peace, Ph. D. For Fire Prevention Week, Hall said that the fire department organizes no real activities for this week because they "work upon request all year."

Scratch-and-sniff opera stinks LONDON (AP) — A scratch-and-sniff opera is wafting around northern England — and it stinks!

As well as being a delight to eyes and ears, Opera North's production of Prokofiev's "The Love of the Three Oranges" is trying to get the audience's noses into the act.

Members of the audience are invited to add to the ambiance of the show by using scratch-and-sniff cards.

Their cue for releasing one of six aromas is when the chorus sings: "What is that bad smell?" An actor then holds up a number corresponding to the right odor.

"The thing that makes the most people laugh is No. 3, — a fart," said Anita Morris, spokeswoman for Opera North, one of Britain's leading regional companies.

The cards also hold scents for gunpowder for a shooting scene, antiseptic for a hospital, dog food for the chef's kitchen, oranges and perfume.

Number of poor rises in U S. SUITLAND, Md. (AP) — The number of poor Americans jumped to 36.9 million last year, more than at any time since John F. Kennedy was president, the Census Bureau reported today.

The figures show 1.2 million Americans were added to the poverty rolls — a fact analysts attributed to lingering unemployment amid a slow recovery from the recession Poor Americans accounted for about 14,5 percent of the population last year, up three-tenths of a point from 1991. It was the highest rate since 15.2 percent in 1983.

The government defines a poor person as someone whose income is below the national poverty line. For a family of four in 1992: the poverty line was $14,335. For someone living alone it was $7,143. .

Former priest pleads guilty to 41 counts of child molestation NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (AP) — A former Roman Catholic priest today pleaded guilty to molesting dozens of children three decades ago as his victims watched in a crowded courtroom.

James A. Porter, 58, who left the priesthood in the 1970s, pleaded guilty to 41 counts in Bristol County Superior Court where his trial had been scheduled to begin later this month.

Sentencing was set for Dec. 6.

Porter had been charged with abusing 32 children who are now adults, and only began publicly telling their stories less than two years ago when one of the victims began building a case against them.

Prosecutors said Porter molested his victims on church property.

Porter had admitted previously that he molested "a number of children" and said he was a "very sick man." But he hoped to block the charges by arguing they were outdated.

Porter, who is married and has four children and lives in Minnesota, was convicted last year of molesting his children's baby sitter in the 1980s.

Hee Haw to end production after 24 years, TNN to air reruns NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The cornfield from "Hee Haw" has been placed in storage. Nurse Good Body has treated her last patient. The Empty Arms Hotel has accepted its final guest.

"Hee Haw," the cornball TV show that's out of production for the first time since 1969, has gone to hayseed heaven.

But cable TV's The Nashville Network gives another sanaaaaaaa-lute to the hour-long show by airing reruns every Saturday at 10 p.m. EDT. Ridiculed by some but embraced by others because of its Dogpatch look and outlook, "Hee Haw" became one of the longest running programs in TV history. There are 600 shows in the vault for rebroadcast.

The last syndicated "Hee Haw" show aired in June. Except for seven months in 1971, the program had been broadcast constantly for 24 years.

BSA hosts police harrassment panel

By Joyce Kirtley Staff Writer 11■111.,

The University of Central Oklahoma's Black Student Association held a police harassment panel discussion to improve relations between the police and minorities at its meeting Monday.

Bill Citty, media relations of the Oklahoma City police department, and police officers Clarance Powers of Oklahoma City and Gerald Dixon of Edmond were members of the panel.

All three stated that the media does "add fuel to the fire" in the relationship between police and minorities.

Dixon.

When asked to define police harassment, Dixon said that harassment is a state of mind.

Powers attributed bad relations between young people and police to the lack of respect for authority.

"The breakdown of values in society as a whole is a reason for the problems. Young people don't want to follow mainstream values that were passed on to their parents," said Powers.

"We decided to have this panel to raise student awareness. The tension builds as we keep to ourselves. There are no programs where we can meet officers, so we can never wipe out the misconceptions," said Robert Page, BSA president.

Members of the BSA asked questions such as what is a gang, or why is a bigger deal made out of black crime than white crime?

Powers defined a gang as three or more youths who happen to be involved in criminal activities that is a detriment to the health and welfare of a community.

Citty received applause after saying that it is wrong to label all black kids as gang members.

"This is the first time I' ye been on a panel. I mainly speak at neighborhood watch groups," said Dixon.

"About a year or so ago, members of the Edmond community were worried about gangs, but there have been no incidents. It's not much of a problem here," said

Association observes National Car Care Month, provides free maintenance checks

By Bobbi Beldon

Student Writer

The American Automobile Association (AAA) will conduct free auto maintenance checks from 8 a.m.-4 p.m., Oct. 11 through Oct. 15.

Public agencies and private enterprise will join forces to sponsor the checks in recognition of AAA's National Car Care Month.

Thousands of cars on the

nation's roads are polluting the air, wasting fuel and creating hazards due to deficiencies such as worn brakes and tires, faulty steering systems, leaky mufflers and neglected engines, according to the AAA. "Most of these problems exist due to a lack of driver knowledge.

Many drivers fail to recognize all but major mechanical problems.

By the time these major problems appear it may be too late, " said Rick Bickford, director of public and government relations for

AAA. Free inspection lanes will be established for checking safety and emissions, on a first come, firstserved basis at the AAA office, 3525 N.W. 23.

"National Car Care Month is designed as a public service to help drivers learn more about the condition of their vehicles. Then, alined with this knowledge, vehicle owners can prevent accidents, cut their fuel and repair costs and help clean up our air," Bickford added.

Omniplex to present exhibit on bats during October

By Todd Smethers Student Writer

Through the month of October, the Omniplex Science Museum will present a special exhibit on bats.

The biology department of the University of Central Oklahoma supplied some of the bats on display. Most were loaned by the Oklahoma Museum of Natural History.

"People have had a long fasci-

nation with bats," said Beth Bussey, education director of Omniplex.

"Some of our names for them suggest we don' t understand what to make of these wonderful, flying mammals."

Bats are mammals. They give birth to live young, nurse their young and hibernate.

"By any name, bats are wondrous creatures," Bussey said.

Oklahoma has 20 species of bats. Twelve species will be displayed. The remaining eight are

rare or endangered.

Other displays will include a bat house where children, or adults, can hang upside-down, a model bat cave, an etching table, a video presentation, photographs and information panels with bat facts.

"There is a lot of misinformation about bats," Bussey said. "We want to give real, true information."

The Omniplex is located in the Kirkpatrick Center Museum Complex at 2100 NE 52 St. For further information, call 424-5545.

Students have new options to learn about financial aid

By Jennifer Palmer Student Writer With the ever increasing cost of college education, University of Central Oklahoma students have new options to learn about and apply for financial aid.

Many students "feel like they're not qualified," and "a lot of students just don't know that money is available," said Margaret Howell, UCO scholarship coordinator.

More than 5,000 award statements for scholarships, grants and aid have been sent out this semester, Howell said.

"Students can apply for aid through next May for reimbursement for ' 92 fall semester," Howell said, "but there is a lot more available to more students."

The National Commission on Student Financial Assistance, a U.S. Congressional Subcommittee, stated that $6.6 billion of the $7 billion for students went unused, mainly because students did not know where to look for aid.

What could possibly help more people is utilizing the newly available resources on financial aids

and scholarships to overview all the options available, Howell said.

For UCO students, there are several new ways to look into student aid and scholarship opportunities.

The financial aid office has a free, nationally-linked "match maker" system to help students locate outside scholarships.

"The office is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and right now there is no charge.

But, in the near future, there may be. I'd encourage students to use this program, " Howell said.

Also, Prentice Hall publishing company has recently released two new guides in helping with the search.

The first guide is the newest edition of the bestseller "The Scholarship Book," (fourth ed.)

by Daniel J. Cassidy. The book covers every major field of study, lists private-sector scholarships, grants, loans, internships and contestprizes available to undergraduates in the U.S. The book is available in most bookstores.

The data for the book was compiled from the National Scholarship Research Service, a privatesector financial aid institution

where Cassidy is the president.

For math and science students, Prentice Hall also offers "The

Prentice Hall Guide to SCHOLARSHIPS and FELLOWSHIPS for Math and Science Students."

Written by Mark Kantrowitz and Joann P. DiGennaro, it offers 250 listings of college scholarships, graduate fellowships, 84 contests and competitions and contests, summer programs and research programs in engineering, math, and more.

DiGennaro helped to establish the Center for Excellence in Education in 1983. The center is a private, non-profit educational foundation for science and mathematics education through innovative programs.

Using these options may help, but Howell also suggested to "start early, so you'll know something (about the aid) before you start school."

Freshmen, especially, should start looking into the financial aid office as early as January 1994 for the next fall semester, and every student should be starting January through March to get the best results when looking for aid at UCO, Howell said.

Entrepreneurship teaches students how to target potential ventures

By Bobbi Beldon Student Writer

While brainstorming in class, the teacher and the students thought of an idea. The class was Entrepreneurship, the teacher was Tom Bergman and the idea was the Lugbuster.

According to Webster's Dictionary, an entrepreneur is a person who organizes and manages a business undertaking, assuming the risk for the sake of profit.

Entrepreneurship teaches students how to target high-potential ventures by finding and evaluating ideas.

Bergman and a student continued working on the Lugbuster idea, a device that helps remove over-tightened lug nuts from tires.

It is similar to the tire iron but with a different twist.

According to Bergman, evaluating the idea is a four-step process.

The first step is to find the idea and to ascertain that there are sufficient numbers of people who

have the problem and recognize it.

These people are the target market and must be looking for a solution. The target market must have enough money to pay for the solution. The solution needs to fit the need of the target market.

Next the student will learn how to acquire the proper financing.

"Which class you decide to take or all of them depend on what stage you are at in your potential business," said Bergman.

projects in the future.

Bergman and his wife Kathy, own a desktop publishing business, which Kathy operates from their home.

Bergman said Kathy is the conservative part of their team and finds he is the creative one.

Bergman stresses that if the students have a viable concept, obtaining money should be no problem.

The final step is to learn how to hang on to the deal. Bergman teaches many ways to do this, one being to retain the veto with the company.

Bergman teaches two additional business classes to help students.

Small Business Management

Bergman received an MBA from Northeastern State in Tahlequah. He worked at Ford Motor Company as an engineer for two years. Next, he became a certified public accountant and worked at Arthur Anderson.

Bergman has owned several small businesses and has invented a few products. He is busy working on the marketing of two games and plans to explore additional

"The business failure statistics are low. Most businesses that fail do so unnecessarily. Being prepared will eliminate most risks. If you are adequately prepared, you can succeed." said Bergman.

Bergman is a man who looks to the future. He is currently working on a Ph.D. in Educational Tech-

nology at Oklahoma University.

The doctorate studies the future of computers and the role of electronics in education.

Bergman has a few tips to help students obtain a patent. Instead of using a lawyer, seek out a local patent agent. This tip can save students thousands of dollars.

Lawyers should be used to defend against patent infringements.

Never go to a mail-order patent service. This service is not personalized to help students on an individual basis.

A patent was pursued for the Lugbuster, but was hard to obtain. Due to the design, the Lugbuster would not qualify for a utility patent. Further research showed a design patent would probably not be worth the effort.

Although the Lugbuster idea did not make it to market, many lessons were learned, and Bergman uses the experience as a teaching tool for his students.

"The cause of success is persistence," Bergman said. "A person determined enough will not let failures get them down and will eventually succeed."

85 Truman Scholarships to be awarded to students in 1994

By Jojo Takyi-Micah Student Writer Eighty-five Truman Scholarships will be awarded in 1994, by the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation to junior level students at four-year colleges and universities.

The $30,000 scholarship will be awarded on merit basis to students who are committed to careers in government or elsewhere in the public sector.

"That is all the law says. It could be somebody who wants to be a civil servant or a politician," said Dr. Randall L. Jones Jr., chairperson of the political science department and University of Central Oklahoma's representative for the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation.

The Truman Scholarship works to "attract bright people to work for government," Jones

said. "It pays your way, junior, senior and two years of graduate work."

The Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation was established

by Congress in 1975 as the official federal memorial to honor the thirty-third President of America.

"Truman was committed to public service and education," Jones said.

Two UCO students have received Truman scholarships in the past. Ben Odum,who won in 1979, is now an attorney in Norman and is active in the Democratic Party for the fourth Congressional District. Joycelyn Stevens, who won in 1992, is a graduate student in Georgetown University School of International Service in Washington.

"Last year, a third UCO student, Elaine Paparonis, was a finalist, came real close but didn't win, "Jones said.

Selected scholars are eligible

to receive $3,000 for the senior year and $27,000 for graduate studies. They must have extensive records of public and community service, outstanding leadership potential, a desire to influence public policies and possess intellectual strength and analytical abilities.

Every year one "state" scholarship is available to a qualified resident nominee in each of the 50 states.

"Under law, somebody in Oklahoma has to win," Jones said, "there could be more than one".

Every institution of higher learning can nominate up to three students for the 1994 competition.

Potential candidates desiring more information should contact Jones at 341-2980, Ext. 5840 or Room 102-I in the Liberal Arts Building before Nov. 1, 1993.

Edmond citizens to vote Oct. 12 on road bond

By Anthony Tompkins Student Writer On Oct. 12, Edmond officials will ask citizens to vote on a road improvement bond. The bond will fund the widening of roads and intersections and the synchronization of signals through Edmond's main traffic arteries, said Joe Davis, Edmond city engineer.

"Widening Broadway, 15th and Second Street will reduce traffic congestion in and out of Edmond and make it easier for students who commute to the university," said Davis.

"The most congested areas will be dealt with first," said Davis.

"The plan for widening roads and altering signals was developed on a priority basis. The roads were rated on capacity: congestion, air quality, surface condition and incidence of traffic accidents," said Davis.

"If the main artery roads in and

out of Edmond are widened, commuter traffic congestion in the down town area will be reduced," said Davis. "We hope that increased access to 1-35 will lower the traffic congestion on Broadway," he said.

The proposed bond issue is for $11.8 million and would be paid out over a period of eight years through a small increase in Edmond's property tax. For instance, a person owning a $50,000 home would have an increase of $3.75 on his monthly property tax, said Wonda Cantrell, executive vice president of the Edmond Chamber of Commerce.

The city of Edmond will except bids from contractors for the necessary construction. Edmond's last road bond issue was passed in 1981, said Cantrell.

"The plan was developed for safety as well a convenience," said Cantrell. "This plan is important to Edmond's growing community," she said.

"All of the proposed projects

will benefit UCO," said Tom. Minnick, traffic engineering supervisor for the city of Edmond.

"During the lunch hour, students at UCO saturate the city streets causing increased congestion. Widening the arterial roads around town will decrease the congestion and increase the safety for students and other commuters," said Minnick.

Second street is the main access point for students at UCO. The project will add additional turning lanes on Second street allowing commuting students better access to UCO, said Minnick.

"With rising enrollment rates at UCO and the added growth of Edmond's population, we need to pass this bond issue on Oct. 12," said Minnick.

"If the bond issue doesn't pass, Edmond's operating budget will not cover the necessary improvements and the projects would be dealt with on a priority bases when funding became available," said Cantrell.

Suspect in Oklahoma City murders captured in Texas OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma City police went to south Texas to question a man charged in the weekend killings of two men at his home.

Wesley Wayne Williams, 34, was arrested at a l3ellmead, Texas motel Tuesday after his girlfriend left him long enough to tell police his whereabouts.

Police had been looking for Williams on two first-degree murder counts filed Monday in the deaths of Timothy McCain, 31, of Oklahoma City and Ronald Harris, 33, of Corpus Christi, Texas.

The men had been shot several times each at Williams' home, and had been dead less than 24 hours when his mother found them Sat-

urday, police said.

Police found a third body Tuesday, which they believe is that of Williams' father, Marion, who lived across the street. The man had been shot to death and buried in an Oklahoma City field, police said.

Police say Wesley Williams left Oklahoma City on Saturday with Sharon Carol Roe, Harris' sister and Williams' girlfriend, and her son.

Their car apparently broke down in Bellraead. Roe escaped from the motel room with her child and went to police, who checked out her story and then made the arrest.

Bronchos hear Lions roar East Texas State comes from behind to snap UCO win streak

By Scott Moore Student writer Any loss hurts, but often times how you lost determines the degree of hurt.

Losing by three when you were up by 18 can hurt a lot.

The University of Central Oklahoma led the Lions of East Texas State 21-3 with 4:26 left in the first half but ETSU scored 27 straight points before eventually winning the Lone Star Conference contest 30-27 in front of the East Texas State faithful Saturday night in Commerce, Texas.

The Bronchos, now 4-1, led big early but found themselves rallying late to try and capture a dramatic win. East Texas, 3-2 and a pre-season pick to finish second in the conference, scored 14 points with less than 5 minutes left in the first half, then reeled off 13 to start the second to take the lead at 30-21.

The usually solid Broncho defense yielded 403 yards total offense by the Lions. East Texas St. quarterback Clint Dolezel disected the UCO secondary for 316 yards.

He completed 21 of 36 passes and threw for three touchdowns.

The Broncho offense gained 402 yards of their own. Senior tailback Tyrone Jones had another impressive day, leading all rushers with 167 yards on 24 carries

and scoring two touchdowns. The second wave of UCO's tailback attack, senior Glenn Starks, picked up 93 yards on 14 carries and grabbed one touchdown. UCO's passing game was a tale of two halves. Senior quarterback Terry Payne completed 8 of 12 attempts for 113 yards and a touchdown in the first half, but went 2-of-9 for just 24 yards in the second.

The Bronchos will try to rebound on the road, heading back to Texas to face the Wildcats of Abilene Christian at 7 p.m. Saturday night.

East Texas St. began their rally when quarterback Dolezel hit Raymond McGuire for a 22-yard scoring strike with less than 4 minutes left in the first half to make the score 21-10.

Dolezel and McGuire then struck again shortly before the end of the half, hooking up for a 20yarder to trail by only four at the half.

The second half brought a thunderstorm; both from the sky and on the field.

The Lions struck quick, with Dolezel throwing his third touchdown pass of the game with 13:31 left in the third. The 23-yard pass and the extra point gave the Lions a 24-211ead; a lead that they would not relinquish.

East Texas then made it 30-21 when a Terry Payne pass was

picked off by ETSU safety Brian Gow and returned 25 yards for a touchdown mid-way through the third quarter.

Then UCO began its own rally.

AfterEas t Texas drove to the UCO 8, Broncho Cornerback Elton Rhodes intercepted his second pass of the game and returned it 70 yards to the ETSU 30. Jones went in from 3-yards out 8 plays later to pull within 3 with 9:30 left in the

UCO runners win Jamboree

By Justin Harper Vista Sports Editor

Paced by Gary Hamer and Jason Larabee, Central Oklahoma's men's cross country team grabbed top honors in Oklahoma State's 56th annual Cowboy Jamboree Saturday in Stillwater.

Hamer raced to a second-place finish in the 8,000meter race with a time of 26:52. Larabee followed right behind finishing in 27:04 for third-place.

For Hamer it was his fourth top-5 finish in four races. It was Larabee's first.

The Bronchos totaled 34 points, 14 fewer than runner-up Southwestern (Kan.), to claim first place in the men's junior college division.

"Our guy's ran a pretty good race, especially Gary and Jason," Parent said. "For a freshman, Jason has

Darren Johnson (11th), Todd Smoot (13th) and Jon Brown (17th) all finished in the top-20 for the Bronchos.

The women's cross country team finished eighth in the NAIA/NCAA II division with 215 points.

Ursula Wabaunsee was the top Lady Broncho finisher with a placing of 82nd in 22:37.

Ashley Mathis was the second UCO runner in, finishing in 85th-place. Sheri White (92nd) and Francie Briscoe (97th) were the other Lady Bronchos to place.

A possible game-breaking interception by UCO's Phil Sexton mid-way through the fourth quarter was nullified by a facemask penalty; the interception would have put the ball inside the Lion 20. But on that same drive, UCO blocked an East Texas St. punt at the Lion 28. The Bronchos came away empty however, when the lion defense stiffened and Payne' s
